So we are now about 6 days past our due date and I am trying to stay relaxed.  Frank and I are both getting very anxious to meet our daughter.  I stopped working this week, which is very nice to relax and take things easy but I also am ready to have my baby in my arms:)  We don't plan on going past 42 weeks, so that means induction next week.  Frank and I are positive and hopeful that she will decide to come on her own in the next few days.  We are trying all the tricks that we know of to help initiate labor but she seems to be pretty comfortable where she is.  All your thoughts and prayers are appreciated and we will keep you posted.  

Due date in just 4 DAYS!!!  Frank and I are amazed that it is just a matter of days before our due date.  Our daughter could be arriving any day now.  That being said, my Mom did have me over 2 weeks late and my sister had my nephew 2 weeks late, so we will see.  I hope I break family tradition and have her before 42 weeks:)  I am doing well.  Definitely more uncomfortable and very slow to move, like a turtle really.  I am still working, which I know some people think is crazy but I don't know what I would do to keep myself busy right now if I was at home.  I would just sit around obsessing about her arrival.  I think we are as prepared and ready as we can be but I am sure we have forgotten something.  Sorry I have to say this.  I know lots of you plan on visiting when Baby Bustos arrives.  Frank and I request that if you are even slightly under the weather that you wait until you are feeling 100% before visiting.  We just can't chance it with flu season being out of control and having a newborn.  Thanks for your consideration.  Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers.  We will keep you updated as things progress.

Well, we are now at 36 weeks! I feel like time has flown by but it is definitely slowing down these last few weeks.  I really have loved being pregnant but I am also anxious to meet our daughter.  My energy has definitely dropped off and little tasks seem to be too exhausting.  Frank is being a great help and has taken over most 0f the tasks around the house.  We took some pictures at the house with our tripod, just couldn't justify spending the money on professional.  They came out pretty good for amateurs playing photographers and trying to pose:)  Wish us blessings for our last 4 weeks, that is if she is on time!

Here are the latest and greatest of the nursery.  Frank and I are so happy with how the room turned out.  We sit in the room just about every night and talk about how excited we are to have a baby on the way.  I say the nursery is pretty much complete but I always find something cute to add:)

A couple of weeks ago we had a wonderful family baby shower.  Lots of family and friends came to celebrate the nearing arrival of our daughter.  It meant so much to Frank and I and we felt very loved.  My adorable nephew and sweet sister made the trip down from Georgia and I could not get enough hugs and kisses from my nephew.  We packed up a truck full of baby items and our house is now officially babyfied.  We just need our sweet baby here!

Baby Bustos Shower

Yesterday we had a great time at our baby shower.  Baby Bustos is already so loved and spoiled.  We are so blessed to have such loving and giving people in our lives.  I can't wait to dress her up in all the adorable clothes she received!

Port Aransas Beach Trip

The Bustos family had a great time at Port Aransas with there friends.  Being pregnant, I felt very catered to and was able to put my feet up, read a book, and enjoy the beautiful ocean.  My friends kept saying I was a trooper for hanging out on the beach and in the sun.  That was no problem.  I think I was a trooper for donning the bathing suit and taking pics at 7 1/2 months pregnant standing next to all these beautifully, fit women! It was a great time and can't wait for next year when baby Bustos can play in the sand looking adorable in her bikini:)
