Too Early for Contractions Sullivan

I went to the doctor today because I had been feeling a lot of pressure and just wanted to make sure everything was alright with Sullivan and I.  The good news is the ultrasound was great, my cervix looked good, and other tests they did came back negative which is what they wanted them to be.  The not so great news is I was having contractions.  They hooked me up to the monitor machine and found that out.  I just thought they were little Braxton Hicks contractions.  My dr. sent me to the hospital for fluids = not much fun.  Again, good news nothing else changed so my dr. let me go home.  My dr. doesn't seem super concerned as long as they don't get worse and she doesn't see me having to be on any kind of bed rest.  However, I am just really praying that the contractions will stop and go away.  I will be 30 weeks Friday so it's too early for Sullivan Knight to make his appearance.  I am trying not to worry and just want to give it to God because I know he is in control.  Please just say a prayer for us!

House Full of Boys

Jon and I just found out our sweet new little baby is a boy!  I am so excited!  For some reason, I was convinced I was having a girl (completely different pregnancy, symptoms, etc.)  BOY, was I wrong!  We couldn't be happier and I think it will be perfect for Garrison and his little brother.  I am excited they will have each other and I am sure they will be best buddies.  I completely love having Garrison so, I can't wait until there are two little men in the house.

1st Birthday Party

Garrison had a great time at his party.  We have a small house and had a lot of family and friends but I think everyone had a good time.  I spent a lot of time making the decor and didn't really take too many pictures of it :( but what matters is Garrison had a fun party.  He finally figured out everyone was there to see him when he started on his smash cake.  One of my other favorite things was the video that Jon made for the party.  It was called "Garrison's Firsts" and it was a short video of various firsts he had throughout the year.  The song that played was "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" I cried everytime I watched it.  We went with a sock monkey theme with red and light blue as the colors. Here are some pictures.

Waiting the party - his sweet shirt has a 1 with sock monkey fabric and his name.

Garrison loved this card.  On the mantle I had a picture of him at each month.
