Cooper has a Birthday!
This week I had my 38 week appointment. They did an ultrasound to make sure he was head down and to see how big he was. As soon as she put the probe on my belly, the first words out of her mouth were, "His head is up here." Not what I wanted to hear...he was still breech. I was hoping and praying he would turn, but I had a feeling he hadn't. Every time he kicked me it was down low. I tried to tell myself it was punches and not kicks! HA! Next she started talking about how big he was. I about fell out when she told me they guesstimate he's weighing 8# 14oz!! ALREADY!! YIKES! So needless to say with him being breech and a little monster, they thought a c-section was best. I did not want a c-section at all, but when I found out I was having one, I took it better than I thought I would. I just want him here safe and that's how it has to be done, so I'm trying to have a good attitude about it. One good thing about a scheduled c-section is you know the day you are having your baby so you can plan alot of better. And, with everything going on with us right now with trying to move, that is nice. So mister Cooper will be here on June 16th at 5 p.m. So excited!
We sold our house!! YAY! Here is Eric taking down the sign after only a little over a week. Such a blessing and a big load lifted off of us. I still can't believe we sold it that quick especially doing it "For Sale by Owner". It helped that some of our best friends are all loan officers at different banks in town, so they did good putting the word out for us. Only thing is I have no idea when we are going to pack! We have to be out July 1st, so the next 3 weeks are going to be crazy to say the least. Eric said one day we'll look back and laugh and wonder how we did all this at one time. I hope he's right :)

We're Going Home!
This picture is so bittersweet for us. For the past 3 years, we have had a great life in Magnolia. We made so many wonderful friends and we recently joined a great church. Things were good. But, we always knew someday we wanted to get back to Arkadelphia, to our family, we just didn't know that opportunity would come right now. As of yesterday, Eric accepted a loan officer position at Summit Bank in Arkadelphia, so we are going home! And it's all happening so fast! They wanted him to start work on June 20th. Well, my due date is June 22nd, so that would be cutting it pretty close! Thankfully they are going to let him wait until a week after the baby is born before he has to start. But that still means we are going to be having a baby and moving all around the same time. Can you say STRESSFUL! But our family is wonderful and we have lots of help so I know it will all work out, its just alot to take in. Hopefully our house will sell soon, that would be a big load lifted off of us! Overall though, we are really excited to get home and we have made lots of grandparents VERY happy! :) Even though it will be sad to leave our friends in Magnolia, I know those friendships are going to last no matter where we live. So here's to the next chapter in our lives! :)

Our Maternity Pictures
In April we had maternity pictures made by Jessica Worley with Sweet Little Things Photography. She is wonderful! I was so happy with the pictures. I loved them so much I couldn't decide which ones to buy so I purchased the CD so I would have them all :) She is also doing Cooper's newborn pictures when he arrives. I can't wait!
I wanted to post them all, but here is the majority of them.
