Happy New Year everyone!! And at this point. I think I can give a massive Happy Birthday to all the D13 babies. I hope your holidays were wonderful and everyone is doing well.
I'm long overdue for a check in over here. Please forgive me, as I don't bump as much these days.
So to quickly bring you up to speed... Baby Dolce is doing great! This guy is growing and just as active as can be. No major health alerts or things of note to stress over. It's just a waiting game at this point. I actually can't believe I can say he is coming NEXT MONTH... He is predicted to be a little big based on measurements, and my. OB said that they would date him closer to late January than Feb 7th. I was given Feb 1st as a new EDD, which is funny since we know for sure exactly when he was conceived. So with that being said, he really could be here any day now.
To AW a bit. My family and friends threw up the fanciest baby shower ever. It really was a dream event... Damn near a wedding reception with an Ice sculpture, Photobooth, DJ/photographer, Butlered Apps ect... It was quite lovely and Hubby and I were beyond blown away. Little baby Brooks has been waiting for and prayed for, for such a long time.
I was able to get over a lot of anxiety and start working on the nursery last month, furniture has been ordered so we are just waiting to go ahead and put the final touches in the room. It will be a little whole before we need it full time so I'm not stressing. I have our deluxe PnP set up on DH side of our room, with a RnP on my side, so sleeping arrangements for the first few weeks is covered. Car seat and bases were installed on NYD, and I'm working on the hospital bags now.
I can't wait to have some legit pictures to show you, but here are a few recent ones... (Maternity shoot, Baby Shower, and Dolce at 32/33wks)
And as always...thanks for being so super supportive. I've gone and fallen in love with internet strangers. Best wishes to everyone and a blessed New Year.

@Yez9 oh yeah, those pouty lips are straight from my FIL. And those cheeks, he makes me want to just pinch them. As for his name, think Exxon mobile, but with an S instead of the X... Eh-sahn. My mother pronounces it more like Ah-San, but I'm cool with that too.

Honestly... DH name starts with E, (and we all call him "E") so as a joke I said what about Esson, as in E's son. And what do you know, he thought it was so cute and funny. But as to not have a totally made up spechul name, I started researching. Ehsan is a legit name, and Arabic for Perfection/Excellence. With our back story, finally having this child is like perfection to us. The name is so fitting. And William = strong willed warrior... Perfect Strong Willed Warrior. :x
