40 weeks prego and 3 days to go!!!

Well, Today was supposed to be the big day but Brandt's still not ready to make his grand appearance!!! However, there is a plan in place and we are on go!!! Last time I wrote, the plan was to go in at midnight on the 30th, that has slightly changed. Thank goodness for my friend Kelly who is a labor/delivery nurse @ Centennial checking the schedule at the hospital last week to see if I had been put on the schedule for midnight. I hadn't and it was full!! Luckily there was still a 7pm spot available so I called Dr. Thornburg and she called to put me on the schedule for that time!!! I would not of been a happy girl had I had to wait through another weekend!!! ANXIOUS to see his sweet little face and count his fingers/toes-ha!!! The new plan is...... Go in at 7, start a low dose of Pitocin around 7:30, take a Ambien, hopefully sleep through the night, and get everything going early Friday morning!!! I was hoping that he would be here by the time everyone woke up on Friday but that's not gonna happen unless Brandt changes his mind before then!! Regardless we will finally be able to hold our baby boy on Friday-YAY!!! I have to keep reminding myself that I should enjoy the next few days of peace and quiet because I probably won't have that again for the next 18 years!!! So, thats what I am going to do.... That is after I get my house spotless-ha!!! Todd and I may even go see a movie tomorrow night which we have only done 1 time in our almost 5 years together!!! Let the Prayers begin and next time I blog, there will be pictures of our little man!!!!

39 week appointment!!!

Well, Today I went to Dr. Thornburg for my 39 week appointment and like I thought she would say, no change!!! Still dilated to 1 and 50% defaced this week instead of 30. She said his head is in the position that it is supposed to be in but he still needs to drop quite a bit. Wonder where this child gets his stubbornness from??? Ummmmm... Pick me!!! So, there's that!!! Basically I left there telling her that I would see her next week at my 40 week appointment!!! You might want to say a prayer for my dear husband because NO SLEEP plus being super ANXIOUS, not going over real well with me, not gonna lie-ha!!! If something changes,we'll let you know!!!!

Nursery Pictures

I think that I am finally figuring this whole blogging deal out, kinda!! These are just a few pictures of Brandt's nursery. It turned out way cuter than I could of ever imagined, no thanks to me!!! Brandt would like to THANK the following for his adorable room:

*BB (my mom) for the glider/rocker, valances, bedding, lamp shades, paint, chair rail, ceiling fan.... I'm sure i'm forgetting something!!!
*NeNe and Daddy Dunn for his furniture!!!
*Emily Nielsen for his adorable painting above his changing table!!!
*Jackie Parkerson for making his valances, bedding, and lamp shades..
*Pop Pop for putting his furniture together and Pooh for cooking an incredible dinner while Pop Pop was doing so!!! Now Food, that's important these days!!!

As you can tell, we(his daddy and I) are ready for his arrival as soon as he would like to grace us with his presence!! I go back to the doctor Monday for my 39th week appointment, I will update everyone then!!!

Mommys art's & craft to hang above his crib-maybe???

Still Waiting!!!

Okay, I have no clue how successful that I am going to be at this blogging adventure (considering I still don't have a MySpace or Facebook) but I'm going to at least give it a try... Mainly so everyone can stay up to date on our little man. Our little stubborn man that is.... We went to the doctor today for our 38 week appointment and all I can say is that the child is pretty cozy where he is at the moment. I think that I got my hopes up a little 2 weeks ago when I went and was dilated to 1. Well, we are still @ 1. Dr. Thornburg basically prepared us to go the full 40 weeks and possibly a few days after. If he decides not to bless us with his appearance before the 27th of July (his due date) then I will go in at midnight on the 30th and hopefully have him early afternoon on the 31st. So, thats where we are at right now!!! I actually still feel pretty good so I can't really complain but I am just super anxious to meet our little man, not near as anxious as his daddy though!!! We'll keep you updated and i'll post pictures of his super cute nursery as soon as I figure out how to do that!!! Yea, there's that!!!
