Busy, Busy, Busy

It's all hands on deck in preparation for Baby Copee's arrival. We moved Anna's dresser drawers out of her room today. This dresser has the hardware on the back for the changing table. Look at all the stuff on Anna's bed. She has been the GREATEST!! She wants to help anyway she can. In the above photo, Anna is putting all the stuff back in her new dresser drawers. (the ones we swapped out of Aaron's room).

Constructing the Nursery II

Here my friend, James Williams, gets handy with a screwdriver as we work together to build the crib for Baby Copee. If you build it, he will come. Well he's coming whether we build it or not so it would make sense for us to get busy like we have been doing today. As you may recall from a previous blogpost, the baby doctor thinks Baby Copee might be here even before the end of December.

Constructing The Nursery

My friend, James Williams, gave up his rainy Saturday to come help me assemble the baby's crib. Thankfully, Angie was able to find the instructions because I would've hated to have to reverse engineer this thing. We are transforming Aaron's old room into the nursery. Lot's of movement going on at Copee House these days as we get ready for the new arrival.

Pregnancy: 33 Week Update

I'm having lots of contractions, and the baby has dropped considerably over the last 2 days. Doc says perhaps any day. If he comes tomorrow, she says he may be a little rare, but not expecting any complications. She would like to see him stay and bake at least another 2-3 weeks. In other words, we WON'T be making it to the Jan. 16th due date ;-)

Baby Copee is moving around quite a bit, or should I say wallowing, and having lengthy bouts of hiccups. I actually slept last night for the first time in a week. It felt so goooooooood!!

We have even less time than we thought, so we are in a mad rush to get the nursery assembled and everything ready!!!! Aaron has moved from his bedroom across the hall (which is now the nursery) to a new bedroom downstairs. It has been dubbed "The Man Cave". He is all excited. Our thanks to Pawpaw, the foreman!

Preparing for Baby Copee Arrival

Here we are at 31 weeks. Anna can't wait to meet her new baby brother. In this picture, she points out where he is right now. Our church, New Life Christian Fellowship, poured our so much love upon us tonight at Baby Copee's baby shower. We are declaring in faith that this baby is destined for greatness in God. This is such a blessing for all of us.

Thank you for sharing in our joy.

It's a Boy!

Here you can definitely see .... "it's a boy."

This ultrasound pic was taken a few weeks back at 20-weeks. Baby is much bigger now.

We're Expecting!!

We are now 30 weeks pregnant with a new little baby boy. Pictured here is Angie's pooch. We still don't have a name picked out for the child but are confident we'll agree upon one before the big day arrives.

Official due date: 1/16/09

If Angie holds true to form, she'll be about 2 weeks early.

Baby watch begins in earnest towards the end of December.
