First Bath

We gave Lucas his first bath this week. Well I guess it was technically his second bath since the hospital gave him one. He wasn't a big fan but he didn't scream as much as I thought he would. Anyways, here is a pic of the little man after his bath....

Lucas Chandler Justice

We welcomed our sweet baby boy into to the world on Monday, October 10th at 12:19 pm. He was much smaller than the doctors told us. They expected him to be at least 8 lbs and he was 6 lbs 4 ounces. He lost a lot of weight and is now 5 lbs 13 ounces. He is such a little peanut. We are madly in love with him.

Tomorrow

Life as we know it will officially change forever tomorrow. I can't believe that this swing will have a real baby in it this time next weekend. We have a scheduled c-section tomorrow at noon. I am so anxious I barely slept at all last night and probably won't sleep a wink tonight. Although, I hope to get some sleep since I know it will be a long time before I will get to sleep again. Even though our house is filled with baby stuff and the nursery has been completed for a long time, I still don't think it will all sink in until he is born and we meet him in person.

We are so excited to meet you tomorrow, Lucas! We know it will be love at first sight! Love, Mom & Dad

31 Weeks

Wow, I am finally getting closer to the finish line. I love feeling baby kicks and movements. Every time he moves around he lets me know that he is doing well in there.

The heat this summer has been awful and I am really looking forward to some cooler fall weather. Of course, the main reason I am looking forward to fall is so we can meet our little one. :-)

Burrell/Zeller Wedding

It has been so long since I have seen Lindsey (she lives in Texas). Lindsey and I pledged Alpha Phi together and lived across the hall from each other in the sorority house. We traveled to Morgantown for the event which was held at Hotel Morgan. It was a beautiful wedding and I am so glad I got to attend the wedding. It was also great to catch up with sorority sisters I haven't seen in a long time.

Nursery Completed

Atkins-Fielding Wedding

We headed down to Charlotte, NC over the July 4th weekend to attend the wedding of Jessica Atkins and Stephen Fielding. It was a beautiful wedding and a good time was had by all. I do have to say, being pregnant at weddings is not fun for preggos! I still managed to have a good time though!
