38 weeks and 4 days pregnant

Patiently Waiting

Well I went to the Doctors office Wed. She said i was dilated 1 cm. Well of course I was begging that this was enough to just take her. My doctor just laughed and said that if my contractions get 3-5 min apart or if my water broke to go straight in and she would go ahead and take her. If not she would see me Wed. July 1. in the O.R. Well I wasnt laughing.
Last night I started with some contractions. YAY right ? No , it was pain for NOTHING ! They were 12 min apart then dropped off.
Well I am looking forward to meeting this little girl, I know no matter when she gets here its gonna be one of the most emotional days of our lives. Just to hear that sweet cry, Is worth the wait.
On another note... My step-sister is coming in from Texas on Monday. ( Julie, You better be !! :). My dear friend Amy is also expecting any day. I cant wait to see her precious bundle ! She is another CDH mom whos daughter Faith and My son Drake are best of friends in heaven watching out for there new sisters on the way. Amy... I know our babys will be friends no matter the distance as we are.
I still havent picked up the pics from the shower from my friend. I will try and do that this weekend and post them.
Thanks for listening to me rant.

Stork

A BIG THANK YOU to Kori for letting us use this stork and a BIG THANK YOU to Ms Jernell and Denise who bought the bundles for before and after Celia comes. They are the sweetest ladies that I have met in a long time. I cant say enough how much we appreciate everything they have done for us when Drake was in the hospital and now with Celia on the way , They have done so much already. I have to say that they are a blessing from above.
Ms Jernell, Denise, and Kori We still cant say it enough .... THANK YOU !

Celias Nursery

Sorry it has taken me so long to get the pics up of Celias nursery. We finally finished the room and then we took pics. Burt and I couldnt be more pleased with how it all came together. I just want to say thanks again to my wonderful husband for doing all the hard work.
We had our baby shower on May 30. It was great , I will post pics and tell you all about it next post.
At our last U/S Celia was weighing approx. 7 lbs and 4 ozs. Yes she is gonna be a big baby ....Thank GOD for C-sections ;) My amniotic fluid was a little low so I am getting weekly U/S to keep tabs on it. Besides that everything is going great.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

I just wanted to say Happy Mothers Day !
Today was bittersweet. A day I find myself not wanting to "celebrate". I have a wonderful 14 year old son here on earth, A beautiful baby girl on the way, and an angel in heaven. When I think of today its just mixed emotions. I will always have this empty feeling inside. The question I most hated today was "how many children do you have" I always say 2 and one on the way. If they keep asking then I have to go into detail.Thats when it gets tough on days like today.


The Busiest Day In Heaven

It's the busiest day in Heaven
I'm planning a big surprise
To let you know I love you
And that no one ever dies

Even though your down below
And I am up above
I'm sending you my wishes
And all my angel love

It's really quite exciting
To plan this big event
For lots of gifts will come your way
And all are Heaven sent

First I'll take a bubble bath-
My splashes might cause some rain
But knowing all the fun I'm having
Will help to ease your pain

Next I'll get some pictures
In my halo and gown
So when you get to Heaven
You can show me all around

I have color crayons in Heaven
And I will draw some stars so bright
And place them in the sky today
For you to see tonight

Then Jesus will have story time
And I will sit upon his lap
He'll tell me all about you
Just before I nap

I'll awake full of energy
And play a game or two
Before I finish sending
All my love to you

After snack I'll write a song
For all the birds to sing
And know I've made you happy
With all the joy it brings

At night time I'll be tired
But I'll still hold you tight
My arms will wrap around you
And keep you through the night

And when you finally slumber
I will kneel and pray
Asking God to bless you
On this special Mothers Day

Love,
Your Little Angel
