Any minute now...

T-minus 2 and a half days. This weekend we finished getting all the items left on the registry for Abby. We should be as ready as a pair of new parents can be and we can't wait to meet her.

Jennifer is trying to stay relaxed and calm over these last few days even though the size of her belly has made moving, walking and sleeping a little more uncomfortable than normal. Moises is doing a good job of making her as comfortable as she can be in these last few days

Today we went to lunch with BB, Pappa A, Aunt Rita, Katie & Greg. We ate at one of our favorite restaurants, Babe's Chicken, yum!

We had a false alarm on Friday of this week, but the doctor said Abby was just not quite ready to come out, but we'll see her sooner rather than later. Even though it seems like the days just creep slowly by while we wait!

Much Love,

Moises & Jennifer

Happy Father's Day!

10 days until D-Day and we got to celebrate Moises' first Father's day while awaiting the arrival of little Abigail. First, we had a nice breakfast followed by some relaxing time together. Last night we had a nice dinner out, which we know will become few and far between very soon!

At the last doctor's appointment Jennifer was only dilated 1 cm. Doctor says everything looks good for both mom and baby. Our next appointment is on Tuesday so we'll see if there has been any progression. There have been some mild contractions on and off, but nothing consistent or very painful.

We are hoping that she'll come naturally so that an induction will not be required, but we understand that if she goes very far past her due date we will. So we are praying and hoping that she comes soon! We just can't wait to meet her and introduce her to everyone!

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful fathers in our lives! We wish we could have seen all of you today!

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer

A month to go!

We have moved in to the final month countdown until Abigail arrives! It seems like the days have started to move slower as we anxiously await her arrival. In the meantime, we've gotten all the necessities together for the hospital trip and her return home from the hospital. Jennifer had her 36 week check up yesterday and all is well. Good strong heartbeat, for mom & baby. Jennifer is still within the healthy weight range and blood pressure is doing well. Abigail is approximately 6 pounds and 18 inches long. Just one more week and she'll be considered a full term baby!

We'd like to take a moment to be thankful for the fact that our loved ones have remained safe despite the horrific storms that have ravaged the southern part of the country the last couple weeks. It was quite scary for us in Texas last week as we endured the tornadoes, hail and rain. Thankfully, the tornado that was in Irving did not cause anyone to lose their life and it was good practice for our emergency plan! We thank God for keeping our loved ones safe and we pray for everyone affected by the storms.

Much love,
Moises & Jennifer
