IT'S A GIRL!!

We had a Christmas baby! We delivered Madelyn on December 25th at 4:14 A.M. My water broke at work on Christmas Eve, which was perfect since I work on the Labor and Delivery floor. We labored for 13 hours and pushed for almost 2 hours when my doctor decided to take me to the O.R. for a cesarean section. She weighed 7 lbs 3 oz and was 19 3/4 inches long. She had jaundice so she had to be under the "bili" lights for a couple of days while we were in the hospital. She is the sweetest baby! Kyle and I are just amazed at what this little person has done to our world :)

37.3 weeks!

I've dropped! I feel much more pressure...and I'm getting more and more uncomfortable. I don't think the baby has any room in there :) The girls at work put me on the monitor yesturday and the heart rate was in the 150's and 140's. I'm ready for our baby to be here!

35 weeks and counting!

I am 35.4 weeks! In a week and a half I'll be considered full term :) It's going by so quickly! The nursery is finished. We went to our childbirth class last weekend and a breastfeeding class last Wednesday. We bought the car seat yesturday. I've got a bag packed for the hospital. I even bought some de-icer just in case I go into labor and there is ice on our car! It's a little soon, but I think we're ready!!

What are we having???

I'm almost 32 weeks now, and all I can think about it baby this and baby that! I'm making so many lists that in the end just get me even more anxious! Also, it's getting even harder not knowing what we're having. It's fun...don't get me wrong, but so hard! Everyone has their guesses about what they think it is. :) What do you think it is??

Baby Baby Baby!!

Chloe thinks she is the new baby...

I found this new bouncy seat at a garage sale and Chloe loves it!

It's just her size, but she's not going to like it when I kick her

out of it and the baby is our new priority!

Kyle's Birthday

October 15th was Kyle's 26th birthday! I had a big combined party which celebrated Kyle, his mom Virginia and our friend Jennifer's birthdays. It was fun and we had a lot of people in our new house, which was so neat! Kyle got a new 19-volt power drill :)
