We went back to the doctor yesterday morning for our 37 week appointment and it was just as I thought....no progress had been made in 4 days! Katelyn's still doing well but she's not quite ready to make her debut. Our next appointment is next Friday (the 6th) so there better be some change in the next 10 days!
In other news, we celebrated our 1st anniversary this weekend! We spent Saturday in Houston getting some last-minute things that we needed. We had a nice dinner and did some shopping....overall, a great day! And, on Sunday, we thawed the top of our wedding cake and each had a piece. Good flavor....kinda dry. I guess spending a year in the freezer will do that. It's hard to believe that we were in St. Maarten on our honeymoon this time last year. Time flies when you're having fun....and getting ready for a baby!

Kate's Making a Move
3 weeks and 3 days to go! We went to the doctor this morning.....Katelyn's still doing great and she's dropped! I'll spare you the details but we're making progress....she said she might even be here a little early....our luck, that means she'll be late. I asked if she could take a guess at her weight and she said that right now she'd say between 6 & 7 pounds! My belly's not as big as most people at this point, so I sort of expected that to be her weight at birth...but I guess it's the way I'm carrying her that makes her look smaller than she is! We go back on Tuesday....we'll see if anything changes in 4 days!
In other news, our 1st anniversary is Sunday and we're spending it at.....wait for it......
Babies r Us! We're actually going to celebrate tomorrow because we've got some other errands to run in Houston. And we have to exchange the duplicate gifts that we got at last weekend's baby showers. We're hoping that we'll be able to take a trip for our 2nd anniversary! Have a great weekend....stay tuned for more news!

Cupcakes, Deviled Eggs, and Showers
A lot has taken place since my last update. We celebrated a busy 4th of July by going to 3 parties on the 3rd and attending the parade in Independence on the 4th. We had a great time making the rounds, but it was pretty warm so I spent most of the holiday weekend trying to stay cool!
We went back to the doctor on July 7th and not much had changed. Kate's still growing, she's got a good heartbeat, and she's still head down.
My fabulous sister-in-law, Gretchen, is getting married in October. So, on the 10th, we had a kitchen bridal shower for her. And, for this shower, I made 4 dozen cupcakes and 4 dozen deviled eggs! So I spent the day before in my kitchen, making a huge mess....but my canine vacuum cleaners are happy to report that the cupcakes were excellent! I was pretty pleased by how it all turned out and we had a great time at the shower.....Congrats Aunt GG and soon-to-be Uncle Chad!
This weekend was busy again with 2 baby showers for me and Kate! I had a wonderful time at both and Kate received some fabulous presents...we're very blessed to have such great family and friends who have already begun spoiling our child! Thanks to all of the hostesses for all that you did to make this weekend so special for us. And, as you can see from the pictures below, we now need a bigger house! My cousin's 5-year-old wisely noted that I'm not going to have to go shopping for a while. I'm going to be spending most of this week finding a place for everything and writing thank-you notes!
I will be 36 weeks tomorrow (yikes....it's getting close and I'm getting anxious!) so we will go back to the doctor this Friday, the 23rd. From that point on, we will see the doctor every week and this week she will begin checking for signs that Katelyn's birthday is getting closer. Hopefully, she'll be able to give us an idea of how big she is and if we can expect her to arrive close to the due date or if she's going to make her grand entrance early!
Blog updates will be more frequent from here on out....so stay tuned!
