Our Anniversary

Asher is now 3 weeks old and Ty and I are in the throws of sleep deprivation. It has been a great three weeks though. Ty has been busy making some videos which are posted on You Tube... you can follow the link here on on the left to check for new videos at any time. http://www.youtube.com/user/webbta

Today is our 5 year anniversary. We are going out to a nice dinner to celebrate and Ty's parents are watching Asher. Thank goodness for Grandparents!!! Even though our real celebration was our trip to CA in May, it will be so nice to go out on a date. :)

Asher's First Week

OK, we promise we won't post pictures every week......well, we might 'cause he is just so darn cute. We have been home with him for two days now and we are adjusting to our new sleep schedule, or lack thereof.

Anyway, here are the pictures:

Welcome Asher Luke Webb!!!

Well, this is my first official post on our blog and I couldn't be prouder to use it to announce the birth of our perfect little 8 lb. 7 oz. (did I mention perfect) little boy, Asher Luke Webb. Asher was born yesterday, June 5th, 2008 at 1:31 PM and he and Amy are both doing well, although Amy has a new affinity for pain medication that I had not seen before. Can you blame her? She has been truly amazing, though. In fact, I awarded her the "Trooper Award" for yesterday, Asher's birthday. I think she earned it. Today is still up for grabs, though I took an early lead when I got sprayed with Asher's fire hose while changing his diaper. For more on our daily "Trooper Award", ask Amy sometime.

Anyway, visitors are welcome, though we didn't get much sleep last night and so we can't promise you a good time. But we can promise you a perfect little boy by the name of Asher Luke Webb.

Memorial Weekend Shower

Michelle Contich, Emily Webb and Marilyn Webb threw a baby shower for me here in Franklin on Sunday. It was such a special time. The theme was books and I got a lot of great kids books! The best part was getting a chance to see and visit with my friends in the area (most of which I hadn't seen in 2 years). There was also a very special present that everyone pitched in for. Everyone wrote out a prayer for our family and our new little one on the way. The prayers were sewn inside of a beautiful baby blanket. So, now our son on the way can be 'wrapped in prayer'. It was such a special gift. I am very thankful for all of the great friends and support that Ty and I are surrounded by.
A quick baby update. I went to the Dr again today. They did an ultrasound and fluid check. My fluid level is still high (AFL 38). They also took a measurement of the baby. Currently he is measuring at 8 lbs 10 oz. They said that he will continue to grow about 1/2 lb a week (still projecting around a 10 lbs baby). I am currently 37 weeks (will be 38 weeks on Sunday). So, she said that it really could be any day now. She said that if I get contractions this weekend to come into the hospital. She also talked to Ty and I about a possible C-Section due to the high fluid and the baby's size. So, we will see. We are both excited that the day of meeting our little one is coming closer. We will keep you updated!

In Our House

Ty and I are in our new house and in the thick of unpacking boxes. Thankfully both sets of parents are helping out immensely. My mom and dad have been here every day all day putting stuff away, doing laundry, fixing hardware, etc. Ty and I have slept in our new house for 3 nights and really love living here. Trevor (our kitty) is settling in slowly as well.

I am currently 36+ weeks along. On Sunday I will be 37 weeks (considered Term). So, that would be a huge milestone. We are still taking it a week at a time. The doctor talked to us about the possibility of a scheduled c-section, but that is not for sure. We did find out last week that not only do I have extra fluid... but apparently they think that I am also carrying a big baby. They are projecting him to be 9 lbs or 10 lbs if I were to go to 40 weeks! No wonder I feel so huge :)

We will keep you updated on any news! I will also try and post some pictures soon.

I made it!

I officially made it to TN.  My parents drove me on Monday and we got in on Monday night.  Ty is arriving from NC by tomorrow.  He had to stay to make sure all of our stuff got on the moving truck.  We are staying at Ty's parents' house until we get our stuff in our house (scheduled to arrive on Sunday).  I can't wait to have my husband, kitty and stuff all in our house hopefully next week.  

I have been feeling pretty good.  I have my first doctor's apt here on Thursday.

Ty Graduates

We found out today that Ty made Fuqua Scholars for The Duke MBA-Daytime Class of 2008. Fuqua Scholars are those students whose grade point average places them in the top 10% of the graduating class!!!

I am so proud of him and all he has accomplished in school over the past 2 years!

Congratulations Ty


Graduation proceedings for Ty are today through Sunday. His parents, Emily & Adam and my parents are in town to celebrate with him.
