Due Date...But

Thats right. Today is the due date for our little girl to be born. However, after all day of waiting, she is still not here, and I am not surprised at all. But, someone told me yesterday that they read our blog everyday, and want to see pictures. And let me tell you, I was shocked! I honestly didnt really think we had people that read our blog, especially because I am so bad at keeping up with it. But it made me feel good that someone cares enough about our lives, to check to see if I update. So THANK YOU, (you know who you are ) Because I feel so loved! And I promise to post some pictures! I will have tons of pictures in just a few days when they baby comes, but Ill add one now, just because I said I would.

Here are my two boys! Kimbo just loves Zack and its the last picture I have taken. These two are my world right now, and Zack just has so much love to give. Kimbo is going to learn how to share his daddy because there is a princess coming to town! I just love these two, and they make my life so sweet :)

A few weeks ago, Zack decided to dress up just as his dad would. It was so cute that he looks up to him so much that he wanted to be just like him :)

And here is the baby room. I took this the day that I put up the crib. SO far this is all I have done. That is the bedding with the crib and changer. I am going to put up her name above the crib once we decide on one. And I cant be more excited.

Here is also an update with the pregnancy. So I am officially 40 weeks pregnant and when I was 38 and 2 days I went to the doctor. I was still high, thick, closed, and not dilating. And so I knew it was going to be a little while. At 39 and 2 days, I went back. I was still, high, closed, and not dilating. However, she did say that I was a LITTLE thinner than last time. WOOHOO! But thats really nothing. I have a doctor appt. on tuesday and she will check me one more time. She said we will schedule the induction because she wants to get the baby out around 41 weeks. So she told me she was thinking Thursday, December 1st. I am honestly expecting that this baby is going to have to get forced out of me. My tummy must be really comfortable.

Me and Zack are also getting super anxious, scared, nervous, and excited at the same time. We are so happy to meet her, but sometimes we think about how scary and hard it is going to be. I have been so emotional about it because I just want to be a good mom! I know Zack is going to spoil her and be the best father in the world. And so part of me wants her to stay in there forever, so I cant mess up. But then she will kick me and I remember how I dont get any sleep at night. And I also look down at my feet and they have like 10 lbs of water in each leg. And then Im like, alright, your time is up, GET OUT!

So that is the story with the baby. She could be here any day, but if not, looks like this weekend will be her last. Its not so bad, because I have school and so does Zack. It would be nice to get a little bit more done.

My mom is also flying out on Thursday. Which will be kind of nice because I could be getting induced the same day! But its going to be very nice to have her here to help and give me some advice. I am looking forward to it.

Thank you everyone who has been praying for us and caring enough to look at our blog.

We love you! 

Only a few weeks left!

When I say that, I mean we have a few events coming up in a few weeks, and I know I need to update what has happened the past month!

October flew by so fast, and I have been busy in school trying to stay good with my grades just in case the baby decided to come earlier then expected. So far no baby and I am not sure when she is going to come out. I am getting really anxious and VERY uncomfortable. I have been having a hard time sleeping and I just am ready to be done. I am 37 weeks and just wish that she would be a surprising entrance NOW.  To update with her kidneys, at my 34 week appt with the high risk specialist, the left kidney is stable. It has been since 28 weeks. It is at a 9mm and I just keep hoping it would go away. She also was a whopping 6 lbs 1 oz already, and that is huge! She used to be smaller for her age, and now she apparently had a huge growth spurt and so that is probably why I have been super uncomfortable. My next appt at my regular doctor and high risk doctor is on tuesday, and I am hoping for good news for both. This will be my last high risk appt before the delivery, and so if the kidney is still dilated, then after she is born, she will need an ultrasound and worst case need a surgery to correct it. I really hope it fixes it self now to the time she is born, because I dont know how I could handle surgery already!!  But we are just ready for her to get here, and have only a few more things we need to get before she gets here. Other then that, we are ready to go. Me and Zack just cant believe the time is finally coming. A few months ago, we were talking about how much time we have until she gets here, and now its like she could come anytime!

School is also going great but we are both ready to be done. Online school this semester has really kicked my butt, and I just keep reminding myself that it is almost over, and then only one more semester like this and Ill be done. It will be a little different having to take care of the baby at the same time, but Zack is super helpful and supportive, I know it can be done.

Zack is also almost done with the semester. He gets a break for Thanksgiving which is going to be very nice since it is when the baby could come and I am glad he will be able to be around just in case. And then he is done in December until later in January, and he I am sure will just be working hard to take care of us.

I am so grateful to have a husband like him who values the importance of working hard for what you want. Working for each dollar, and putting in 100% effort and I am so lucky to be able to call him my husband!

I would also post pictures of myself, but I have been really.......big lately, and feeling like it, and so I refuse to even take a picture. So I will have to get the courage to do so, and Ill post a pic maybe this week :).. maybe
