A birthday and a doctors appt.

I'm now 32 weeks. Yay!
Yesterday was my 27th birthday. I can't believe I'm 27 years old. It was such a nice day though. I had a great time at work with all the work friends and the sweet gifts they gave me. One of the ladies I work with gave me a whole handful of adorable kids books for me to put on the book shelf in Coopers room. I LOVED this gift. When I got off of work I met my best friends for a girls pedicure! I haven't had one all summer and I wanted one bad. It was great. Except for the fact that I think I might have bruises up and down my right leg due to the near beating my lady did when she was "massaging" my legs. Hah, It actually hurt. But the rest of it felt great and my toes look just beautiful.
I went home with the girls all following me to meet all of our hubbies at my house so we could go to dinner. To my surprise my younger brother had driven two hours to surprise me on my birthday. He's in college at OU and is just finished with summer school and lives in Norman with the rest of my family. He works every weekend so when we go there we see him but its always so short and I feel like I never spend time with him. So this was a GREAT surprise. We all went to dinner and enjoyed the night. I got a yellow purse from my friend Shannon, I love it! Its so sunny and fun. I love birthdays, but I was exhausted by the end of the night and ready for some much needed rest.

Today we went to see the doctor. This visit was important because we have been sitting on pins and needles for weeks now waiting to see if he grows and if its enough for them to feel confident he can stay in there and grow for quite some more time. The doctor we saw was so sweet and explained things great. (Our doc is out of the office this week). He measured the baby's head, femer, and waist 2 times to get an accurate measurement, he felt like the baby had consistently grown (although he's still small and his waist is still small) he felt he had grown consistently over the past two weeks and felt good about the progress. He said to come back next week and we will measure again and keep hoping that he keeps on growing slowly but surely. If his growth declines at all thats when they will start to worry but so far we have made it this far and will definitely make it to 33 or 34 weeks. I have a great feeling that he might suprise us all and stay in there growing slowly but surely until the very end. That would be SOOO GREAT!.
The doctor said the heartbeat was great, the amniotic fluid looked wonderful and my placenta looked good. So everything else seems good. We can do this Coop. God is watching out for us.

Thank you to everyone for all the prayers. We appreciate them always.
