As the title suggests this will be a rather short post tonight. Mainly because there just isn't a lot going on at the moment. I did have my monthly doctors visit this week and everything is going wonderfully. Baby boy is measuring a little bit ahead of his expected due date by about a week so I was told to not be surprised to make it to July 21st. I couldn't have been more pleased. Brad and I are very anxious to meet him.
I've gained 5 lbs since my last appointment which made my doctor very happy. It was quite a jump up from any of my previous appointments. I'm also starting to have some very minor contractions at this point. Last Monday was a little more intense than usual but things seemed to calm down after a couple of hours. The doctor told me to just be vigilant about it and come in when I think it's necessary.
On to the better news. We've picked out a name and have finished the basics of the baby's room. I've even uploaded some of the pictures for you to see! We've decided on Reid Harrison Major for the baby's name. Reid was one of the few names we both absolutely loved and then we decided to use my maiden name Harrison because, as it turns out, I was the last Harrison in my family. So now I can put all the pressure on Reid when he gets older to pass on the name if he wants to. The weight is no longer on my shoulders. :) Reid Harrison Major has a nice flow to it too, so that was a nice bonus!
Now on to the pictures. Brad took another picture of my ever-expanding belly. He likes to point out that soon you won't be able to see the fireplace behind me. Isn't that sweet?! That picture is followed up by a panoramic view of Reid's room. You don't have to look too closely to see the three pictures I cropped together. And finally just a close up of Reid's crib and bedding. You may notice he already has a little friend waiting for him. :) As always you can click on the pictures to make them bigger.
