Last month!

Here I am...37 weeks...maybe 3 more weeks to go. We'll see what Baby Beau has to say about that!

Still doing prenatal yoga. I love this class! I have been doing yoga since I was 18 weeks along. It is harder than you would think...or maybe I'm just pregnant and carrying a wee bit more weight to balance and hold in those lunges :)

Jake had me use Grandma Gerty's chair to go up the stairs at Nan and Bop's house. Trying to take it easy so I don't go into labor during Jake's finals the next 2 weeks!!

Here is my sweet mom sewing the bedskirt onto the crib. There were some extra poles and bolts, and she had to hand sew around them on her knees after the skirt was in place. She is amazing!!!

Jake and Granny Janny always working together. They make a pretty good team doing house projects :)

Ahhhh....it's done!!! Here are some pictures of Beau's room!

Didn't Mom did an AWESOME job on the crib bedding and curtains!?! I absolutely love it. I could not have bought something half this cute- thank you Mom!

This is my armoire- my first faux painting project!

Only your mom will add sweet touches like this on your bedskirt.








This is Beau- legged. He and Beau- dacious will share this room.




Here we are! It's hard to believe that there will be a BABY in that crib soon!

The 8 months pregnant adventures of Jake and Jamie

Wild and crazy adventures? Not so much! But Jake and I have been having a great time with our friends and family which can be sort of adventurous in a new parent kind of way!

We had some of Jake's buddies and their sweet wives from dental school over for some grilling and hanging out. Drew and Kristin, Nick and Ali, Dave and Rachel and us had a blast just hanging out in our cozy living room. We busted out the German beer steins- Jake likes to use these being that we carted them around Europe for 2 weeks on our backs! It was really fun to get to know the girls some more...next time we get together we will bringing baby Beau!

Posing for all the girls to snap their picture. Thanks boys!

Jake's spring break activity: sitting around by our fire pit...how many times did we sit on our patio just relaxing? Can't count and so worth it. I'm pretty lucky to have a husband I can sit around with doing, well, not a whole lot, and we have so much fun!

Kate Potchad's Birthday Party- there's the birthday girl! Turning ONE already??

Patricia and I- I'm 34 and she's 36 weeks in this pic...she had her twins 1 week later!

All the new dads hanging out...yup, they're still just as cool :)

LOVING my shirt that Aunt Kate made for me!!!

Notice Jake's shirt...

Uncle Matt in the sweet, sometimes a little spooky to Kate, Emory and Landon bunny outfit. What a sport he was!

Opening day at the Royals game

Celebrating dad's birthday at our house complete with all his favorites: grilled marinated chicken kabobs, veggies, corn on the cob, french fries, bread, salad...and finishing it off with a cigar and cherry crisp! We sat outside for a few hours by the fire listening to the Brazilian Tommy Bahama CD we got him while he sang every song. He loved it.

Hanging out with my parents- they're pretty fun :)

Getting to see the twins for the first time- Ava Grace and John Carter!! Patricia is such a trooper- she went full term with those 2, and now is blessed with 2 healthy babies!

The babies next to their daddy...kinda look about the size of a football! He looks pretty proud:)

We are so excited that our little boy will have so many friends to grow up with here!!
