One Month!

Just a quick FYI...exactly one month before Olivia is suppose to be brought into this world!!!

Pictures from the shower!

Her room!

Finally an update (I know that's what your thinking!!!). I want to thank everyone so much who made our baby shower as special as it was. I can't tell you how much it meant to Josh and I to have all the love and support that we did. We are new at this "parent" thing but we are sure that with so many people around us we will do just fine!!! We are nearing the end of this 9-month adventure. Olivia is scheduled to be delivered Dec. 19th, although she may chose to come earlier!! We have almost completed her room, we still have to put up the border but we were so excited to set up her crib that we decided to finish the border later! Olivia is still very active and the doctor has told me several times that her heartbeat sounds healthy so we shouldn't worry. I can't wait to bring her home to all her cute new baby things! I hope everyone knows how much we really appreciate their love and support, we keep you all in our prayers.

Here are some pictures of her room!!!!!! Please ignore the date on these I forgot to set my camera!

This is a blanket a friend had made for me!


Haha, what he doesn't know can't hurt him!





Those monkeys are soooo cute!






This is a little dark but this is her room all put together!

Her very special picture! We love it so much and it means as much to us as it will to her one day!

Her changing table, I had Josh practice on a teddy bear first! He did a good job!

70 Days To Go!!

Whew, 70 days and counting!!! I have a doctors appointment today to see if I'm ok to return to work or not. Josh has started his new job in Longview and he is really enjoying it there. We are going to try to get Olivia's room painted this weekend, once her room gets put together I will be very happy!!! There isn't much to updated now but soon I will have many new things to post! We are getting closer to the arrival of our little girl and I couldn't be more ready!!!!!

2 + 1 = 3

Hello Everyone -

Josh and I have decided to create a blog to share with all our family and friends. Today is our 1 year anniversary and it has been a very busy year. We bought a house and 6 months ago we got news that we would no longer be a family of two, we are expecting our first child! This news was a BIG surprise but nothing could bring us more joy then growing our little family. We are having a little girl and her name is going to be Olivia Renee Leonard she is due on December 23rd 2008. She is growing fast now and so is my tummy! The doctors say Olivia is healthy which is such a blessing! It has been an amazing experience although there have been some bumps in the road. I don't know why they call it morning sickness because it turned out to be all day sickness and I'm one of those unfortunate moms who have been sick throughout the whole pregnancy. I stayed in the hospital for a couple of days this last week and now I'm on bed rest until the doctors tells me otherwise. Olivia is laying on a nerve and causing me a lot of pain (I hope this is not a glimpse into the future on what trouble she will cause as a teenager). Even though its been a rough pregnancy I wouldn't trade our little Olivia for anything. We are very excited to get her room all ready, we will be sure to post those pictures as they come. Here are a few pictures we would like to share with everyone! Please leave comments we would love to hear from you! Check back often we will keep this updated with all the new baby news!

We painted these for her room!

She has her hands over her eyes

This is the bassinet that a dear friend I work with gave us, we can't wait to replace that teddy bear with Olivia!!!
