Landon Finn Norley

Yesterday we went to the doctor for an ultra sound to see what position the baby is in. I am now 36 weeks and measuring at 32 weeks, the baby is progressing very well and he is fully developed. Baby Landon is head down, so we were going to try and do a natural birth, which is called a Vbac, but at the doctor yesterday she explained all the risk factors of what it entails. It made us very scared being that my practice is one of the only practices in South Florida that will deliver via Vbac. So after a very long story, we decided to have another C-section. We haven't set a date yet, next Tuesday we will be deciding on a date with my midwife. We are thinking the dates will be set between April 12-18th, which would land me at 38-39 weeks pregnant. We are very excited for his arrival! :)

More maternity/family 2011

A few maternity/family photos... 2011

Sunday we took our family/ maternity photos at a local park in Jupiter, its called Riverbend Park. Our good friend Kris Wagner his sister-in-law, actually took the shots. She is amazing and she only does this for a hobby!! I only have a few so far so i will post a few as they come in. :)

Fun pics..

Here are some phone pics I have taken of Noah this week..

Crazy hair after his fohawk all day! :)

Silly boy wanted to wear both hats, this actually lasted for a few hours.

Noah and his pepper in her doggie bed..

Boys and Boats!

For Christmas one of my gifts from Nick , was a new lens for my cannon rebel camera. I love it! It has a great zoom and image stabilizer. When we went to the beach on Sunday i finally got to see what the lens can really do! :)

Another exciting thing we decided on today was this little baby boys name. With Noah it was so easy to choose a name, but for this one we couldn't decide as quickly! Nick and I liked totally different names, the two we were down to were, Brayden Taylor and Landon Finn. We have decided on Landon Finn! We cannot wait for 8 1/2 more weeks to meet him! This Sunday we are actually doing our family/ maternity photos, we are very excited! As soon as we have them i will post some.

Beach!

Finally the weather has warmed up enough for us to spend some time at the beach. Sunday Noah and I met Amie, the three kids, Jake, Brittany, and Tiffany at the beach. It was such a beautiful day out, the water is still really cold, which is okay considering our shark infested waters. :) This evening was yet again beautiful so Noah and i went on a late evening walk and took our puppy Pepper for the first time.. She loved it as did Noah, and for Mommy, it is a great exercise! hopefully we will be having more of these nights, Noah and Pepper enjoyed it as well as myself getting ready for baby boy to get here in 9 weeks! :)

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day! It was a busy day for us, both of us had class, and Nick worked all day, so needless to say we didn't have any special " date night" plans. My mom invited Noah and I over for dinner, and on our way I got a call from Nick saying class was cancelled so we were actually able to spend the evening together with our Noah.. Very rare and love when it happens! Valentines day is also the day 9 years ago Nick and I began dating.. quite along time! It is also my 30 week point! 10 weeks left until this unnamed baby boy gets here! Cannot wait!

Memory

For Christmas Noah got Toy Story memory. He gets a little excited when all of the pieces are laid out on the table, so when him and I play I only use half of the memory cards. This way its easier for him to find a match, we're still trying to figure it out all the way, but he's getting the hang of it. We were playing yesterday and he has new friends that he brings everywhere with him, they are part of the "little people" toy collection, and he loves them!

Sorry for the poor quality pic, my phone camera didn't flash.
