Trey's First Photo Session with Mommy!

Hello blogging world! Will I ever post on here regularly again?! I sure hope so! I will do my best!

We are finally settling in to life with our precious little boy. Some days are better than others. I weighed him last Tuesday and he was already 9 lbs 9 ozs! I will weigh him tomorrow and I bet he'll have gained another pound. Crazy! My little boy is becoming not so little anymore. Man that sure happens fast!

We were able to make it to church the past two weekends. That was sure nice! But wow! Who knew taking a newborn places would be so difficult?! I can't just 'run right in' anymore. I have to carefully plan my outings. And who knew my life would revolve around his feedings. That sure makes it difficult too. But we are getting the hang of things. Slowly but surely!

My goal this week is to have a little photography session for Trey. I will post those pictures as soon as I get them done. Wish me luck!

Trey Allen Beverly

Trey Allen Beverly was born on Wednesday, May 13, 2009 at 5:57 pm.

He was 7 pounds 13 ounces and 21 inches long.

Right now he has light brown hair and dark blue eyes (which I think will turn hazel pretty soon).

He is one long and skinny little boy with the longest feet I have ever seen on a baby!

Were doing pretty good. It's been a whirlwind with lots of family and visitors which we have enjoyed but we are looking forward to things settling down a bit.

So here is what you all have been waiting for...

Idaho Statesman for Cheap!

Any of you looking to snag the Idaho Statesman for Sunday coupons?!

I have been on the look out for a couple months now. If you go directly through the Statesman its $2.00 for a Sunday paper and I wasn't about to pay that when I could go to the dollar store down the street and buy it for $1.00. A pain, but well worth it.

Well, I just got back from Fred Meyer on Federal Way. There was a guy there selling the Idaho Statesman for pretty cheap.

$2.00 for all seven days
$1.50 for Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Holidays
And
$1.00 for Sunday and Holidays

And of course the paper is delivered right to your house. So I totally signed up for a year! Yeah!

The guy gave me his name and number and said that if anyone called him he would be happy to give them the same deal! His name is Brian Grimes and his number is 630-362-2445.

Happy couponing!

36 Weeks!

A Small Update

I know I haven't been great about writing on my blog. By the time I get home I'm just so tired and I swear my brain has partly shut down. But I'll have plenty of updates once the baby is born!

I'll be 37 weeks on Wednesday! My check-ups are going great. I've had a tiny bit of progress, but not much. I'm not expecting much progress. Really I'm counting on going over my due date so I know there is plenty of time. It's just a really, really, REALLY long wait!

My last day at work is May 1st. It will be sad to leave but I'm really looking forward to this next chapter in our lives. And let me tell you, it's really hard to still work when I have an end date. I feel like I should be at home making last minute touches to everything.

I can't wait to meet our little Trey!

Baby Shower

Last Saturday was my baby shower and it was so much fun! My sister, Michelle, and best friend, Brittany, did a great job on everything! I know they worked very hard making sure it was the perfect shower for me and it was!

Thank you to all who came. You all made me feel so special and loved and I am so glad I will be bringing my children up around such Godly, loving, caring women.

And I think everyone has spoiled me plenty! I feel MUCH more prepared with the gifts I have received and after putting together the babies room this weekend I feel organized and settled. Now I just have to wait five more weeks to bring home our baby boy. Ohhhh, that's a long time to wait....

My sister was running around like crazy during the party but here are some pictures she was able to snap while she could.
