38 weeks

So here we are, another week-I NEVER thought she would still be hanging out, but apparently she is cozy and happy and thinks she can stay in there forever! I went back this morning and have progressed even more-almost 4 cm and she is even lower down in my pelvic bone than last week, so she is moving towards that direction, but still hasn't made her mind up 100% that she's ready to face the world! I go back next Tuesday if she isn't here yet and then we set an induction date for next Thursday if she still hasn't come. So we'll see what the next week has to hold and either way are hoping to have a baby by next Thursday!

Happy 4th of July

We had a very relaxing 4th and then went over to some friends house for a cookout, some pool time, smores and fireworks. Thought we might have a new little firecracker of our own, but she decided to stay in where it's comfy and quiet for a little while longer!

Such cuties playing in the water!

Parade

We had another great week full of fun activities and then got a 3 day holiday weekend with daddy. We went to the 4th of July parade on Sat morning and had such a good time!

My sunshine

the cutest girl in the world! (I have to say that as much as I can, because soon she will be one of two of the cutest girls in the world :)

Grandma this is for you, eating some Cheetos...another member in our Cheetos loving gang. Although they are called "chico chips" in our house :) And yes, she has discovered another way of eating them-dipped in mandarin orange juice! I should call for a new commercial idea :)

37 weeks

Well, even more progress....3 cm and 75% effaced with a little munchkin weighing in around 6 lbs/4 oz (but that is give or take around 8 oz) so she could be as small as 5/12 or as big as 6/12.

Her heart rate was around 154 and she was "practicing" her breathing which was fun to watch. She was moving and squirming (as much as she had room to) and her toes were so cute, skinny & long just like Claire's were!

The doctor said see you in a week, but that she really thinks Caroline will come sometime this week! So will she make her appearance before the end of June or will she come with the fireworks this weekend.....we'll see!!

36 weeks

Another checkup today and things look good. More progress: 2cm & 60% effaced, so she is working hard & getting ready for her big day! We got our L&D tour and got to preregister, so all is ready when we get to the hospital. I go back next week for my weekly check and another ultrasound to see how much she weighs. Will post new updates soon!

Happy Fathers Day

This week was another busy one, but good! Lots of time at the pool, playing with friends, and music & art class. We got to make some fun fathers day gifts for daddy and her favorite was a t-shirt that she could color, draw and design herself. She decided to trace her hand prints and then added some very creative pictures of herself :) Daddy loved it, of course! We enjoyed a family date afternoon at the movies while it stormed on Sat and then went out to dinner to celebrate fathers day. It was a good weekend with some special "last few days of just the three of us" bonding time!!
