Baby Shower





Thanks to everyone who came to the baby shower. We received a lot of great gifts. I already put together the swing but I think I'll wait for the baby to try it out since I've put on a few paternity pounds. Anyways, here are a few pictures that Aunt Tracey and Kimmie sent me

Mommy's last spring break




I thought I'd post a few images of Shelly's Last Spring Break by herself. Apparently, she thinks she is still in 3rd grade. It looks like she had a good time while Daddy stayed home and worked. I just wanted to put that on the record :)

Baby's new closet


Here is a picture of your new closet. Daddy was very proud of himself that he was able to put this up (with the help of Papa Steve) of course. I'm sure we will be getting a couple more of these to put in the master closet as well.
Don't worry Mommy, I'll finish up the doors this week too. I did fix the baby's room one so I know how to do it.
Now, we can put all of the baby stuff away and organized after the shower this weekend. Also, the decorating can begin without any worry of anything else.

Batman


Daddy dropped Mommy and you (baby Woodster) off at the airport early this morning. You are going to Florida for Spring Break. Apparently, mommy thinks she is still in college and has to go somewhere on spring break every year. Luckily, you get to go with her while Daddy goes to work and attempts to finish off one of the many honey-do-lists.
Mommy and Daddy had a little excitement late last night before/during bedtime. While I was laying on the couch watching sportscenter before going up to bed and Mommy laying up in bed sleeping, a bat flew into the house through the fireplace. At first I didn't believe it but sure enough, it was a bat. Of course, the first place it flies is into the bedroom where Mommy was sleeping. I ran up there and tried to lead it out the window or door towards the front door but the dumb thing kept circling around running into the walls. Mommy thought it was a bird so I let her believe that until it was gone because I did not want to scare her anymore. After about 15-20mins, it finally flew into the bathroom where I trapped it with a plunger. It was quite exciting and I could have sworn I was on candid camera. I think it was a baby bat that was lost or flew down or in the wrong hole. I read this morning that a bat can fly through a hole the size of your thumb. I was able to then put a sheet over it, throw it in a small trash can, and release it outside. Hopefully, he didn't bring any friends. We do not need bats flying around the house especially with baby Woody coming soon.
Anyways, that was our excitement before Mommy's big trip. Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep but Mommy has a good story to tell everyone.

Happy St. Pat's Day

Happy St. Pat's Day baby Woody!. Well, it was 1yr ago today that Mommy and Daddy became engaged. I think Mommy was a little disappointed this morning that she didn't get another diamond rock like last year.
Mommy also had another check-up with the baby doc today too. I think everything went ok so far. You are now 28 weeks old, so definitely in the 3rd trimester (on the downhill). I try to remind Mommy that it isn't long.
Tomorrow we have our 3rd baby class and we will tour the hospital to scope things out before you make your appearance. This will be neat to see.
I hope to make Mommy dinner tonight b/c she has a late meeting at work for the insurance committee. Ladue makes her join a certain amount of committees as a teacher. I think she picked this one to make sure you have the best health care possible.

happy 4th birthday cousin Mario


Monday we went to Happy Joe's pizza to celebrate your cousin Mario's 4th birthday. He loved the games, pizza, ice cream, and birthday siren that goes off. Mario wanted to take a picture with baby Woody too so you can see it above.
Daddy hasn't been feeling well all week. I think he has the cold that your mommy and everyone else in St. Louis has had the past month. I don't think I have it quite as bad as mommy but I can also take medicine to make me feel better.
We have our first childbirth class tonight in an hour. I'm going to tough it out and go with mommy. Hopefully, I don't pass my germs on to all the other moms-to-be.
