36 weeks

Hello everyone! I got a new camera yesterday...here is me at 36weeks and 3 days. So far I have gained a total of 15lbs. I lost a pound at the last appt - not sure how I did it but I did. We are still set to have a c-section 1/29. Doc did say if I do happen to go in on my own that he will go a head and do a c-section anyway. He said that I am measuring small but still thinks she is a good size baby. I have not dilated any and I will not have anymore of those kind of exams because he doesn't want to stir up any hormone that would induce my labor.

Last weekend we had my shower and it came out beautifully! She is all set to be here thanks to everyone's generous gifts. I had a great time!

In less than two weeks and she will be here. Good bye for now!

Daniels 3rd Christmas

So of course my camera takes a dump on me on Christmas eve. I have a lot of ok pictures. I hope to be getting a new camera before the new baby gets here. Daniel got a nice John Deere Tractor from his dads side of the family. He absolutley loves it and takes to it awesome! He couldn't figure out the whole steering thing of it but by day two he was a champ! He also has been into chainsaws and he got a craftsman chainsaw from his grandma and papa and he can't let go of it. I am jealous!

32 weeks

Brooke Update

Today I am 32 weeks and I went in for my prenatal appt. I have gained a total of 13 lbs so far. Crazy to think that I am actually not putting it on this time around. Unlike Daniel, I am not swollen. I have started a bit in my face but nothing huge like I did with Daniel. Yesterday I received my appt for surgery. If she does not come on her own, she will be born 2.4.10. Chris and I have to be at the hospital at 5:30am and I go into surgery at 7:30am. I am not looking forward to being helpless or relying on someone else for help and chasing a two yr old around the house. But if it's what has to be done I have no other choice. I was really hoping to have a v-vac this time around but I guess I am not so lucky. I should be getting another ultrasound here soon to determind how big she is and how she is doing this far along in the pregnancy. Just wanted to give everyone an update!! Love you all! Take care and have a Merry Christmas if I do not get another blog in before then!

Helping around the house

Hello everyone! Here is a family update. Today I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and countin down the weeks and days til we meet Brooke. I have loaded some pictures of Daniel helping us around the place. We should hopefully have internet out at our place by the end of the month so there will be more updates to come!

3D updated

Today Chris and I went in to see what our little girl is going to look like. Unfortunately she was in a bad position and she had her arm in from of her face so we could not get a good ultrasound on her. We go in on Wed to try again. So far I have gained a total of 7lbs and I am officially 28 weeks today. Tahlia (the PA) briefly discussed the day that she will be delivered. Since my doc does surgeries on Wednesday, she will be delievered on 2/3/10. Daniel is doing great. He is in his testing age for sure and whats to test us to our limits. But for the most part he is a great kid! Thought I would give everyone an update. Sorry no pix. The computer comes home tomorrow and the camera is full of pictures!! Hopefully we will get internet here shortly.
