It is so hard to believe that we are at the 35 week point in the pregnancy. I say we, because I hope that in some aspects it has been a team effort, though I can promise you Julie's doing all the heavy work :)In the past 35 weeks, I've seen Julie blossom from a loving wife to a loving mother. She's so excited about this baby (I am excited, too, but there is just something about Mothers) that I know she is counting down the days ... 35 to be exact until she can hold Turner. In the past week, following our unfortunate trip to the hospital, a la Burger King, we've been blessed with two fantastic showers and an outpouring of gifts from friends, family and colleagues. There are two more showers left on the schedule and all I can say is that Turner is going to have a very posh childhood. There are warmers for bottles and wipes, there are gymnasiums for the floor that have all the bells and whistles that would blow Walt Disney's imagination, not to mention some of the most adorable clothes!
The picture above is from our good friend and family photographer extraordinaire Reagan Powell (check out Memories of a Lifetime on Flickr). We had these shots done on Mother's Day and Julie just looks so amazing. I joked that I was only eye-candy for the photo shoot, but anyone that sees these knows that I am by far the luckier one! We've been so blessed by God to have every need met, a healthy pregnancy, a loving home to bring our baby into, and such great friends. We're 35 days away and I can't wait to see what other awesome things God has prepared for us.
