What a crazy couple of days

Saturday, May 21: Sever weather was the main theme of the day.  This was the day of the tornadoes.  There were tornadoes spotted in Topeka then another line came through the Emporia area destroying the town of Reading.  We were in our basement for 2 and 1/2 hours and 1 and 1/2 of them were spent with the power out.  Luckily we had our flashlights and weather radio.  The radio informed us that there were funnel clouds spotted 4 miles away from our house.  So scary for sure!  Our power did not come back on till 7:00am Sunday morning.  At our house we had dime size hail and with all the rain the ditch in front of our house was flooded into the highway to the yellow line.  During all the excitement I thought my water had broke.  When the storms left we made the trip to Emporia through rain and possible tornadoes around the area.  Contractions started to get stronger as we went.  Made it to the hospital and my water had not broke.... just got the pee scared out of me :)  It was good we went in to get it checked though. 

Tuesday, May 24: More sever weather was in the area and my contractions were getting stronger and were only 6 minutes apart.  We made the choice to go ahead and head to Emporia just in case because there was a bad line of storms coming through with possible large hail and tornadoes.  We made it to the hospital and waited in the waiting room for 2 hours, our choice, to see if the contractions got stronger..... they did!  We were so excited!  We got checked in and we got hooked up showing that the contractions were strong and 6 to 5 minutes apart.  However, they were not making any movement in the south.  We walked for an hour... still no movement in the south.  So we went home. 

Wednesday, May 25: Doctors apt.  Little girl is doing very well and we found out that we have some complications that are keeping her from coming out on her own.  So we will be induced on Friday.  We are super excited to meet her and will be praying everything goes well!

39 weeks

It is hard to believe that I have been pregnant for 39 weeks.  There have been many ups and downs along the way for sure!  Right now I am in a funk of being really really depressed because I just want to meet her and really really happy because I know it could happen any day now.  We have another doctors apt. on Friday so we will see what he has to say.  The next three days there is sever thunderstorms in the forecast.... sounds like a perfect time to have a baby :)

Second Week in May

Who has two thumbs, a big belly and has been pregnant for 38 weeks….. this girl!  J 

End of April

So the end of April has come and gone.  I was not very motivated at the end of the month.  SORRY!

We have had two baby showers so far and we have defiantly been showered with gifts.  We feel very blessed to have wonderful family and co-workers. 

Our first shower was at the Stucky's household and it was a couples shower.  What a great idea!  It was wonderful seeing everyone. 

The second shower was at the Elementary School and everyone at school is super excited to meet our little lady.  Our little lady has more clothes than I do and she will be more fashionable than me too :)

Here is a picture for 36 Weeks. 

37 Weeks..... will we have her this week?

We have her room ready, we have our bags packed, we have the car seat in the car ready to go...... now we wait
