Baby Update


Well, things are going about the same. I have been contracting since Sunday morning and there hasn't been a break. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and was 90% effaced and 1.5cm dilated. Its all up to this baby to drop down a little more and then we may be in business. Hopefully he will make up his mind soon....this is getting old! Lol!

I will keep the update going as best I can! Hope everyone is doing well.

Baby Update


I started contracting early Sunday morning and have not had a break!! They seem to be every 3-8 minutes. I went in to the hospital for an OB check yesterday and they say that it is early labor and could go like this for days!! Aaaaahhh! It hurts so bad, the pain is getting more intense and makes it near to impossible to sleep when I am waking up every few minutes in PAIN!!

I am 37 weeks pregnant and considered full term, so we will have a healthy baby! We just don't know when he is going to make his appearance. David is handling the contractions well, we just need him to drop down a little more.

I will do my best to keep everyone posted. I try to get on the computer between the pain. Lol!

My Blessing of the Day


Today as I was laying in bed feeling miserable with this cold, my phone rang! It was RW! His calls are always the greatest to get. I talked to him for a few minutes and he asked me to get on my military email so I could talk to him on that instant messenger. So I got to talk to him 3 times today! Twice on the computer and once on the phone. I guess he was in a different office for today and had some internet access but he couldn't be on it long! I will take whatever I can get! :) YAY!
I was really happy to be able to talk to him. He is doing well, he is just a tired guy and has been working some long hours. Other than that he sounded great! It was a nice surprise to be able to talk to him that many times in a day, so even though I don't feel well at all, that was a nice blessing and made me forget about being sick for just a little bit!

Vacation Bible School



It has been a fun week of Vacation Bible School. My mom and I worked in crafts so we were able to see ALL the kiddos as they came through. It was a lot of fun, I got to spend some time with some people that I haven't seen in a while, so that was really nice. The Lord also blessed us with a COOL week...the building we were working in didn't have air conditioning, it didn't get hot in there at all. Thank you Jesus!

The theme of VBS was Studio GO. It was a game show theme. Everyday was a different story from the Bible. So the crafts we made went along with the story of the day. We made some fun things, I think the one of the fun days was when we made Queen Esther's crown. Miss Lily looked so darn cute in her little crown, what a little princess! I had to make myself one so I matched the girls! :)

It was a fun week! Now its time to get things done to prepare for Mr. David! :)

Summer


So far summer hasn't been bad! We have spent some time over at our friend Michelle's house swimming in their pool. I have an interesting tan going on, but I am tan so I will take it! LOL! We had Gracie's 10th birthday party over there and had blast! It feels nice to be in the water, although I feel like a huge whale! "Somebody throw Shamu back into the ocean!" Lol! :) Hopefully I can get a few more swims in before David makes his arrival!

Oh the many joys of pregnancy

As I sit here preparing for bed, David is kicking and squirming like crazy. Which is why I haven't been sleeping at all! Between his parties at night and all the bathroom trips, it is almost more work to try and sleep than to just stay up! LOL! He is a busy little guy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Movement is a good sign of a healthy active baby! That's what we want! :)

I have just entered in to my 8th month of pregnancy, and oh man the changes that have occurred are crazy! I have had a really easy going pregnancy this far, no real complaints everything has been great! Now, I am having a bunch of symptoms ALL at once! Its insane! I am super tired, have really bad acid indigestion, my back hurts, I can't sleep, it is getting really hard to breathe, I am moody (more than usual for those who know me! LOL!) and I am starting to leak milk! Aaaahhh!! But hey, that's how it goes I guess. I am almost to the end and I really don't want to rush it, so despite my complaints and ailments I do want him to stay put as long as he can so we have a nice healthy little boy! Just keep us in your prayers...especially at night! Know that we are probably still awake! LOL! :)

Roley Baby update

I had a doctor's appointment today. I am 33 weeks and everything is looking good. No problems, which is how we like it! The doctor let Grace and Jeffrey help him find the baby's heartbeat. Jeffrey got to squirt the gel on and Gracie got to help the doctor find David's heartbeat! They thought that was neat and had fun helping. I am optimistic that everything will continue to go so well. I will start childbirth classes next week. I can't believe that in only 6 weeks RW and I will be parents! It is exciting and scary all at the same time!We are in for a big adventure and can't wait! :)
