35 Weeks- the count down is on!

Yesterday, we were delighted with another ultrasound! It is truly amazing to see how our little one has grown! She weighs around 5 pounds 3 ounces.

Savannah is also a huge fan of eavesdropping and sucking her thumb/fingers! When we were viewing the ultrasound yesterday, the tech could see her little eyebrows moving and her facial expressions changing as we all were talking! It is hard to make out, but none-the-less, she is my daughter, so, she will have to be "in the know" at all times!! ( Sorry baby girl- its genetics!)

Take a look at the ultrasound! It is three minutes long and makes both Rick and I bored with technology and long to meet our gorgeous baby girl!

Approaching D-DAY

It has been a really long time since my last entry and for that I apologize!
Rick and I have been extremely busy trying to ready our house for the baby!
Our nursery is nearly finished and the rest of the Hage house remodeling project is on its way as well!
After going back and looking at my last post, I realize there has been nearly 20 weeks between then and now... So, here's a quick update!
We have a name:
Savannah Noel Hage
It's hard to describe how Rick and I finally agreed on a name, but for some reason Savannah just took and we both LOVE IT!
Noel is from Ricky's dad's middle name- which was Noel ( like Cole), and I loved that Rick wanted to pay tribute to his dad in our daughter's name!
At 28 weeks, we were able to see our little peanute in a 3D-4D ultrasound. The technology is so amazing! It blew our minds that we created a mini version of ourselves!
She already smiles! ( I am sure she inherits that trait from me :)
She had her thumbs and her toes in her mouth the day of the ultrasound, so, our pictures were a little distorted. I liked that we truly couldn't see all of her features. I felt like we were looking "behind the curtain" a bit too much!


We think she has my nose and lips! In the top picture she looks very Hage/Franken though... So, I am not sure what to expect... Just that she is going to be the most gorgeous baby alive !!
I also stepped in front of the camera again to have some maternity pictures taken. I did them at about 31-32 weeks. I wish that Ricky was in some of them, but they turned out very nice!
Kortni, my gorgeous sister-in-law took them! She did a great job!





Today, marks 35 weeks and two days.
We have just a few more weeks to go and boy are we excited!
