AUGUST!

It's august yay! Which means I will get to meet this crazy little princess inside me who is insistent on bruising my ribs and making me so uncomfortable! lol. I hope she comes soon! I have no signs tho lol. I go back to the dr on Monday and we will see if I have made any more progress but I highly doubt it. Today I have been trying to clean the house and get all of the laundry and everything done just in case she decides to come early. I am so anxious and impatient but not looking forward to the pain of labor lol.

This week has been kinda rough for my family. Our good family friend Jean has been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. She and her husband are both in wheelchairs and have been their whole lives with cerebral palsy so chemo is def going to take a told on her. They are both two of the strongest people I have ever known. I wish I could be home to just give her a hug. She is determined to fight this. She even wore a pair of pink boxing gloves to the dr :) I know God has a plan for her but it's going to be a tough battle and I just pray she beats it. My nana beat it twice so I know it is possible! Any prayers are greatly appreciated. :)

here are some pics to put a face to a name!

Dilated :D

So I went to the dr today expecting to still be closed up tight since I don't have any contractions or any signs of her coming but I am 1 cm dilated. YAY! The dr said my cervix is really thick still though but at least there is some progress. I saw a brand new dr today. It was his first day at the office but I liked him. He seemed nice but man it hurt when he checked me. OUCH. I was cramping for a while afterward but he said I would be.

I am going to start walking, walking, walking and try to be more progressed next appt which is Monday. I am also gonna bounce of my workout ball. They say it helps speed things up too. I hope she comes on her own before I would get induced but we will see.

Matthew is so excited and he says he is tired of waiting lol. It is so cute. I can't wait to see him as a daddy. He will be the best daddy! This week I think I will try to get everything all done just in case I progress fast, although I don't see that happening lol.

Just a quick update!

getting close.

Its hard to fathom that in just 3 1/2 weeks I will no longer just be me, but I will have a baby solely dependent on me and Matthew. WOAH. i cannot wait but it is kinda scary too. Matthew will be leaving for WLC when she is 2 weeks old so I believe I am going to go home to TN, which will be great to see everyone but also crazy bc obviously none of her stuff is there. But I will handle it more when the time comes. I go to the dr on Monday and I start getting checked for dialation. I doubt I have done anything but it would be nice if I had :D

I am so uncomfortable now. The pubic bone/pelvis pain is INSANE! I actually cried the other night bc I couldn't move. Oh man, I felt like a wimp but I am still determined to do this naturally. I know my body was made to handle it so it will be okay as long as it's not medically necessary for me to have meds. I hate even taking tylenol so I def don't want pain meds!

I have tried to do more walking this week and hopefully matthew will go walking with me tonight so I can start progressing! I have started making bows, and trying to learn to sew and I am exciting to see her in her little outfits with her bows!

Okay enough rambling, I have to get this house clean. AHHH overwhelming to think it has to be baby proof haha.

5 more weeks :D

So in 5 more weeks I should have my baby girl here! If she doesn't come on her own by Aug 18th then I should be induced that day so that Matt can have 2 full weeks with her before he goes to WLC for 3 weeks. Stupid army has to take him away but I know I will be okay. I am so anxious to get to meet this little one who has taken over my insides haha. I finally finished her room and got everything set up yesterday and its so cute :D

My mom and brother are visiting this week and its nice to have family around! We went shopping today and bought me a sewing machine and I'm gonna learn how to make Kynlee some outfits and blankets. woohoo. I am going to try to learn how to make bows too! yay! Tomorrow and Thursday we are going to tour D.C. and I think it's going to be fun! :)

At my next dr appt they start checking for dialation. its getting close. So exciting :D

Kynlee's Nursery so far.

its been a while

we have had a lot happen since i last wrote in here. We are all moved to VA and i personally don't like it but hey it's somewhere to live for the time being. Matt seems to like his job which is good and I do like my dr but having no friends really bites lol. I have already been home to TN twice (in april and then again in may) i was in a wedding and then my baby shower was in may. Also i am going home next week for my sisters wedding. its been a busy few months! I only have 10 1/2 weeks left till little Kynlee Grace is here. Time is flying but dragging too lol. I am now having dr appts every 2 weeks and things are going good. Im tired of gaining weight but if shes healthy i don't mind :D I thought i'd post some pics of her room and the latest ultrasound we had done.
29 weeks 2 days

ITS A GIRL!!

So we went on Wednesday to have our big ultrasound and she had her legs open the whole time and it's a girl! :D

The whole thing took about an hour bc she wouldn't cooperate and let the tech get her measurements but she finally did. And she's measuring right about on sched just a few days early so it's great! We couldn't get great pics bc she had her hands in front of her face the whole time lol. But we are so excited :D


The movers came yesterday so we have no furniture and we have tons of cleaning to do but we leave on Tuesday for VA. It's nuts and i'm nervous to not know anyone but I think it'll be great!
