The Countdown to D-Day!!


So we are exactly one week away from being a family of 4. I feel like although we have lots to do, I spend a lot of time waiting, and forgetting everything that is important. My brain is turning into mush, and my belly is growing faster than I ever thought possible!! Luckilly Tyler and Tolkien and all of our friends and family give me a bit of patience and remind me of things that need to be done.

Tolkien's Grandma Donna is coming into town this Friday and then Grandma and Grandpa Browne are coming on Sunday, so they will be here for the arrival. Tolkien is spending his last days as an only child becoming a musician. Possibly to impress all of his grandparents and aunts and uncles. And possibly to really find himslef before he has to show his baby bro or sis the ropes of being a "Perry."

This is a photo of Tolkien starting to really "rock out" as he would say, and show us his skills. As long as he doesnt throw his harmonica at the baby, I think we'll be good! Hope you are all well.

2 pregnant chicks!!


Although these days I feel like a side show everywhere I go, the night I went out to dinner with my friend Jen who is also pregnant, made quite the double take entertainment for others! Everyone gives an up and down to one pregnant chick,,,,,, but two in a row....... Now theres something to oggle at!! It was pretty funny. Here we are before taking down a fondue dinner! Can't wait to have the babies' first play date in a few weeks!

3 Weeks and 2 Days .....But who's counting??


So I guess that the excitement and anxiety have set in!! I can't wait to have this baby now. Im getting quite uncomfortable with what seems like some sort of rhinoserus strapped to my stomache. There aren't too many positions that are comfortable anymore. But as my to do lists get shorter and the days get longer, I know it has to be soon!

We had our Docotr's appt yesterday, and surprisingly for everyone I am already diallated 2 Centimeters. This was new to me since I never dialated with Tolkien. Even the doctor was surprised. Tyler is starting to get his work at school finished up these next couple weeks, so that he can take some time for the baby, when it arrives. I thought I would post this picture of me and my gianormous belly for all of you. Hope you are doing well, and hope ot hear from you soon.
