Wesley Gordon Spicer is here!!


He's our sweet little boy. His stats were 8lb 5oz and 20 inches long. He seems to be a pretty content baby so far and we just can't keep from kissing on him. The following are some more pictures. We'll be posting a lot more. I'll probably switch him over to Noah's blog (link on left) so that they can share that blog together.

PROUD BIG BROTHER!

Friday, May 11, he comes..........

Well, today is our last full day as a family of 3. What a strange feeling. And yet, we're going about our normal business....packing lunches, doing laundry, coloring, going to school, going to work, etc. I guess what is there else to do? Baby Spicer will come tomorrow at 3pm by c-section. We are so excited. All the family (my side) will be arriving tomorrow. God really arranged this all perfectly because it was looking grimmer and grimmer that little to no family would be here for the big event.
The funny thing that I'm realizing is how incredibly wonderful it is to have a planned birth. Sure, you can tell yourself and others that it's becoming more and more "consumer" oriented and people just can't be patient and deal with spontaneity with regard to labor. However, having done the "old fashioned" thing the first time, I am now relishing the pure beauty of knowing when this little guy is coming. I feel so much more emotionally ready, how strange. We are able to tell Noah that his brother is coming tomorrow. He is so excited.........I can't wait to see his face when he sees him. We are able to arrange proper childcare, and just allow ourselves all the necessary things in order to enjoy our time in the hospital. I'm even bringing 3 magazines with me! This seems silly to me, but I think I'll have several hours of being alone and why not catch up on my reading? :)
So pray for us........as we head into this new phase of life. Pray for safety, health, NO REFLUX, decent sleep, and smooth adjustment. We treasure your prayers so much. We can't wait to share with you the name, size, and all the little details of tomorrow. Until then...............

37 weeks






Hey all,

Well, yesterday was a somewhat uneventful Dr. appt. I was annoyed because we had to wait almost 45 minutes past our appt to get in. Noah and Brian were with me and while Noah was acting fine, I knew he was sooooo ready for a nap. So needless to say, I was less than cordial with the sono technician and Dr. I know, shame on me. I'm sure anxiousness played a part in this.


Anyway, the baby looks good. He's measuring about 7'9 right now. Everyone (including me) felt like that was an extremely accurate estimate. Dr. Walters won't schedule anything till 38.5 weeks so May 14th would be the earliest I could have a c-section. Obviously I could go into labor on my own any ole day now which would be fine with me. So we wait...............

Oh she did "check" me and I'm at a 1 and cervix is soft (sorry for detail). So things look good, but all we can do is wait. My next appt is Monday so we can see if anything has changed by then, but that is only 5 days away so............


God knows best because I have a load of stuff to do at work and the baby coming anytime before end of next week would not be good from a work-stand point. But I feel selfish most of the time and just want him here. So pray for me! I know the Lord's timing is perfect so I shouldn't be consumed, but all you pregnant ladies know that once you get it in your head that you are going to have a baby early, it is VERY hard to come out of it.


I've posted some pictures of the baby's nursery for your viewing pleasure. Hope to have some more details to post soon! Thank you for all of your concern and prayers. We appreciate it!
