Recalls

FYI-I was reading "Parents" magazine this morning and there was a section on all the toys and baby/infant recalls, since its so big right now. Well you can subscribe to be on a emailing list at www.cpsc.gov. They'll send you emails on all the recent recalls, you can choose to have them send just the recalls on childrens toys and baby stuff. Just thought some of you would like to know!

Any day now....


I had another doctors appointment this morning...hopefully my last one! We did the stress test thing and the baby looked great. I was having a lot of consistant contractions and he came in sat down and look at the machine and said "are you in labor?" I said, "I dont know, am I?!" Then he said he'd check me and if I was a 4 he'd send me to the hospital...he's good at giving false hope. So after the test he checked me and I was only at a 1 1/2. A whole 1/2 more! yee. He didnt say how much more effaced I was but he said it was much "thinner." I'm just glad the baby is healthy and doing well. We are both so anxious to see our little guy and I'm sooo ready to end this pregnancy. So any day now we'll be parents! Hopefully sooner than later.
Oh this picture was taken today, 39 weeks.

The Countdown

Two weeks left if I'm lucky, three if I'm not. This picture I was 38 weeks, I had a doctors appt and I was dilated to a 1! Wahoo. 50% effaced. I have another appt tomorrow. I'm now 39 weeks and nothing too exciting has been happening. If I go over due he will induce me on Monday, February 4th. So it's nice to have a set date to look forward to. Tommorow he will check me again and do the stress test to see if any of mycontractions are causing any stress on the baby. I'll update then!

Stormy Cleveland

This tree has been dead for who knows how long, well during this recent windstorm it decided to take a fall, well half of it. In the middle of the night I heard a loud noise, but being pregnant and all...well sleep is more important to me than a tree falling down in our backyard apparently. Luckily we rent so it's not really our problem. Although, our landlord hasn't been to quick to get things cleaned up. It's been about a week and we still have a dead tree in our backyard on top of all our powerlines.















Isn't our backyard nice? Our neighbors like to save pretty much everything.

This one was taken from our window.

Christmas Break






While we were home for Christmas Break we had time to visit our families, go to Christmas parties, see friends, we celebrated my birthday and my sister's and mom threw a baby shower for me. We did so much stuff and still didn't get enough time for everything we wanted to. But it was still so much fun, and we really enjoyed seeing all our friends and family! Thanks for all the fun fam!



You never see scenery like this in Ohio!








While we were home we were able to take a trip up to Salt Lake to visit Grandpa Clark, and see the lights at temple square. We went with Emily, Doug, Julia, Spencer, Madisen McArthur and Adrienne (Matt's siblings, neices and nephews).












Me and Matt on my birthday! Yeeehaw.




Matt and Sawyer on Christmas.


Ella and Brynlee








Lexi, what a babe. She must get it from her aunt...the youngest, coolest one of course! Baby shower!









Matt's mom and sisters made me this adorable quilt for my baby bedding. It's super soft and so cute, I love it!!!

Me and the gang! My mom and all my sister's at my baby shower. Thanks for the fun baby shower and all the yummmmmy food guys!



Me and two of my sisters are pregnant (obviously) so we had to take a pic. We're in order, I'm due Jan 29, Mandy due Mar 3 and Susie due Mar 17 (or sometime around then, I keep forgetting with all the prego's I'm around).










On Christmas Eve Matt and I made a stinkin' cute little gingerbread house.












And Matt was SANTA this year! The secret is out.
Santa came in style. He circled around the backyard a few times and the kids loved it! They all had their faces pressed up against the window.





Santa Matt...that was a little weird to see my husband as Santa I must say.




And my girlies. Jess, Liz, me, Jamie, Dani and Andrea. We all got together and had lots of fun! I'm so glad I got to see all my friends.





This is the whole group that got together. Matt, me, Tyson McDaniel, Chris Burnah, Liz Lambourne, Jessica Gardner, Dani Olsen, Andrea & Spencer Larsen, Jamie & Matt Brunson. Lots of food and guitar hero!
