7 months!!

Well.... Im 7 months pregnant, 27 weeks and Im so ready to hold my baby girl!! I now have sciatic, which is also very painful :) The doctor told me since I was so small that I would be in a lot of pain the rest of my pregnancy.. GREAT!!! Oh well!! God is GOOD and I know my little princess will be worth every second of the pain I've gone through and will go through!!

Well we are FINALLY registered at Babies R Us!!! YAY.. It was a LONG evening but it is now completed and we only have Target left :) TJ registered for everything that said "Daddy's Little Girl" or "I Love my Daddy". It was so cute.. He also registered her a pink potty with her OWN toilet paper holder. I went thinking I was going to register for a Lime Green Stroller/Carseat, Playard, and ect BUT TJ said that his little girl wanted pink. So we registered for the Graco Stulus Travel System Stroller. It is pink and and has pink, baby blue, lime green, and blown polka dots. It is soo cute!!! After a while, my feet started to swell and myt back pains started. Guess I should have registered as soon as we found out that Hadleigh was a GIRL :) BUT you live and you learn :)
Anyways.. everything has been going well. No more kidney stones, but the back pain is still there. My feet started swelling Saturday at Michael and Toris wedding so I guess that should be fun.. I was 26 weeks on Monday and next Monday I will be in my 3rd trimester and 7 months pregnant. I am so ready for our little Princess to arrive. We are truley blessed and Im so thankful that God choose TJ and I to be Hadleigh's parents. I cannot wait to begin this journey. I know we will have our hard times but it will all be well worth it!! I thank God everyday for giving me TJ and the giving us Hadleigh :)
Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we anxiously wait for our little princess..
May EVERYONE have a BLESSED day!!

Mother's Day!!

Hope everyone had a Blessed Mother's Day.. I did! Knowing that my precious little princess is getting bigger in my belly made my day.. TJ worked which was soo not fair but I called him cring at about 6:30 because I had the worse Charley Horse and He tole me to go get some water, when I walked in the kitchen I found a BEAUTIFULLY wrapped present on the table with a bow and a card. I opened the card to find the sweetest note EVER.. I was bawling!!! I have been blessed with the BEST HUSBAND ever and I wouldnt trade what I have with the world. I went off to church, where my brother told me to close my eyes and he suprised me with a necklace and earrings for my 1st mothers day!! I am soo blessed!!!! After church we went to eat, went to visit the gravesite where my Beautiful, Greatly missed GRANKY is buried, then we went to look at laptops for my daddy, then to go get Hadleigh's curtains made, then to eat diner.. I had a wonderful day with my Mom (which is the best), dad, and papa!!!

Another Day at the Hospital

Friday morning I woke up cramping in my lower stomach.. I got up , took a shower and started off to work. The cramping got worse and then the back pain started. The pain got worse so I called the doctors office when they opened.. They told me to come in for a urine sample because they thought it was just a kidney infections. As I arrived to the doctors office the pain seemed to be getting worse.. I went in to give a sample which then had blood in it. I then started worrying, i was put in a room when the midwife and nurse comes in (rather fast) and asked me if I've had any bleeding. I said "no" and all i could think of is when we lost our first baby. I began praying and I could feel the steam coming off my face. She then told me to go straight to the hospital because I had kidney stones.. GREAT, I thought and as soon as she walked out of the room I lost it.. I drove over to the Birth care and was put straight in a room and hooked up to the monitors. Hadleigh was going crazy, which was good!! Later I found out that the kidney stones started contractions.. SO every few minutes, I was feeling them. I had a lot of company, which was great and then I also had friends farther away that called every hour..which was GREAT!!! Im so blessed to have a wonderful husband, family and friends. After I was released, I still was passing the stones which were very painful... Actually, Im still passing them!! My back pain hasnt subsided either, but the contractions have :) Thanks for all the prayers!! Hopefully the antibotics will help my kidneys so the back pain will stop and the rest of my pregnancy will go by smoother.. I cannot WAIT till Hadleigh is here :)
