So Excited!

Well, Kyle and I have a long 4 day weekend and then it's back to work on Monday. We can't wait until Monday because we finally get to hear our precious baby's heartbeat. I know that in that instant, everything is going to become even more real! I wish I had more patience than I do right now. But I am really trying to just enjoy each day of this pregnancy and not wish for the time to go by so fast. My Mammaw Gerl told me one time to stop wishing my life away. It didn't make since to me when I was younger, but now it definitely does. So, that's what I'm going to try to do! :)
Since our last post, Kyle and I have purchased a car. We felt that the Camry was on its way to dying so instead of fixing its many problems, we decided to get a more reliable car. We got a great deal on a Honda Civic and it's the perfect size for my short self! Even better, we most likely will be able to pay it off before our baby gets here. Yay! So we can check dependable car off our list of things to do before October.
Well, a new post will come on Monday to give a full report of our doctors visit!

My Lovely Baby Bump!

My belly is getting bigger and bigger each day. Even though I haven't gained any weight by the doctor's scale...it's definitely growing. There has been a request to see the baby bump, so here it is in all its glory! Enjoy! This is me today at 16 weeks.

The Week is Here!

We can't believe this is the week we will see our daughter. Some of you may be thinking, "What? How do you know? Your due date isn't even until next week!" Well, let me update those of you who may be thinking this. Last week, on Wednesday, we went to the doctor, hoping and praying that my body would be showing some progress towards having a baby. The doctor checked and informed us that the baby is still kinda high, and that I'm not 1 cm dilated, but I'm not 0 cm either. So she told us it was time to make a plan. Here's what she came up with. She said that if I am dilated 2-3 cm by this Wednesday, then she'll send me over to the hospital right then and start inducing me. But, if I'm not 2-3 cm then the following day, Thursday, she would do a c-section. She knew we were going to be on Fall Break and that we'd love to spend a couple of free extra days off with Ava so she said we could do it this week. She's going out of town on Fri...

January's Over.....What?!?

Where has the time gone? I can not believe January is just about over. Things have been crazy busy in our home, but still great nonetheless. Ava's getting so big! She's rolling over from back to belly and belly to back, she's playing with toys (her favorite is a monkey we named Milo), she's laughing and "talking" all the time; her personality is really starting to shine through. I can't believe our baby is going to be 4 months old in about a week. CRAZY! Other updates on our girl.....she's sleeping through the night, we were blessed that she started doing that at 6 weeks ( Babywise really helped with this!) She's getting rice cereal in two bottles a day during the week and she's also taking Prevacid . Both of these are because of her horrible reflux. They seem to be helping quite a bit. She spends the weekdays with our wonderful babysitter here at home and they love each other! In March she'll start going to daycare. I am a little nervous ...
