39 week update & pic

Well, this is the final post before the arrival of our little girl! I went to the doctor this afternoon and Madison has dropped even lower which is really good. My stomach went down 3cm since last week. John and I talked with our doctor about inducing and she seemed to think there is no problem with it. She gave us the choice between tonight and Sunday night. John is so eager that he talked me into tonight!! It looks like we will be heading to the hospital at 9 to start the induction process. Madison should arrive sometime tomorrow. I'm so excited and nervous. It all seems so unreal! I can't believe I'll be a mom tomorrow! Check back for a picture of our little girl later this week!

Here is a final pregnancy picture of me!

38 week update & pic

Nothing new to report this week. I'm still only 1cm dilated.

14 days to go! :)

37 week update & pic

Yes, it's hard to believe that we are down to 3 weeks! Woohoo!!

It looks like I'm only 1cm dilated so far. Madison is really low and in the head down position still. My doctor did say that after feeling my stomach that she thinks she will be long! :) I'm so excited and can't wait to hold her!!! 21 days to go!

36 week update & pic

My doctor appointment went well this morning. Everything is still looking good. I've started dilating very little. I guess she's not in a hurry to come out! :) Here's a pic taken today!

35 week update

My appointment went well this morning. Madison's heart rate was 150bpm and I gained 2 more pounds!! My doctor checked me for any progress thus far and there was none! It's still early so I'm okay with that. I'm already anxious for next Monday to see if anything has changed.

I was a little sad to find out that I'm not able to fly or drive outside Houston anymore. My doctor said it's just too close and you never know what could happen. I had to cancel my flight for Tuesday night to New Orleans. I was scheduled to fly over and help John pack up because YES, he's FINALLY moving home Thursday night. It's still hard to believe. It looks like he will be home for the delivery! YAHOO!

I don't have a picture to post this week but will make sure to have one for next Monday! :) Trust me, I'm getting BIG!

Final peek!

I had the last peek of our little girl this morning. Well, maybe I should say BIG GIRL! Based off her measurements, they think Madison weighs about 5.6lbs right now!! They said everything looked great. Her heart rate was 149bpm and she is above average in all her measurements. They actually show me due on the 14th now. I guess we will just wait and see when she wants to come! I'm so excited and in love already!

Here's a few pics from this morning. They are kind of hard to see but I thought I'd still share. She was very active this morning and wouldn't stay in one position long enough to get a good pic.

Baby Shower

Saturday, 3 of my closest friends hosted an amazing baby shower for Madison and I. It was absolutely perfect and we had such a great time. They really went above and beyond! Thanks so much girls for all that you did to make it a special day!

The 3 hostesses!

This cute cake matched the invitations!

Kristi made this awesome diaper cake!

Lindsay's mom made this amazing wreath

Aprons

Madison has an adorable matching apron to wear with her grandma in Center! I'm glad she'll have someone else to learn cooking from rather than me! :) Her great grandmother made these precious aprons for the two of them!
