Just A Quick Update

By -
     I had a doctors appointment this morning and everything looks like its in ship shape! My blood pressure is good, Lincoln's heartbeat is 136 and my belly is measuring right in the healthy range. Also, I'm 50% effaced (I was 20% at last Monday's appointment) and still a fingertip dilated.
     Speaking of bellies, Josh measured the circumference of my belly; 44 inches! Holy cow!
     I'm still planning to have a med-free birth and I'm getting antsy for Linc's arrival. I've found out that I'm kind of an obsessive nester. I've re-organized Lincoln's stuff 3 or 4 times and I've unpacked my suitcase twice now to make sure I have everything packed in advance that I can. I don't know what's wrong with me, I'm just so worried that I'll forget something that I need!
     I'm very ready to have my baby! I'm looking forward to what the next few weeks have in store! :)

Thanks for reading!

Kenzie. you are so cute lol :) I was like that too I would like to re-do my guess on when he will arrive i think he will arive Not this weekend but the next :) I hope everything goes smoothly for you and that you will have an amazing experience. My advice for after you have him, DO NOT LET THE DOCTORS DEPRIVE YOU OF HIM :) If you wanna see him or have him brought to your room you tell them :) You are the boss not them :) I tell you this because they did that to me :) Enjoy him :) They grow up so fast :)

Something Terrible Happened

By -
I'm not sure exactly how to start this post, but I know it needs to be written. I don't want to forget this experience even though it feels so painful. Last week, I was a little over 4 weeks along and my prenatal vitamins came in the mail. I was diligently making a pregnancy test chart to compare the darkness of the test lines from the day before. I was feeling so much better than I did before our pregnancy loss last year (the second line was visible for a day and then the line disappeared and my cycle started soon after) since the test line was clearly visible, even from an arms length away. The day after I started my vitamins, I noticed that my nausea had basically gone away, something I was thrilled about since I hate feeling sick like that. My skin started breaking out worse than it had all week and I chalked it up to pregnancy hormones. We had my in-laws over for Mother's Day and just before we started cooking up S'mores, I felt a wave of depression hit me. I ...

Three More Weeks

By -
     So Josh and I finally saved enough to make one of our dreams come true... We are buying a house!       We looked at a grand total of three properties. The first one we looked at we loved, but we found out the day after we looked at it that there is a mold problem that has been going on for the past ten years. We immediately got as far away as possible, and started looking at the properties our realtor sent us through email. We found two more townhomes that looked interesting, so she scheduled the showings.      We looked at them both on October 11th. The first one was an odd layout, it had two bedrooms with a bathroom attached to each one individually (it seemed to be suited better for two college roomies as opposed to a growing family, like us) but we wanted to keep our minds open, just in case the second one of the day was not great either.      The moment we pulled up to the house, I knew it was gonna be really wel...

We Got The Keys!

        We got the keys on Tuesday! It feels so weird to hold the key to our house  in my hands. Its surreal, and I still haven't gotten used to it!      The boys and I went over to collect the keys and garage door openers and it felt so good walking in. I can't believe that its only one more day until we are in our own house! It will be just wonderful!      If I remember, I will take pictures of moving in and I'll make a post! Thanks for reading!
