Bath Time

Coby experienced his first at home bath on Saturday. Holly came over to help us with the newborn bathing process. We quickly discovered that it is not his favorite thing to expose his little body. After much screaming it was time to wash the hair. We were surprised to find that he actually loved this part. It seemed very calming and enjoyable for him. Hopefully he will learn to like the rest of his bath!

He's here!!!

Coby Ty Wigginton arrived on August 18th, right on his due date. Maybe this means he will be a very punctual person :-) He was 8 pounds 10 ounces and 20 inches long. We are so glad that he is here, even if he doesn't always love to sleep when he should. Thanks for joining our family, Coby!!!

Torpedo Belly

I had someone from work tell me that I don't look pregnant from behind, but when I turn around there's a torpedo. I guess I will be known as torpedo belly. I think I can live with that. We are at 38 1/2 weeks and no baby yet. It is getting extremely hard to wait, especially when you really have no idea when this kid is going to show up. My doctor thought that I probably wouldn't last the week, but here I am with no sign of going soon. I am still crossing my fingers that he'll show up before my next appointment on Tuesday. I can't imagine going over my due date. If I do, I will be going to work on the first day. I don't know how I would deal with 22 new first graders. The first few days are crazy!!! They have to learn so much about being big kids during those first few days and it takes a lot of energy on the teacher's part. I seem to run out of energy really fast lately so I don't think I could maintain my teacher spirit all day long. I will keep my fingers crossed and keep praying everyday!

New Baby Name???

I was talking to Holly the other day, and found out that Juliette has renamed our baby. She had a hard time saying Coby, so she called him Toby. That name didn't last very long. She decided that his new name should be Boo Boo. She also calls him Boo as a nickname. I guess Coby is out and we will have a Baby Boo Boo instead. Thanks Juliette!!!

Getting Close!!!

I can hardly believe that I am only 3 weeks away from my due date! We are both really excited to welcome our first child into our family. Chris spent time getting the baby furniture put together, and he definitely enjoyed that :-) All of the baby clothes have been washed and put away. My sub plans and files are all updated and ready for the sub. I work until Thursday and then I am finished for the summer. Coby is more than welcome to join our family after that day. We would love it if our little guy would show up slightly early. Chris' brother is going into the MTC on August 19th and I am due on August 18th. We are hoping that Coby gets to meet his uncle before he leaves on his mission. We will keep praying that he comes soon, and we can't wait to meet him!!!
