Happy 4th of July

Well it has been a while since I have posted. As you can imagine it has been a little crazy around my house. It has been so fun staying home with my two girls. I love spending time with Kendal. I just can't believe how fast time is going by. I don't want to go back to working in a few weeks. The 4th was great. We went to the parade and watched fireworks. Pat is in South Dakota seeing the black hills. We miss him and want him to come home. Presley is such a good baby. She is sleeping so great. We just have to work on getting a schedule down and not a feed me on demand schedule.

She's Here!!!

Well I am finally putting a post. Presley Thomas is here. June 13th. Yes, Friday the 13th. She was born at 2:48 p.m. and weighed 7lbs 11oz and was 20 inches long. I woke up that morning and was having contractions but then they stopped so I went to work. When I got there they started up again I finally left work at 10 and called Pat and drove to the hospital. I was praying that they wouldn't send me home. When I got there they checked me and I was at a 5. I was so releived when the nurse told me that I was staying. Thankfully the delivery went fast this time but... My epidural didn't work. Yep you heard it. It didn't work I was in so much pain. My Dr. got there at about 1 to break my water and I was at a 7 he said he would be back in about an hour to check on me. When he got there at about 2:15 I still had a little while so he thought. He said that he was going to his office and told the nurse to check me in about 20 minutes and call him. I was having contractions and they hurt so bad. I felt like I had to push so the nurse came in to check on my and had me push once and told me to stop and yelled at someone to call my Dr and get his butt back here right now. When he got there I was so ready to have her out. I pushed about 3 times and her head was out and he had me push once more and she just pretty much fell out. Can I just tell you that I was so releived that it was over. She is such a good baby and all is well. Here are some pictures. Sorry the pictures didn't work yesterday but they are there now. You can also look on http://www.hospitalportraits.com/ and go to June 13 and look at those pictures.

June 10

Well here it is June 10th and no baby. You would think with all of my contractions and everything that I would in the hospital or at least have a baby by now. I have 4 days left and I feel it. I go back to the Dr. on Thursday so hopefully I won't make it there but we will see.

Baby or No Baby that is the Question?

Hello!! It seems to me that I am doomed to be pregnant forever. I went to the Dr. yesterday and still no change. Not to lack of trying anyway. I have been to the hospital 3 times with major contractions. I am at a 2 and 80%. The Dr. was amazed that I had made no progress with all of the contractions. Well I have today and tomorrow to have this baby or I have to wait until the doc gets back on Sunday afternoon. So... I am praying that my theory about the full moon tonight and the storm rolling in tonight/tomorrow that it will cause some change and maybe just maybe I will be taken out of this miserable state of forever pregnancy that I am in. Oh, and by the way happy anniversary to Pat. Love You!! Yesterday was our 7th anniversary. I will post a picture of my present that I got later. I am so excited for it but... Pat won't let me use it until after I have the baby. I keep telling him that I am sure it will put me into labor but he is not so sure of that.

BABY UPDATE!!

Well Thursday I left work because I was having contractions so hard and fast but... Well obviously nothing happened. I was at a 2 and about 70%. I just got back from the Dr. and I am still the same. Last Thursday I was not ready for the baby but... Now I am and nothing is happening. I know that I am being whiny and complaining but I am done now. Ready its ok to come now baby.

Cooling off

So even though it's rainy out it has cooled down which has been really nice. I broke down last weekend and bought some dresses. I actually like wearing them because I can get a nice draft on my legs. Even though I am probably blinding people with them because they are sooo white and it's a little hard at the moment to put on a good coat of sunless tanner. June 14th here I come. I go to the Dr. on Tuesday morning so I will post an update of where we stand. Saturday was Kendals dance recital it was so cute. She did such a good job. I am not just saying that because I am the mom either. She did all of the dances and didn't get nervous about going on stage once. I will bring my camera cord and post some pictures of her later. I have been really busy at work so I usually don't have time to post in the mornings like I normally do and when I get home Kendal wants to play. So I will get some pictures updated soon.

Waiting Game

Well we are now playing the waiting game. I have 4 weeks or 29 days left (however you want to say it). I went to the Dr. on Monday and I didn't gain any weight from my last appointment which made me pretty happy considering all of the ice cream I have been eating trying to get rid or soothe the heart burn that I have now been plagued with now. I brought up my bouncer seat from storage on Monday and was trying to get it put together real quick before Pat's softball game well the real quick didn't happen. I couldn't figure it out. It took me until Wednesday night to finally figure it out. I guess I wasn't supposed to take off one part. But I finally got it. Yeah!!! I was ready to just go and buy a new one. I will keep you updated on my status over the next few weeks. I just hope that it doesn't stay hot hot hot for the next month or it is going to miserable. I only have jeans and some sweat shorts. I don't think my work would be to keen on me showing up in those.
