News to know for November

So as i said before our lap top crashed so that is why there haven't been any updates recently. As you all know if you have read our blog that we are expecting a little girl in January named Rylee Berry Rivera. My mom has been visiting us for about 2 weeks now and has helped me paint 5 rooms, including the nursery, and she is helping me make curtains. It's so much cheaper to make them now days! I seriously doubt if i would have gotten it done if she hadn't come help, since Ryan is focusing on school as he should be. But i feel very good about what we have gotten done and it's starting feel more like home than it did before, because i can get our pictures and such up on our walls now that they are painted. My dad also came down a few days ago and updated our wiring in our house with Ryan's help. When we moved in the wiring was pretty scary in some places and a lot of codes were not met. Creepy considering we did have an inspection before we got the house, but nothing surprises me anymore from some of the dumb things we've been finding. Let's just say the previous owners were not handymen of any sort.

As for Rylee like i said before we got her room painted and finally got her decorations on the wall, and my dad brought down the rocker, my parents used for myself and Jesse when we were little, and that is also in our nursery. Jesse got the bassinet, and for those of you who don't know Jesse and Mallory are expecting March 10th exactly two months after my due date and they are expecting a little boy named Logan James Malone. But back to Rylee i will post pictures of her first room here in a bit when i can get some pictures put onto Jesse's computer that he's lending us until Ryan's done with this semester of school.

My doctors appointments have been going pretty well. She is measuring about two weeks bigger than average for how far along i am. She has been measuring big since the 28th week so the doctor is keeping a close eye on how much bigger she is measuring so that if it's a large amount we can do an ultrasound to make sure everything is okay and she's just a chunk and nothing else is wrong hopefully! I'm very nearly done and i really can't wait to meet her. I have hit the turning point i think, when everything goes from being uncomfortable sometimes to uncomfortable all the time. But i try not to complain about it to much, because there isn't a whole lot we can do until she is born so i just do the best i can at being as postive as i can be.

Here on tuesday we leaving to go to Holbrook Arizona to spend Thanksgiving with Ryan's Aunt Lisa. The last few years Ryan has had to work on Thanksgiving so my family came to us to this year since he doesn't work now we are taking the 12 hour drive to Lisa's to spend time with her for Thanksgiving. This doesn't even come close to how many trips Lisa makes to come to pretty much as many family events other than Thanksgiving and Christmas as she and her family can. I'll try to get some pictures up of belly's, and nursery ASAP when we get back.
