One Week

We had a fun little photo shoot in my parents back yard today :)

Emery Jane

Our sweet little girl was born on Friday October 10th, 2008 at 4:10pm. She weighed a whopping 8lbs 14oz, is 21in long and we are totally in LOVE with her

She was a little jaundice so she had to do some sun bathing before we could take her home....:(

Babies Everywhere!!

I came across this video and laughed my head off...(please let me know if you think its as funny as I did) So I wanted to post it to share the laughter and thought, "hey! i might as well share some news as well!" So sticking with the "baby" theme...enjoy!

And on to the news portion...Is it just me or does it feel like everyone is having a babies?? Emery will be my parents 13th grandbaby...my brother Matt and his wife Courtney are expecting their first in March so thats number 14 and THEN

My brother Dave and his wife Jess just recently announced that number 15 is coming in May!! These pictures were taken at Daves 30th birthday celebration and what a celebration it was... :) aw...so needless to say we're all sooo very excited to meet these little ones!

I'm Ready

The past week has been the longest I think this entire pregnancy....I don't think doctors should be allowed to say when they think you'll give birth....let me explain why...At my last appointment (Thursday last week) I was 3 cm dialated and about 80% effaced at which time my obstetrician (who I really like) said "you've done really well for a first time mom! Go ahead and make an appointment for one week but i'm sure i'll see you in the hospital before then :)". Well, its about 8:00 Wednesday night and i'm still pregnant. On Sunday my mom, sister Eda and I went for a long walk hoping to get things going....but nothing. All I got out of it was great conversation and a sore pelvis. So after two days of recovery I decided to try another walk. This time I waddled my way from my house to my parents which is about 2 miles and here I am!



Morgan had class tonight so he got here around 7 to eat and take me home :) So far I haven't had a single contraction so unless something crazy happens tonight, I'll be getting my membranes stripped in the morning. Oh we shall see! :)
