Jackson Leon Crowder


So the last couple of weeks there hasn't been much going on. We are settling in the house still and working on it. Justin's birthday was Monday, the 28th, so Happy Birthday again Justin! We got to go out to eat with his mom and his brother. It's not very often that happens anymore. I remember when I first met Justin the 3 of them used to go out to eat every single night and I was always like that's so cool! hahaha. Anyway, we did finally agree on the baby's name and it will be Jackson Leon Crowder. No more Cletus yay! I wanted the baby to have Justin's initials without being a Jr. and I have always love the name Jackson. Thank you Steel Magnolias! lol. My last Dr.'s appt. was last Tuesday. I actually had 2 and they both went great. One was for the Down Syndrome and they measured the baby's heart and almost every part of his body and they said that everything looked fine so I do not have to go back to that Dr. As of last week Jackson weighed 1 pound and 9 ounces. The nurse couldn't get a measurement for how long he was because he was folded in half. His feet were touching the top of his head. He already looks just like Justin. My second appt. was with my regular Dr. and I had to take my glucose test. It wasn't bad at all and I passed, yay! So, things are going good right now Hallelujah! My next appt. is when I have to get my shot for my blood type being O negative. Another bump in the road but it could be so much worse! That's all for this week I think.

How far along? 25 weeks

Maternity clothes? I definitely need more!

Best moment this week? Going to Outback for Justin's birthday and getting some much needed good steak!! hahaha

Food craving? Nothing in particular but I'm trying to diet a little bit

Baby's gender? Still a boy and looks like his daddy already!

Labor signs? Definitely not!

What I miss: Getting comfortable and being able to have normal dreams!

What I'm looking forward to: Holding my baby :)

Daddy's Thoughts: Stressing about getting everything ready in time for the baby.

Mommy's Thoughts: Stressing too but I just have to remember that it will all be worth it when he gets here.

  1. This is from our cousin, Becca. She's been trying to post this comment but for some unknown reason it wouldn't post. She asked me to make sure that it got to you. And by the way, I love the name and can't wait to meet our little guy!

    We didn't get a chance to meet at the Crowder Family Reunion, but I'm Becca (Nicole's cousin). My daddy (Jerry) was Justin's Uncle, and his middle name was also Leon. It is heartwarming to hear that it's being passed down through the Crowders! I only wish you and your family the very best! Take Care, and enjoy that sweet baby boy in a few months or so!
