Baby Soon?

I don't remember being this ready to be done with pregnancy when I was pregnant with Kelsi. I am 38 wks and count every cx hoping and praying they con't. I had a Drs appt today. I am 100 effaced but only 1 cm dilated!!!! The baby's head actually moved up not down! Lets say I was not too excited. My dr did strip my membranes and if that doesn't work we will be induced next week thank goodness. I am just so worried I have such a big baby and that's why the head won't descend into the pelvis. I guess time will tell! My blood pressure is staying under wraps. Working with nurses I think my blood pressure is taken at least 3 times a shift so its monitored closely. I am down to 8hr shifts which is helping.

Happy 4rth!!

Happy Fourth!! I hope everyone had a great and safe time!! We were blessed with such nice weekend! My parents came over the night of the fourth for a fire and fireworks. Auntie Crystal was home so Kelsi was quite excited. We had friends over saturday night. Kelsi and her friend Ben had a great time on the four wheeler!! The weekend ended with running through the sprinkler!!
Update on the pregnancy. Last Tuesday I had a Dr. Appt. Thought everything was going great however my weight gain had increase considerable for me in 2 weeks and my blood pressure was 140/93. I usually run very low blood pressure. My dr checked me right away. I am closed, thick, and high, (no sign of pending labor) and sent me to the hospital for further testing. The baby looked great for the non-stress test. My blood pressure went back down, my labs were normal, and they did an ultrasound of the baby. I wasn't quite 35 weeks but I measured 38 1/2 weeks!!!!! So she wanted to see how big this baby was. I find out on Tuesday. For now my blood pressure is reasonable and I am down to 8hr shifts instead of 12. We con't to pray for this little one to keep growing in me and stay healthy!!!!

Hott Fun!!!

We had a another great time at my Great-Uncle Waynes cabins the end of June with my parents, my sister, and my Grandma Donna. Fishing was great and the water temp wasn't too bad. Jeff and Kelsi were able to go tubing. Kelsi loved it till her and her daddy did a face dive into the water. Hopefully this weekend we can get her back on the tube!! Fishing was actually a surprising experience for Kelsi! Usually she is the typically girl not wanting to get too dirty. She wanted to hold the fish, give the fish kisses, and loved handing us our bait!! She had the luck of the weekend fishing. There was something about her and her Diego pole that the fish liked!!!

Summer Time Fun

So far this summer we have been busy with weddings, playing at the park, and going to the zoo. We are having so much fun with Kelsi's age. A few tantrums now and then but what else can expect with a 2year old!!! This weekend is saddle horse holiday and next weekend is vacation at the cabin!!!!

10weeks left!!!

I hit my 30week marker this weekend!!! I had a Dr. Appt this week. Everything is going great. My DB check was normal. My hgb dropped from 13 to 9.6. I guess I don't have to worry about complaining about being too tired!!!. I gained 8lbs this month. (I know) At least the Dr. was happy! I have pictures coming soon! My belly is def. much bigger at this stage then with Kelsi. Even though I weighed about 25lbs more!! Kelsi is already going through adjustments. She wants her babies nuk and bottle and wants us to feed her bottle to her!! We will see how things change when the baby does come!

Hello Spring

Kelsi has enjoyed getting into her spring dresses this past month. I guess besides the 11inches of snow we got on Friday. We spend most of my days off at the park and walking. Kelsi just doesn't understand why we can't run in her stroller anymore!! She has been giving us a hard time at nap time and bedtime not wanting to sleep in her bed, even though she has been since last september. We are hoping that goes away by August!!!!

Home improvements con't. Jeff is finishing up the bathroom downstairs so we can finally start the nursery!!!

We had an ultrasound 2 weeks ago and thankfully everything is going well despite my no weight gain. I have a feeling this month we have gained a few!! My appetite is back and I am enjoying food again!!!

The bottom picture Kelsi decided to get her makeup out and have mom be "gorgous"!!

Crazy 2 months

It has been way to long since my last blog. I apologize!! I accepted to teach an extra clinical day this semester which is 3 plus con't to do my 2-3 12hr shifts in Tyler. I know I am crazy!!! I am finally done with that. I just got over a 5 day spout of some infection. Temps 102 -103, Tylenol not working, not being able to eat or drink!!! Not good~~ Thank goodness for a wonderful husband.
The pregnancy is going better. I am 19 weeks and down 7lbs! Food is starting to taste better to me now. I am starting to get a belly and I am measuring on with my dates. The end of the month we have another ultrasound! And no we are not going to find out the sex!!!
Kelsi con't to be my precious angel!!! The things this child comes out with. The other day she told Jeff his joke wasn't funny!!! and then followed with the next day to Jeff "I'm looking at you punk" !!!!! What a joy!
Pictures to follow soon
