Great time with Great friends!

Saturday was a great day at our house! Casey had cooked supper for us and when she came to deliver it Moma and Olivia were here to visit. We sat on the back porch so the kids could play outside. Aubrey and Olivia got in the pool, that had been empty, but that day it had a little rain water in it. Lucas pointed his finger and said "no no girls". It was funny! Casey got one of Aubrey's toy kitchens for Shelby to play with and as soon as she sat it down the big kids all jumped on it. Needless to say Shelby didn't get much play time with it. They all had a big time playing together and everyone left very sleepy. We enjoyed our yummy gumbo for supper, Thanks Casey!!

35 Weeks and still holding on

I went to the Dr. today and not much had changed since last week(that's a good thing). I am still not allowed to do much other than stay in the bed or on the couch. He said we are just going to be prepared that she is coming early and that each day I am pregnant is better for her. Our goal is to make it to October.

I must have looked really pregnant today because everyone seemed to do there best to make everything go by quickly and smooth. The nurse didn't even make me sit and wait she just hurried me on back "to save me a few steps" and another nurse gave me the "how much longer do you have" when I told her she said oh no not even that long. HA HA, Um thanks!


Notice my nose is really growing!

Actually everything is just really growing!

33 week photo, 34 week update

Last Thursday night I started hurting pretty bad and when I got up that morning it was obvious the baby was sitting lower than the day before. So we thought it would be a good idea if I spent the weekend on the couch or in the bed. I had a checkup Monday morning after a not so exciting weigh in I explained to the Dr what all was going on, I didn't mention the back pain though because I was pretty sure that the extra 17lbs I am now waddling around had a lot to do with that, he said that I have started to dilate. He was concerned since Aubrey had came 3 weeks early and I was hurting and that the baby was already low. So I am now on Semi bed rest, you could also call it common sense rest, basically if I am doing something that causes contractions STOP and sit down. He said I couldn't go back to work and for me to get help with Aubrey, so she is getting lots of spoiling from the grand parents. Yesterday was not a good day, a good bit of hurting. We are praying that baby girl will slow down for a few more weeks. I am hoping for at least 4 more weeks.

Me at 33 weeks, I forgot to take a picture before my appointment this week

Sunday School Shower

My Sunday school class gave us a little baby shower during class. I don't have but 3 pictures from the shower because they seemed to scared to work my camera and I didn't think the check the camera to see what setting it was on so the few I have aren't that good. But here they are! It was a great little shower, we got some very useful stuff including lots of diapers.

To Ellen's house we go!

Last week was a very big week for us, Aubrey went to an official babysitter for the first time. Normally on Thursdays when I go to work she either stays with Moma or she goes with me. We figured that with the new baby coming soon that Aubrey could go to a babysitter where she could play with other kids and baby sister could come with me or stay with Moma.

Wednesday Aubrey and I went to Ms Ellen's house to play for a little while. I was very nervous because I didn't know how she would do considering that she really doesn't care for many adults. We had been praying about where she should go and that God would give us peace about where she should be. When we got out of the car she saw all the other kids and took off running and squealing and started hugging them like they were her long lost friends and the other kids were just as excited to see her.(and god said here is your peace!)While we was there the kids helped feed the goats,chickens and horses, we had just missed the gathering of the eggs.(very country day care) We stayed for a couple hours and when it got time to leave Aubrey wanted to stay. I took that as a great sign. When we took her the next day she walked rite up to the door, went in and gave Corynn(a girl from church) a big hug and they went off to play. I had to beg for a goodbye hug. Momma picked her up at 12 so she would be here when I got in from work. Today is her first full day and I am praying it goes just as good!

I said Aubrey are you excited to go to Ms. Ellen's, this is the face she made!


She didn't want pictures, she was ready to go
