9/11.....

.....looks to be Ms. Emma's birthday! Unless of course I go in labor before obviously! I went for my 38 week check up this morning and they put me on the schedule for a c-section Thursday morning (9/11). Wow.. 9 days.. HOLY COW! We are still trying to finish up our house so that we can move this weekend! Geez.. no pressure! HA Please just pray for our patience and our nerves!! I go back to the dr. next Tues. for one last check up and then meet Ms. Emma Thursday (if not before). Thanks in advance for all your continued prayers! Love!!

It's almost time for Emma!!

Sorry for such a long delay between posts! We have just been so busy preparing for the baby. We are trying to finish remodeling our house and get moved before Emma's arrival. We are down to the wire now!! I went to the doctor yesterday for another checkup and she weighs over 7 lbs. and has a head full of hair they say!! I could go anytime between now and the 18th, but I think it will probably be a scheduled C-section in about 2 weeks. I go back next Tuesday and will schedule it then! Of course I could go anytime so who knows! We are all getting so excited and can't wait to just hold her!! Please just keep us in your prayers that we get everything ready for her arrival and that she gets here healthy!!! I will let you know as soon as I find out anything new!!!
Also CONGRATULAIONS to the Isham's! I'm so happy for yall and love you very much!!


Love you guys!

Emma's a BIG girl...........ALREADY!

I went to the doctor today for my 34 week check up! As soon as we went in the nurse let us hear the heartbeat (130) and she measured my tummy, which is routine. When she was looking at the measurement, she said "wow you're measuring about 2 weeks ahead, have you been like that the whole time?". I told her no they always just say it looks good. So she said that she would tell the doctor to recheck her measurement. So when Dr. Johnson came in she remeasured and came up with the same thing as the nurse. She then decided that we should have an ultrasound to see just how big Ms. Emma is. So we waited and finally went in for ultrasound. She did her thing, and told us Emma is still a girl (thankfully) and then went on to say that she already weighs 5.7 lbs. (88th percentile) She said to expect to gain 1/2 lb. or so each week from here on out..... that means Ms. Emma is looking like a 9 pounder!!!! Gracie was 8 lbs. so not much bigger, but it was just unreal to think that she is almost 6 lbs. already and we still have 6 weeks to go!! So I have to go back for another glucose test next week (my 3rd one). I hate drinking that yucky stuff. But because of the baby's weight they want to keep a close eye on my sugar level!! Other than that though everything is fabulous!!! We are so excited! We will finally get to meet her in no time at all!! It is really coming on quickly!! Sorry no pics to go with my story - we couldn't get any good shots during the ultrasound because she kept her face hid!!

Look at my big girl!!

Gracie had her pictures made at daycare last month and they came in yesterday! She is so BIG, I can't believe it!! Enjoy!

Baby Shower 7/27/08

I had such an awesome baby shower yesterday! We got tons of stuff! What a blessing to have such wonderful family and friends! It will all be put to good use I'm sure and it is all appreciated more than you know! Thank you so much to all the women (mom, vicki, heather, donna & diana) who put this shower together. There was so much work put into it, not to mention the money spent. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! I love you all!
I also want to thank Maranda for taking pictures for me!! I love ya!
Enjoy the pictures!

32 week update

I went to the doctor yesterday for my 32 week check up and everything is still going great. I am right on track with everything. Heartbeat was very good and her movement was good! We are growing like we should be! The dr. did say that Emma should be head down by now and headed south, but she isn't. She is transverse (sideways), but still has plenty of time to wiggle on around. Sorry I still don't have any new pics to post, but I will get Trampas to take a few new ones to show off the belly! I go back to the doctor in 2 more weeks... please keep us in your prayers!! Thanks!
