Ava's room

Okay first let me say that the last post is not as neat as I was trying to get it. I tried messing with it to fix it, but had no luck. So, I am over it!!

I had a Dr.s appt today. I am 80% efaced and her head is getting pretty far down. Now I know why I have been waddling and why it hurts to bend down because she is DOWN there!!! Ouch! I haven't dilated at all. Hopefully, next visit I will have started that. I go once a week now, so we are in the home stretch!! Here are pictures of her room. It is finished.....YIPPEE!!!

Baby Shower & 5 more weeks!

My sister & niece came into town for the baby shower. It was so nice to spend such good quality time with them. The shower was at my Aunts house (pictured left). The girls did a FABULOUS job at planning the shower. I could not have asked for a better time with friends and family! The day after the shower my mom, sis and niece came over to get the room set up with all the things I got from the shower and we went to Babies R Us to get more necessities. This house is finally starting to take shape of a baby about to enter into this household. It is getting exciting and I am getting VERY nervous to actually give birth! Last night at childbirth class when it got to the part of "labor positions" I had to get up announce to the class that I did not feel like doing this, have fun and we'll see everyone next week! Sans quickly followed me out and then let me know how rude I was! I looked at him and then lost it! These crazy ass hormones are getting the best of me.I had to have a good cry and then I was over it!

6 more weeks. on Friday..am I counting right???

I am getting SO excited for the baby shower this weekend. It will be so much fun getting together with so many friends and family. My sister and niece are flying in from Texas and I can't wait to see them! There is nothing like some good quality girl time!

Well, this baby girl is moving down. I am officially a waddler! She still manages to kick my ribs, but I guess she is positioning herself to get the heck out of there and I can't wait!!

Oh and we started our childbirth class. That was absolutely hilarious. Our instructor was seriously from the 70s. Okay picture this....long stringy hair, crocs, and a sweatshirt tied around her waist...oh and the librarian glasses! She has a funny voice and is very animated. I just kept laughing the whole class because it felt like I was in a Saturday Night Live skit! Atleast she is entertaining! I had Sans whispering in my ear while we were supposed to be doing breathing exercises.....JUST GIVE ME THE DRUGS!! I am not quite sure what kind of coach he is going to be. Luckily, I will have my mom & Aunts there! He said he is going to be an amazing coach....we'll see! I could see him looking like a deer in headlights and going around asking the nurses a million questions! I better take some gifts with me to the hospital because they are going to get really annoyed with him and all his questions! I gotta butter them up somehow, so I get taken care of!

Oh I got her bedding this week as well. I am not in love with it, but it turned out nice. The one fabric I picked out is a different shade then I thought. That is what I get for picking fabric swatches on the Internet! I will post pics soon, but I am lagging on her room. The goal is by next week her room will be completed. Wish me luck!!

8 months! 32 weeks.....8 more weeks to go!!!

Here she is....Holy cow!!! I feel like I am growing by the minute! We are both getting quite crowded. She loves to kick me in the ribs and keep me up at all hours of the night! I feel for her as much as I do myself! I always think do babies feel really crammed in there? I am hoping she would like to make her arrival 2 weeks early!

Oh exciting news I am getting her bedding delivered this Thursday! Can't wait to set it all up and finish her room. I just gotta get Sans to patch about 20 holes he created in the wall because he just couldn't find a darn stud to hang a shelf! Gee my husband is so handy to have around the house! I will post pics as soon as I am done with her room.

Drs Visit today

It was a busy appt day today. We first met with a pediatrician that was recommended. We like her and she is more into the holistic route which is up our alley. So, we picked her as Ava's Dr. Then we were off to my Dr.s appt.  Dr. Dunn walked in with his goofy glasses and his typical funny saying....Ding Dong it's Dr. Dunn. It cracks us up everytime for some reason. He asked...."so how are you feeling?" I told him "I am all done...take the baby out!" He started laughing and saying that it wasn't the first time he has heard that. He said bad news it is only going to get worse in the weeks to come. Thanks Doc! So, you can't help me? 

The good news is that it looks like she has turned and is out of the breech position. She is head down...where she is supposed to be! I have now graduated to Drs visits to every 2 weeks for 1 month then in October I will be going in once a week until Miss Ava makes her grand entrance to the world! Can't wait!
