So Excited!

Well, Kyle and I have a long 4 day weekend and then it's back to work on Monday. We can't wait until Monday because we finally get to hear our precious baby's heartbeat. I know that in that instant, everything is going to become even more real! I wish I had more patience than I do right now. But I am really trying to just enjoy each day of this pregnancy and not wish for the time to go by so fast. My Mammaw Gerl told me one time to stop wishing my life away. It didn't make since to me when I was younger, but now it definitely does. So, that's what I'm going to try to do! :)
Since our last post, Kyle and I have purchased a car. We felt that the Camry was on its way to dying so instead of fixing its many problems, we decided to get a more reliable car. We got a great deal on a Honda Civic and it's the perfect size for my short self! Even better, we most likely will be able to pay it off before our baby gets here. Yay! So we can check dependable car off our list of things to do before October.
Well, a new post will come on Monday to give a full report of our doctors visit!

Now Introducing Ava Layne Brooks

Kind of fuzzy, but a great memory! It's a Girl!!! One of the only pictures of the cards I made! Yesterday was a pretty big day for Kyle and I. We had our first ultrasound and found out that we are having a precious baby girl! We were so shocked when the ultrasound tech. said it was a girl because everyone had convinced us it was going to be a boy. We were shocked but so very excited. This day was extremely emotional for me. As soon as I left school I was sobbing with joy. I just could not believe that in a few short minutes I was going to see our baby! I have honestly never been so overjoyed in all my life. The ultrasound was so fun. I laughed and cried the whole way through it. She was bouncing all over the place. We were really hoping we would get a good view of whether or not the baby was a boy or a girl an...

Showers, Doctor's Appointments, Tears, and Updates

We have been so busy lately we feel like we never stop going. Let me take a moment to update you with what's going on at the Brooks home. First of all, we have had two wonderful showers in the past couple of weeks. One was hosted by my dear friend Jenny, at church, and the other was hosted by Kyle's former job...the doctor's office. We have started a big collection of things we actually need. We are slowly starting to feel like we are actually ready for the big day and the day we bring Ava home from the hospital. One of my biggest fears was that I would go into early labor and not be able to leave the hospital because we wouldn't have a car seat. Well, that has been resolved because this week we got it along with our stroller. We love it! We put it together immediately and started strolling around with it. We also installed the car seat base in our car and feel pretty good about things now. Our friends and family have truly been blessings during this time by helping to ...
