As for us, there is not much new. We have been working and just walking together when we can, and getting the last little things done. Hopefully I will be able to post pictures soon of his room! :)

Doctor's Appointment :)
I went to the doctor's yesterday for a check, everything is looking good. :) I am 1 1/2- 2 cm dilated, 75% effaced (thinned out). She says she will be surprised if I make it to my next appointment next Wednesday. She did strip my membranes. She says this works 50% of the time in putting woman into labor. All it does help the contractions start, sometimes in kicks starts labor, and others just get some contractions and that is it. I have been feeling "crampy" since she did this yesterday, but nothing too strong to send me to the hospital. So, hopefully this will kick start everything and he will be here soon! :)

Baby Update, Rob's Award, 2 weeks apart, Family Day, 4th of July and a birthday!
Baby Update
Well I went to the doctor's on Wednesday, and got checked and talked with the doctor. I am 1 cm dilated, and she didn't say how much effaced (thinned out) I was, but I was told at my 36 week check, that I had already started to thin out. If I make it to my next appointment this coming Wednesday, I will ask how effaced I am. I also asked, just in case I somehow magically make it past my due date, how far she would let me go past my due date. She said 1 week, which is August 3rd, but she doesn't work labor and delivery that day, so August 6th, if I do not have this baby by than, I will be induced. As of right now, for what we discussed. If anything changes, we'll updated everyone. We have 1 week left until our due date! :) We are getting so close and so very excited to meet this little guy!
2 Weeks Apart, An Award, and Family Day
Rob had to leave for his 2 week Annual Training (AT) for the Reserves, and now is back. They went to Virginia and had a good time. I would hope they had a good time, because one weekend, they got to go to Busch Gardens, free of charge. (Lucky, must of been so rough) Haha. He did say it was really hot and humid there, compared to what we had here at home. But overall, he said he had a good time.
Rob also received and award recently for doing his duties at his Annual Training last year. He received The Army Achievement Medal.
Rob's unit just had a Family Day, to get all the families together and do a cookout, after a 2 hour briefing... I have to say it was somewhat enjoyable to be outside at the park for a good portion of the afternoon. But, I did end up getting sun burnt. No, I did not put on any sunscreen, Yes, I learned my lesson. Haha. But it was the good first burn of the summer for me, and it all pretty much has tanned now. I will be putting sunscreen on next time, and if I do get some sun hopefully it won't hurt as much and just tan than. :)
4th of July
4th of July started off good for us, had some friends and family over for a cookout, hang out, and than to finish things off, fireworks at the park. Well, we all went down to the park, waited, waited some more, and than waited some more. We did see some test fireworks go off, like 3 sets, but that was it. Come to find out, the was a malfunction with the electronic board, so no fireworks. :( The city and the company couldn't agree on another time to reschedule the fireworks, so they were called off for the year. But I did end up seeing fireworks with some of Rob's family at the Fairview Summer Fest. Than the next night, we met up with some friends and watched fireworks at the Brook Park Community Fest. So it turned out okay. :)
A Birthday!
No, our little man has not arrived yet! :) But I did celebrate my 21st birthday. :) I took the day off of work to relax and take care of some things, like renewing registration for my car, getting my new license, and getting my haircut. It is the same style it has been, just shorter, because it needed to get trimmed up. When Rob came home from work, he took me out to Olive Garden for dinner. :) Than I went and bought my 1st bottle of alcohol. NO, I did not consume any of it. It was my 21st, I wanted to buy something alcoholic, even though I couldn't drink it. So, I had Rob pick out a bottle of what he wanted, and I paid for it. I didn't get carded. :( Yes, I was hoping to get carded on my 21st birthday, and I didn't. Oh well.
That is it for now. I will update soon with Baby Shower pictures and Baby Room pictures. :) The room is almost done, we are just working on the the little things in his room. For example, getting everything organized and in it's place. :)

Rob the morning he left for AT, with his freshly, shaved head. Doesn't he look so happy to get his picture taken? :)
This is what I woke up to the morning he was coming home, so who ever helped him do this, Thank You so much! Made the start of my day so much better! :)
Rob also received and award recently for doing his duties at his Annual Training last year. He received The Army Achievement Medal.
Congrats to Rob! :)

Baby Shower Galore, An Award, 2 weeks apart, 4th of July
Sorry for the delay in posting, things have been kind of crazy trying to get ready for our little man to get here! This will be a quick update, and I will do a longer one on Wednesday, or Thursday.
Preview of some next posts:
We have had 2 baby showers, one in April up in Buffalo, and one last month here in Ohio. I will go into details in later posts, with pictures. The Buffalo shower was for my side of the family and family friends up there. It was put together by my Step-mom Danielle, with wonderful help from her cousin Cheryl, my mom, and Rob's family. It was wonderful to see everyone, we even had a surprise guest from Vegas! The shower here in Ohio was for Rob's family and our friends. It was put together by Rob's family and my mom. It was a "Roar"-ing good time! Pictures and details will follow in a later post. I also made a surprise day trip to Buffalo to stop by my sister Katie's baby shower.
Rob had to go away for 2 weeks for his AT (annual training) for the Army. He also received an award before leaving, for his job at AT last year! :)
4th of July was a good time with friends and family, until the fireworks...
Updates with a belly picture will be posted Wednesday or Thursday, after my doctor's appointment on Wednesday. 10 days until our due date! We are getting very excited and anxious!
