31 week ultrasound

Foot

Face

Today we had another ultrasound. This will now be a weekly occurrence which is fine by me. We didn't get that great of pictures today. She wouldn't move her hand so we could get a good profile shot. They didn't check her weight and percentile today. I am very curious on the weight though. The ultrasound was a bio physical test which means Lanie has 30 minutes to do certain movements and breathing to pass the test. She passed within the first 10 minutes (she is very active). I was so relieved. When our doctor was listening to the heart beat Lanie had the hiccups. It was so funny cause they were loud. I couldn't help but crack up. 7 weeks from today Lanie will be joining our family. Can't wait!!!!

31 weeks pregnant

Here I am at 31 weeks pregnant. I am glad I took these pics as I am a lot bigger than I thought. My tummy just seems to be growing straight out. Lanie is very active moving around in my tummy. It has been really neat to feel her move from one side to the other. Sometimes my stomach is lopsided due to her laying on one side. Just this past week I have noticed her getting the hiccups which is such a strange yet amazing feeling. A week ago today we attended our childbirth class at the hospital. We learned all about the different stages of labor and medication options. The class was very enlightening. I learned some breathing skills to help cope with labor. I also preadmitted to the hospital this past week. So now all I have to do it show up and I am ready to have this baby hopefully not any time before May 19th. I am starting weekly appointments and ultrasounds with my OB. I love that I get to see Lanie every week now. Just think 7 weeks 3 days Lanie will be here!!!

Winter Wonderland (in March)

Well mark your calendars for March 28, 2009 as the biggest snow storm in March I (and am sure several others) have ever seen. The weather forecast was 2-6 inches of snow for Tulsa which I figured we would get more towards the 2 inch mark. We however have 8-9 inches of snow on the ground. I have enjoyed being snowed in, but I didn't have anywhere I needed or wanted to go. Bart and I have had a successful day of cleaning and working a bit on the nursery for the house to be presentable for company next weekend for our baby shower. I can't wait to see my family which we haven't seen since Christmas. I know that it will be an enjoyable weekend. O and my husband turns 28 this next week. For 2 months out of the year he is a year older than me!!!

Lanie's bedding

Here are some recent pics of the nursery. Lanie's bedding has came in and we added curtains. These pics are mainly for the grandmothers because I have been slacking on getting pictures up. I do love the bedding and it matches the walls perfectly. I am so ready for Lanie to get here to enjoy her room.

28 week ultrasound

Today we had our 28 week appointment. Everything looked great. Lanie weighs 2 lbs. 10oz. She is in the 44%. My doctor thinks she is a happy baby and measures just fine. I love her side profile pictures so much. On the first picture above she is puckering her lips out. She's already wanting to give me lots of kisses. She is a very active baby. She kicks all the time. I am starting to wonder when and if she sleeps. I can't believe she will be here in 10 weeks. I also can't believe I am in my 3rd trimester. This pregnancy is flying by. It has been so fun because a lot of my friends are pregnant right now so we have been able to share our experiences together. I am counting down the days till May 19th!!!!! Lanie we can't wait to meet you.

27 week belly

Here is my belly at 27 weeks. I feel like I am even bigger now then when I took these pics this past weekend. Not sure if the striped shirt hurts or helps my cause. I am still feeling pretty good which is such a relief. I can't believe that Lanie will be here in 10 1/2 weeks!!!!
