Beautiful Big Puffy Lips

I am head down and waiting the 5 wk count down to give you all kisses.
Today I weighed in at 6lbs 1oz and they got to see hair on my head today.


After seeing her at the ultrasound and how active/cute she was made me so excited to meet her.  I'm so ready to hold her in my arms and just eat her up with lots of hugs and kisses.  The boys are even on cloud nine after seeing the photos.  Will sings to her every day and both ask how much longer.

Hospital Run - False alarm

All weekend I was really cramping and contracting.  Kept blowing it off for Braxton Hicks, but then this morning it got a little more rhythmic every 10 minutes, so I decided  I better put a call in to Dr Madden and see what she thought.  Well they sent us to the hospital for observation for a little over an hour.  Baby girl is doing great and my body was just doing training exercises to get ready for the big day.  She is however still breech and I'm now 40% effaced.

I have a ob and ultrasound on Thursday.  I'll let you know how it goes. 

Weird to think the big event is coming.  Very exciting!

On another note...

I saw the cutest thing tonight.  I found Tim watching Father of the Bride and smiling.  He would never take time in past years to watch this movie, so I asked him if he was gearing up for having a daughter. He said yes!  I love him!

Pregnancy Update


This is a shout out to Aunt Shannon and Aunt Felisa having there happy hour on the back porch.  Have one for me and I'll join you all soon.

I'm feeling HUGE and UNCOMFORTABLE!  Love the warm weather but I'm sweating ... a skirt and tank top isn't cool enough!  Last night I told Tim 6 wks and 4 days isn't very far away, but my body feels like it is a long ways off.

I have another bi weekly doctors and ultrasound appointment this coming Thursday.  They are watching my slightly high levels amnotic fluids and her breech position.  Dr Madden feel she still has plenty of time to do a flip.  After this appointment I start my weekly appointments...can you believe it?

She is kicking up a storm listening to her aunts on the speaker phone.

William Gets Glasses...

At the last parent/teacher conference the teachers thought Will should get his eyes checked.  They had noticed him having problems with his alphabet and numbers in small writing, so over spring break we did just that.  Sure enough our little guy needed some glasses.  Today was his first day back to school after spring break with his glasses, so Tim and I are eager to see how things progress now.  Besides taking on and off all day and losing them once, it went pretty good.

32 Weeks & Baby Update



Had another ultrasound today to see how baby girl is growing.  She is weighing 5 lbs and measuring 34 weeks.  Still in breech position, so I have been scheduled for another ultrasound April 30.  Due date is still set around June 7th and Dr. Madden says everything is moving along very good and the baby looks great.  Also there is still plenty of room & time for baby to flip.

Me on the other hand...
Haven't been sleeping well for a few weeks now and feeling pretty tight in my clothing.  The boys loves how she is kicking or as Will say's "boxing".

William

William decided to change his close this afternoon to play outside and fly a kite.  This is how he decided to dress for the adventure and the kite is now all tied up in the play set.
Notice the hat, shorts, soccer socks, soccer guards, and shoes...
very creative for just flying a kite!

Lets go WILD!

William was in my hair products all day on Friday.  His hair was so matted down and his forehead was crusty with all the dried up product.    By the end of the day, Will found some blue hair spray.  Jack was home by then and he thought he need some blue hair too.  So we got out the blow drier and blue spray and had some fun with daddy.
