A Little Piece of Heaven

IMG_0869

My newest love was born yesterday, April 29th at 1:59am.  She was 6lbs 3 oz and 19 inches long.  I know I’m her mom but she is absolutely amazing.  I’m so excited to see her little features develop and her personality to shine through. On Wednesday my water broke at 1:30pm while Caleb was napping. …

Final Countdown

Isabella is due on Saturday so we are on the last few days.  I woke up at 5:45 this morning with some cramping.  I’ve had cramping on and off all day but hasn’t progressed into contractions.  I’m really hoping that means we are getting close.  I’m am little nervous that I was already 3 cm …

This cutting board once held a full pizza – plates are for amatures. My husband finished his pizza with “That was good. I could eat another one.”

Yesterday, while nesting, Donavan and I went through all of our shoes and put together a donation pile. We have now narrowed our shoes down to 3 shoe racks and 2 hanging shoe holders. Of the shoes I had to part with the most difficult pair were my green Asics trail running shoes. These are …

Leave of Absence

Yesterday was my last day of work.  I don’t officially start leave until Monday and my mom comes to visit/help out on Tuesday.  I have mixed feelings about starting leave.  I’m mostly excited, a little nervous, and a bit sad.  I’m excited because that means Isabella will be here soon.  I’m excited to spend more …

The Call

It wasn’t actually the call it was an email but “The Email” doesn’t sound as interesting for a title.  I heard from my doctor today, who let me know that the sonogram yesterday went well.  They wanted to measure her fetal development to make sure every thing was on track.   We looked at the …

Little Foot

We got back from our follow-up ultrasound today after I measured small at yesterday’s appointment.   Isabella is still measuring a little small but not has much as was originally thought.  Today’s ultrasound measures her at about 36.5 weeks in size and over 6.5lbs.  All of her organs and development are on track.  I have …

Dont Tell My Husband

Don’t tell my husband but… I was wrong.  I don’t often like to admit when I’m wrong but I claimed last week that my intuition said Isabella would be here by now.  Well I’m obligated to report that Izzie has yet to make her debut.  I went to my 38 week appointment today which was …

Sunny Days

The weather is finally looking up so I took Caleb to the park on Saturday.  Here are some fun photos from that day.  His dribbling skills have gotten very good.  I think we have a Pele in our midst.
