37 weeks

I'm about to start being a Debbie Downer!! Still nothing going on. I understand I still have 3 weeks but that is only 2 doctor visits. I would like for something to start going on!! I don't want her to come early I just don't want to be induced!! Dr. G said he would let me go a week over. So it's still just a waiting game!

Randy and I are ready for her, let's just hope she's ready for us!! Lol! I think she knows already that we are crazy! All her clothes are cleaned and put away. Our bags are packed, cameras are charged, and the house is as ready as it will ever be!



Her room is pretty much done, so pictures to come by next week for sure. I have 1 more thing to put on the wall. It is one of the things you stick on the wall. It has 105 pieces to stick up there. Randy told me I was on my own!
Here is my 37 week belly!! It is growing the most it has the whole time!!

36 week check up!

This week started the fun every week dr appt. The best part is getting checked. It is uncomfortable but kind of exciting.

Nothing was going on down there! Piper is head down and getting a little lower!

I have 4 weeks left or if you look at it by dr appointments 3! I can't believe the time is so close!! Randy is ready for her to get here! I love how excited he is getting. He can't wait an longer to meet his little girl!

Me- I'm getting nervous!! I am not that person who had everything done the week I found out it was a girl. So needless to say I still have a few things to get done. The most important is packing my bags!! *my second child may not have a decorated room!! Lol! Other than my bags I think most everything is done.
-her millions of clothes are washed
-all of her equipment is put together and ready to help her sleep! (fingers crossed)
-her parents are super ready and that's all that matters!

I have not had much weight gain anywhere except my belly. I'm not a belly picture person but I will post a weekly one until piper makes her appearance!! I will even be a trooper and try to post one before heading to the hospital!
*36 week belly picture! Zeus can't wait for his sister to get here!


I will be posting a secret phrase when we are headed to the hospital! So keep your eyes posted for something crazy!

Things people don't like to talk about!

After checking a friends blog I felt the need to blog myself. I was checking on this friend because she has a 3 yr old daughter, has lost 2 babies in the past 10 months, and now she is blessed to be pregnant again!! She is 18 weeks and feeling that sweet baby move! My heart is so happy for them because they are wonderful people. My heart is also sad because it brings up memories of my own loss.

We have about 6 weeks left until we welcome Piper into our family. I can only imagine it being the best day of my life, but in the back of my mind I will be grieving my other baby who should have been born just seconds before her. I want to know what that life would have been like. I would talk all the stress and sleepless nights just to have both my babies come in July 22.

No one talks about it because people think if you don't speak it, it will go away. For a mom it never goes away.

This friend is amazing and speaks of each of her miscarriages, joined a group to help herself and others. I truly feel she has helped me, even though I am not as vocal about my loss. Maybe one day I will be able to help someone like she has helped me. (even if it was just through her blogging)

A quote that really stood out to me:
"If I lost a leg, I would tell them, instead of a boy, no one would ever ask me if I was "over it". They would ask me how I was doing learning to walk without my leg. I was learning to walk and breath without Wade. And what I was learning is that it was never going to be the life I had before."- Elizabeth Edwards

I will continue to learn how to walk without my "other" leg!

34 weeks!

I was told today that I needed to post pictures of Pipers room!! It is not fully done but the main part of it is!



Her beautiful bed came from Baby Time and the bedding is from Etsy!!



Mom and Aunt KK working hard to help get her room ready!!



Dresser that will be full in no time! Lol!

Went to the Dr. Today for my 2 wk check up. No weight gain! I love hearing those words! Only 1 lbs gained this month! 2 weeks till the next one, then I begin my every week checks!!



Had to put a picture of my boy on here!! He loves me being off work, all he wants to do is cuddle and sleep!
*I have my blog on my phone (thanks to reading AK's blog) so now maybe I will post more!!
