Baby Update...

Time for a baby update! We are 33 weeks along, 7 to go or at the rate I am measuring maybe 5 weeks. We went to the doctor today, changed our appointments to every 2 weeks and scheduled an ultra-sound for August 7th. The doctor wants to make sure we don't end up with a 10 lb baby again. Plus, he is going to be on vacation and I refuse to have another dr. deliver our baby!

We have so much to do to get ready for this baby. At this point, we have a crib set up in a room full of toys with half the bedding in it. It's so hard to look in that room and think that in less than 7 weeks a baby is going to be in that room. We have LOTS to do and not a lot of time.

Name update... as most of you know we decided on the name Morgan Riley a while back! Well... as much as I thought we would NEVER change her name, WE DID! After tossing around some other names with my sisters(peer pressure)we have decided her name will be "Riley Shayne". Okay, so Shane made the final decision, but they had a lot to do with changing her name. So we had, Morgan Riley, Ren Riley, Ren Shayne and Riley Shayne... after almost 4 months we are sticking with Riley Shayne! Everyone of the grand kids on my side of the family have a "family name" in their name, to keep up with the tradition we used Shane's middle/first name. He is really happy! So... now when you hear us mention Riley, you know!

Hope everyone is doing well. We will keep you updated as the next few weeks go by...

I like it. (why wouldn't I??) :) I would have loved any thing you picked out. I can't wait to hold her in my arms.

Oh! I think it's great! Beautiful. If you need any help setting up the room - I would love to help, even if it's just putting stuff together. After this week, Robbie and I slow down a litle bit again. And I can't believe she could be here in just 5 weeks! Ivy was born 7 weeks ago, and it seems like last week. Crazy! We love you and are glad everything is going good!

I think that's adorable! I love having family names as middle names (my kids have that too). What a beautiful name!

I love the name Riley! It is adorable! I am so excited for you! I'll bet you will be so glad when she is here! Once you start the "every two weeks" Dr appts, it goes pretty quickly! Sure love you guys!!
