STILL SIDEWAYS

Sigh. Baby Dill is still sideways:) We had a good Dr visit today. Baby is comfy as ever, chillin' sideways in my tummy. Not sure why he hasn't moved into head down position, but nothing to worry about, it could still happen. However, I think he's stubborn like his Daddy & is staying this way. So in 2 weeks we will have a scan/ultrasound done to see if he has moved, if not, it looks like a c-section will be in store for us!

Kind of have mixed feelings about this, but it's not up to me. I know recovery is longer with a c-section but at the same time, I don't want to do anything to put our baby or myself in any harm or distress. I wonder how Matt will do with the whole scrubbing in/being present for surgery?

We are getting excited for our little man to arrive! We just has an awesome shower in OKC hosted by my Aunt and are having another one this weekend hosted by my Sister-in-law. We'll have tons of stuff to wash and put away and arrange, and it is so much fun to do! There are still a couple of things Mom and Dad have to do before he arrives, so at this point, let's hope it isn't early!

SUCH A TREAT!!

Yay, hooray and big thanks to my Aunt Brenda for shipping us this awesome jogging stroller. Maybe some Dad's don't get excited about all the tiny onesies or cutsie-pie baby stuff.....but any Dad would get excited about this! Not only is it a jogging stroller, it has a plug-in for your ipod and speakers for wireless listening. It is super light & we had an awesome time pushing it around the kitchen and living room!

This weekend we are headed to OKC for a family baby shower and Easter of course! Pics are sure to come. Matt got a Sony Bloggie for his birthday so I am all about taking pics and videos with it. I hope he lets me use it!

More to come soon!

7 WEEKS TO GO!

7 weeks to go before baby gets here.....and that is if he stays in there all 40 weeks!! yikes:)

He must be getting bigger. I can feel him moving everywhere and I can feel every little movement. Which is great! Don't get me wrong, I love knowing he is super active, but a little more sleep would be nice.

There is still much to do! We are awaiting the arrival of some pieces of furniture to complete the nursery, I need to hang some curtains and of course the last 2 weekends of this month are my baby showers. It's gonna be a mad rush to put everything together before he gets here.

Monday night we took an infant care class at SJ Owasso. It was a really informative class & I felt like it was helpful. All the latest on feeding, burping, swaddling and diapering. How to care for the umbilical cord until it falls off and how to care for the circumcision. A pediatrician went over everything they do with a baby right after he is born, what the APGAR test is for, bilirubins, heat lamps, stork bites, dry sky, vernix, etc.... Matt got an A+ in the swaddling and diapering! He is going to be an amazing Dad!

Lots of stuff going on with this Momma too. A lot more dr visits to come, need to interview a pediatrician, losing control of emotions, hormones are crazy, lots of unmentionables you probably don't want to know....but I am excited more and more every day to meet our wonderful little creation. Just a hunch, but I have a feeling this little guy is going to be just like his Daddy (but with a giant amt of crazy uncontrollable dark hair)!!

Can't wait to meet him!
