Heavenly Days

As we eagerly wait for the arrival of our little guy we celebrate with our country in the happy occasion of the re-election of Barack Obama!

We are hoping that Rowan was just waiting for this election to be over so he could make his grand entrance and take office as the newest member of the Novoa cabinet. I'm just about 39.5 weeks now and anxious to get this labor going.

We've been documenting this pregnancy similarly to how we followed Jennifer's growing belly when Oliver was inside her. We've been taking baby bump photos ever since I was 11 weeks pregnant. It's quite amazing to look back and see how my body has transformed. I have truly enjoyed this pregnancy even with all the uncomfortable moments but I am excited to get my body back and to have this little tenant move out.

Among all the pregnancy/new baby excitement we also had a very fun Halloween this year. Oliver dressed up as Darth Vader or as he likes to call him Dark Vader. He was such a good trick-or-treator...saying thank you to all the people that gave him candy. He made out like a bandit this year along with his buddy Carey (a.k.a. Spider man).

We also survived Hurricane Sandy without any damage and boy do we feel lucky. It was an epic storm to hit the east coast and one that many will not forget for a long time, if ever. 

So, as we wait, and wait, and wait some more for Rowan to come out we continue to enjoy our lives together and to relish in the fact that our lives are filled with love and hope! See you soon Rowan!!!
