"Are you ready to come out yet?"

This is Scott's favorite saying these days!! He has been asking Gus this daily, but so far...we've gotten no answer! The nursery is almost ready....it's painted, organized and toys are ready to be cuddled! We're just missing a crib-but it's due to make landfall in the U.S. sometime
THIS WEEK!
As we get more and more excited, I am getting more uncomfortable, which I've been told is a good thing. I think that Gus must be getting uncomfortable too! He's been doing a ton of stretching and pushing and general fidgeting lately. So now we are just getting used to waiting and wondering when he will arrive. We had our last pregnancy class last night so technically we should be prepared, but I'm still not sure:)
8 months!! Sometimes, we still can't believe this is actually happening to us!

This morning, I enjoyed an hour long prenatal massage which was one of my shower gifts from a teacher at school. It was lovely!! I think I've been more pampered in the last 2-3 months than any other time of my life!

We had two more showers this past weekend. It's unbelievable how blessed we have been! We had one with a bunch of neighborhood folks on Friday night and another at church on Sunday. It was especially great to get to know some of our neighbors a little better and for a lot of them to get to meet each other for the first time. We even got some babysitting offers in advance!!

The beautiful cake from our neighborhood shower!

Guess that's all the latest news from the Nolls. Gus says hello (if hiccups count!).

We remember how you feel!!! Gus will come at just the right time:) Be sure to get lots of rest and spend some good alone time together and enjoy the kicks and hiccups in utero...and get lots of rest:)
We're praying and anticipating that happy phone call sometime within the next couple of weeks!!
