Doctor's Appointment

My doctor's appointments will start being on my "WEEK" mark starting this coming Tuesday but this week I went today (Thursday). It was my first REAL CHECK to see if I've started at all. Now, I have to say that before I went I was a little concerned because I was nervous that (1) I'd be at 0 cm and 0% effaced and that would just be disappointing BUT (2) that they'd say oh wow! you're at 5 cm and 100% effaced you're not leaving go downstairs. Bryce's mom left for Savannah this morning and will be gone until Tuesday night and my dad just had minor surgery on his foot this past Monday so it would be hard for my mom to come up! SOOOOOOOOOOOO I was nervous! Glad to say NEITHER of those things happened. I'm at 1 cm and I'm 50% effaced!! Wahoo! I know I can be that until my due date but I've felt for the last couple weeks that I won't make it that far. (And not just because of wishful thinking). I also found out that my doctor will be out of town from October 8th-October 19th (I'm due the 20th!!!) so we decided today (me and Robert) that he's coming on October 7th. I'll have a doctors appointment on October 6th and the 7th is MY dad's birthday and so it will be a great birthday present for my dad :) So hopefully Robert sticks to his end of our deal and actually listens :) If not, I guess someone else is delivering him because I don't want to wait until my due date! IT'S GETTING SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CLOSE!!!!

36 weeks

I take a picture every week BUT I forget to post them :) Here is my picture from today. I am 36 weeks today and have less than a month to go!!! (Sunday was my month mark!) We had a little scare last week, which really was just annoying because you kind of get excited (ok, a lot excited) and then NOTHING! Now I'm really anxious to meet Robert and hold him and kiss him and love him. Bryce gave me an amazing blessing last week and I feel at total peace with the upcoming birth. I'm SUPER SCARED but know everything will be alright! 28 days and counting. I had originally decided that the 8th or 9th would be perfect for this little man to come but now I'd be alright if he came tomorrow ;). J/K (kind of!)

After looking at this picture....seriously when did my boobs and belly become ONE? Oh my heavens, what am I going to do when my milk comes in!

34 weeks!!!

Wow! I didn't realize I was slacking on the blog posts. This is my 34 week picture and a picture of my feet last week! They were having MAJOR issues! They're all better now! A lot has happened in the past two weeks, but mainly we got Robert's room all put together. The only left to do in there is get all Bryce's tools OUT! He likes to leave his tools in the house! Silly Boy! I'll post some pictures of his room after I take them. Oh! I guess I need to hang all the pictures and everything like that :) But all his clothes are put away and his furniture is where we're keeping it AND we got a rocker recliner last weekend as well and I LOVE IT. I read my book in it last night! It was heaven. I also caught Bryce in there sitting in the dark TWICE this weekend. He's really nervous but he's getting really excited!! We did the baby's room Saturday of Labor Day weekend and Monday we cleaned the garage so now we can fit the 4-Runner in the garage so that I don't have to scrape windows in the mornings during the winter!!! wahoo!!! This weekend I have to go thru all the boxes we brought into the house and get the guest room all put back together :) Then I really only have my craft room left to organize and our house will be all put together :) WOW! What would that be like! Can't believe that the baby will be here in about 39 days! Give or take a few :) Robert and I had a little discussion this morning (I was having some pretty bad contractions from throwing up :() and we agreed he'd come in 28 days if he wouldn't come today. So Yeah! :) He better not back out on his part of the deal.
