Yesterday, we went to the Dr. and drum roll please!!!!!!
His estimated weight is 6 lbs 8 ounces and the sonogram showed everything looks great kidneys, heart, head size.... She said that he was already in the down position!!! I was very excited to hear that.... His heart rate was 145 Dr. Alexis said that was good! Mom says that I was 6 lbs 10 ounces when I was born....
Next was the Group Strep B exam hurt like heck!! I don't care what anyone says that hurt... Then she checked my cervix again not a good feeling plus I about jumped off the table! I am dilated at a fingertip.... I was sooo hoping to be more but he is not ready I guess to come out! And then they realized they hadn't checked my BP okay not good after doing those exams!! It was 145/88 the highest I have ever seen!!
I will see her again on the 21st I am hoping to have dilated a little more than a fingertip! We have a full weekend ahead with graduations Saturday and the parties, Sunday more parties and I am judging Wesleyan Cheer/dance tryouts.... We are going to be busy let's just hope my BP doesn't go up!!
I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Sad news
I wasn't going to post this but I decided too..........
On April 30th at 7:36am I found our 3 year chocolate lab had passed away overnight... It was such a shock to find him. I went out to feed him and found him. He was not sick or poisoned. Like most dogs Bear would nibble on his food throughout the day and then at once eat the rest in a hurry. He had thrown up and choked on it.
Of course I had a dr appt. at 9:30am and Mark was already at the station..... Everything happens when Mark goes to the station.. Thanks to my mom who being a great mom took care of me took me to work and then to the Dr. where my bp was way high and was sent home to rest for the day.... Our next appt. is May 14th and I am excited we will have another sonogram, check his weight, check cervix and of course test for Strep Group B....
That is all the news I have for right now! I will update next week!!

Hi my name is Swollen!
Well I am 33 weeks and have 7 more weeks and I am ready! I am swollen from my fingers to my toes (They look like mini sausages).... Now it comes and goes as long as my feet are propped and I am drinking water. I have had all my showers now and I am so excited we got a lot of the items that we needed!
I went to the DR. last Thursday and it went very well except she had a nurse there that I have never been around trying to scare me about my blood pressure which was normal 136/80. Dr. Alexis told me right after that everything looked great and I don't need to worry.... She said that he was an active boy! I told her of course he was especially that time of the morning... I asked her how much does she think he weighs.. She told me that this was her guess that is he 4 lbs! She said bc right now during this period of weeks he should be 3 and half to 4 lbs. She said that I was doing good weight wise and that I am all baby! My next appt. is scheduled for April 30th at which I will be 34 weeks along!
On Saturday, April 18 I walked for Team Caleigh in the March of Dimes walk in Ft. Worth. It was a lot of fun and I did pay for it in the end with the swelling.... We didn't realize that it was a 5k. It made me appreciate life more and more and thank God that we have had a good pregnancy thus far. I know there will be pics posted from the walk very soon....
I know I need to post pics of the somewhat nursery! The crib is put together and the room is painted hopefully my wonderful hubby will finish it for me! Hoping key word there!
Hope all is well!!

9 weeks away!
I am now 31 weeks at the last week of 7 months! I can't believe that I will be entering my 8 months on Easter! Now I am in freak out mode!!
At last appt. the Dr. said that everything looks great and I am right on target.... Which is really good! I have already had 2 showers and they were amazing!!
On April 4th, we had a 4 D sonogram done... It was too cool! We got to see somewhat of his features he was being a little shy for the camera. So far he looks to be combo of both of us.. However, he has Mark's feet! I know Holly is excited! I will have to post those pics soon.

Swollen feet, lots of water and rest oh my!
Hello everyone!
I am now in my 2nd week of my 7th month and the feet are swollen! My toes look like sausages! I had a dr. appt on March 18th and I am happy to say I passed the Glucose test with flying colors I do not have diabetes! Thank goodness bc I did not want to drink that nasty stuff again!! His heart rate was at 155 which is good and he is right where he needs to be as far as weight. I had to ask my dr how much have I gained and she said 17 lbs it is all baby! She stated that I was doing good as far as my weight goes and continue with the walking... We also discussed pediatricians and registering at the hospital which was done yesterday! I also needed to schedule the 4d sonogram which I am still waiting to hear back from the office.
My next appt is April 2nd day after Mark's promotional exam for work. Trust me when I say I will be soooo happy when that exam is here and the studying will stop! He has been studying so hard and I am very proud of him. I hope he does well and passes and promotes depending on how everything turns out.
The nursery got painted (thank you mom, ma, pa and Rachel!) during Spring Break and the furniture arrived so we are right on time with everything! My boss has us given lots of boys clothes and they are sooo cute! I will have to post pics of the nursery once it is set up.
From Wednesday 3/18 to Sunday 3/22 my parents and I made a road trip to Branson, Missouri and then to Fairfield Bay, Arkansas. We had such a blast just hanging out and being a family. Mark was at home working exchange of time and studying.... I loved being able to drink coffee in the mornings with my daddy again it was great! Thank you momma and daddy for a great trip! Next time we go highway!
That is all I know for right now! I hope everyone had a great spring break or at least enjoying the weather!

Glucose test not the greatest!
Well folks I had the glucose tolerance test on last Friday...
Words cannot even describe the juice.. I can't even look at fruit punch ever again without thinking how nasty it was.... My lovely husband thought it would be funny when I got home and had gotten sick at work to offer me fruit punch...
Well today I should know the results I am hoping that the results come back negative and that I don't have to go back and do it again..
Spring break is next week and I am very excited! The university will be closed the entire week!! I will be heading out of town with my parents going to Branson, Missouri and to Arkansas! I have not been on vacation with them in a long time... I am sure it will be an adventure and it always is bc dad and I find something to give mom a hard time about!
My last 4 week appt is the 18th and we will be doing the every 2 week and then every 1 week! I have 91 more days to go!!
Well hope everyone has a great week!
