Animal Cruelty

We decided to test out the carseat tonight...


And it works!! :) Poor kitty...

38 weeks!! Only 2 more to go (HOPEFULLY!!)

Today marks the beginning of our 38th week. It's amazing how fast 8 months went by, and how slow time seems to be going now that we are so close. We are just so excited to meet this little girl! Today Jerod and I got up early and went to Maggie's Bun's for breakfast. We are reading the labor and delivery parts of our books and preparing for labor. I'm sure that we won't remember a thing that we read when it comes time, but it is still fun to prepare together. We decided to drive out to the beach and take our current daughter (Brandy) for a day trip. The weather was supposed to be super nice at the beach, and we brought along a blanket to lay on the beach and continue our reading. The weather was a little bit overcast, but was still pretty warm. Brandy swam and played chase with her ball. She had a blast! We ran into Sam, Candy & Makenna Marshall and got to watch 2-yr old Makenna play in the water. It made us even more excited to have our little one here!

After laying on the beach for awhile we went up to have some lunch and visit Flamingo Jim's (we must visit Flamingo Jim's every time we are in Rockaway!). We took a bumpy back road on the way home to see if we could induce labor, but she seems pretty happy in there, so we'll just have to wait!

Now we're home in Forest Grove and getting ready to watch the Beavers play UNLV. What a great day!!

All our bags are packed!!

Still 3 more weeks 'til our due date, but our bags are packed and we're ready to go...just in case!!

I'm trying out this post using my blackberry because the hospital we are going to doesn't have wireless. So I'm hoping to be able to send updates (or rather have a friend send them) from my phone. Hopefully this works!!

Marie and I are soon to be mommies. She is due August 26th, and I'm due September 26th!

More 3D pics

Here are some more 3D pictures of our little angel! She appears to be a thumb sucker, or at least she likes having her hands up around her face, especially her nose and mouth. It was really neat to see her opening her eyes and mouth.

Only 2 more months to go! It's hard to believe that she will be here so soon. Jerod and I are starting to work on the nursery now. We are painting and adding a chair rail to the room. I'll post some pictures soon!

This is a good picture of her eyes/nose, but she has her mouth covered up:

Here is another one of her hand in front of her face...look at those long fingers!!

In this one she is yawning! You can see her mouth is wide open:

Here is one of her where she doesn't have her hand or anything in front of her mouth. She looks so peaceful and content!

Baby V in 3D!

Here is Baby Girl Verboort! This is a profile picture at 28 weeks:

These are the 3D pictures. She had her feet and hands in front of her face a lot, and really didn't want to give us a good look at her face!

Here's another one with her hand in front of her face, but you can see her eyes and nose:

In this one she gave us a smile!

Another one of her little face...she's already beautiful! :)
