Congrats, Casey!!

We have been waiting for this day for a long time!! Casey graduated today with his master's in Healthcare Administration. He has worked so hard for this and we know God has great plans for our future. We now start another adventure in our lives of not knowing what will be next. We are moving soon to Duncan but who knows after that! I am so sad I was not able to go to his graduation, but he knows I was thinking about him. I will post pics soon since I really don't have much else to do.


No news on the baby girl...things are still the same-still having stronger contractions but no changes.

A very LONG few days but very thankful

I woke up this past Sunday morning with painful contractions. I really wasn't thinking much of it and just stayed home and rested. I had decided to go to work Monday morning and call my OB from work. I called and they told me I needed to come to the hospital right away. We get checked into the hospital and it turns out I was in preterm labor with 2-3 minute contractions and dialated to a 2 which I should not have been dialated at 33 weeks. I went through several painful medications to slow down the labor but nothing was working. On Tuesday morning my OB came in my room and told us we needed to make a choice to stay at St. Anthony or go to Mercy where there is a great NICU because they thought I was going to have this baby girl that day! So we decided to go to Mercy. I got off of all the medication and the contractions started to get worse but Lord willing nothing else happened. To make a long story short we have finally come back home last night. I'm back with my regular OB at St. Anthony and saw him this morning. He has put me on bedrest and is really not sure when our little girl will decide to come. We are just thankful for each day she stays in the oven longer! Keep us in your prayers and come visit me at home!!

Counting the days...

13 more days of school
51 more days until baby...maybe sooner! My Dr. says I am measuring ahead.

April 30, 2005

I know I am late but things have been busy! Happy Anniversary to the best husband in the world. I thank God all the time for putting Casey in my life. We went out to a nice dinner last week and then went to the Beauty and Beast show last weekend in Guthrie. We are enjoying our time together as just the two of us because we know soon our lives will change forever but we couldn't be more excited. I love you, Casey!

77 Days

I get a weekly update of my pregnancy and I just noticed it says how many days you have until your due date. I could not believe it said 77 days!! I am so excited and cannot wait for the day she will be here. I will post a 29 week belly pic soon. Have a good week.

All I wanted was Ice Cream!

To end my day yesterday I had to have some peanut butter cup ice cream. Casey and I went out and got some. I came home and started scooping some out and Casey reaches behind me to get a glass. The glass slips out of his hand and shatters EVERYWHERE!!!! It got in my ice cream bowl and in the tub of ice cream. I guess I didn't need ice cream after all. I survived with yogurt...but I'm hoping Casey will surprise me tonight with some more ice cream. :)

What a week

It has been so busy for us! Last week I took my glucose test and passed it! I drank the stuff then the nurse tried to get her heartbeat and she would not stop moving. My Dr. tried to do an ultrasound but he couldn't even do that! She was on a huge sugar high I guess. Even when she's not on a sugar high she is just moving and kicking! This past weekend we went to a breast feeding class that was very informative and I'm glad we went. Today I went to the dermatologist to have a spot on my back removed. While I was taking my shirt off and putting the gown on the nurse noticed my mole on my belly button. I have had this for a while but since my belly is expanding the mole looks really weird. So, not only did I get shots to numb my back, a spot dug out of my back, and stitches I also had to get my very sensitive belly numbed and scraped too! I was not excited about the whole thing but we will find out Monday the results. We're hoping everything is ok. The one good thing out of this is that I have had the whole day off of work. I was needing a break! Well, I'm off to take a nap. Enjoy the warm weather! I love it :)
