My cousin Holly's husband, Kevan, professionally creates shorts/films of children and families. His company is called Origin Productions. He played this video for us as a surprise and of course we all cried. It's of William and his cousins Noah and Sydney. We knew he was capturing stills and video of the cousins but had no idea he was going to turn it into something so special. Enjoy, and if you are interested in having him create a short for you and your family, let me know.

40+ weeks
Funny how the babynamey.com thing on the right side of the blog says "Your baby is 2 days old."
Yesterday at 40 weeks and 1 day.
We are patiently awaiting the arrival of the little guy b/c we know we'll be meeting him within 1 week! We're enjoying spending many date nights together and I'm getting lots of great sleep, which I am very thankful for.

Nursery
I shared with you our inspiration nursery a while ago.
What we took from this is a slightly altered version of the letters wall and brown and white furniture. We had Kate Duff, a friend from high school, do the letters/numbers wall. She did such an amazing job. We are thrilled with her work! This is the sketch she drew up for us. We changed some of letters and added a 2 and a 3. (No, his name is not hidden in here. We've gotten that question a couple of times.)
She did most of it by hand, using a laser to trace straight lines. The rest, like the 3, were done with stencils. She's a perfectionist, which is a good match for me.
Complete!
Dixie loves her baby brother's room. She can't wait to be a big sister.
Cardboard Safari. Josh put this together piece-by-piece.
We want to get this to go above the dresser, but without a name and a birthday, we have to wait on it.
Update on mom: I am 39 weeks and 5 days and feeling great. Definitely can tell it's going to happen soon...feeling more and more pressure. Baby will most likely be here no later than Friday, 2/4, but we're hoping it's sooner than that.
Update on dad: He's feeling great and is sore from playing tennis on Sunday. Can't wait to be a daddy!
Update on our families: Some of them may be a little impatient with us since we haven't finalized a name...totally understandable. They are all waiting by their phones. Each time we call they think it's "that call." Soon enough!

37 even though I'm almost 38
Like I told my teammate, Aaron Leifeste, I haven't posted anything since week 28 because I don't look any different. This is not true. Here's last week's pic at 37. Tomorrow I'm 38, which means I have 2 weeks (2 weeks!) until the due date. Pretty soon you'll see nursery pics, but I am not ready to post those yet. We have a couple of walls that need decor, but that might not happen until post no-named baby boy Womack's arrival. We are so ready to meet him and go through the labor and delivery process. Until then, we are enjoying spending time together and sleeping as much as possible.
And here's my nephew, Noah, holding my 5 1/2 week old niece, Sydney. Uncle Josh is head over heels for her. :)

27 weeks
I've been a bad blogger. I'm now 27 weeks and I'm twice as big as 23 weeks, but still need to take today's picture to show you. Things have been good with pregnancy. I'll be in the 3rd trimester next week, which is crazy! We are slowly getting the nursery ready. We have the crib in the box and we've painted the room. BUT, we are repainting the room b/c we don't like it. At some point when the nursery is more put together, I'll post pictures. Here's a picture of my most favorite nursery:
We are modeling our nursery after this, but it won't look just like this. I don't even know if it will look like this at all, but I still love it and we'll love baby boy Womack's just as much!
He is still just our little monkey, as he remains nameless. We have a short list, but this baby might not have a name until he arrives - and we are fine with that. He's also moving a lot and I'm really enjoying that. I actually felt a roll the other day instead of just a kick. What a wild feeling!
