Erik, Natalie, and Baby Tatum Rose Mullins: Getting Too Exciting!

Cheers to week #38! Getting so close and it is getting way too exciting! As you can image, the questions and thoughts I have about even the smallest details of giving birth and finally holding our new baby are rushing through my head at all times and I can't wait for the day to get here! Thank you for sharing this experience with me!

For those of you who couldn't believe I am still working...well...great news...tomorrow, Friday, May 16th, is officially my last day at International Quarters! Time for some rest and relaxation before the little one gets here! My ankles are swollen and back is sore so I felt like it was finally time to start resting my huge feet, catch up on things around the house, and enjoying this gorgeous Summer weather (today it is 101 degrees outside...wow!)

I am going to the doctor every wednesday and things are going perfectly! I am dilated, effaced, and the baby is getting ready for arrival! Our bag is packed, baby gear organized in the nursery, and car seats in both cars! Ready!

I had another beautiful baby shower given at Julie and John Shirley's amazing home in Sonoma! It was perfect and a great time was had by all! Thank you to all of you who were there to celebrate and thank you for all the fabulous gifts! We are going to have one very stylish baby! Especially in the 2008 Inglesina Pram that mom and dad gave us and Baby Trend stroller/car seat system as a gift from Erik's parents! Now I will have to get ready for alot of walking and running once we are settled into the new baby lifestyle!

Below are some photos from the shower and the newest picture of the proud big cousin to be, Blake who is getting so big and super handsome! He is ready to be a big cousin even if he doesn't quite understand why his Aunt Nat's belly is so huge! Can't wait to have both the little ones cruising around and entertaining the family!
