Baby Update! (Long post)

Well this pregnancy has continued on and has been pretty good for the most part. I still get heartburn about every night and sleeping seems to get harder and harder. But i keep telling myself it will all be worth it! :) I can't even wait. I am approaching 37 weeks quickly and it is seeming more and more real everyday. I had an ultrasound on Tues. April 12th because they had been keeping and eye on my placenta. During my pregnancy i have had partial previa and they have continually been checking me to see if it would move away from the cervix. So at this ultrasound we found out that i was going to have a c-section because the placenta was definitely blocking the path of the baby. I was pretty sad at this point and very disappointed that i couldn't have a normal birth. Then the doctor said that he just wanted to be sure and that we would have another ultrasound in a week. So that whole week i emotional prepared myself for a c-section, and when i went in Mon. April 18th the doctor said that he would do the ultrasound because he could check a little better than the other ultrasound tech. So he did a very thorough job and he ended up finding out that my placenta wasn't in the way and that i will be able to have a normal birth. I am so happy and so thankful.It is truly and answer to my prayers! :) So now it is just a waiting game. Hopefully Leah will be coming soon! Here are just a few pictures of Leah's room, shower pictures and recent pictures of Mike and I.

I also had another baby shower here in Cedar that my wonderful friend Leah threw for me. April 20th 2011. It was a lot of fun! Here are a few pictures of her changing table and closet after all the showers!


I really wanted to get maternity pictures sometime during my pregnancy and i had debated when would be a good time. My sister said the sooner the better so you don't get too uncomfortable. So i asked my friend Alyssa Morris if she would take some for me. She agreed and so we made a quick trip to St. George.I love the pictures and think they turned out great. Thank you!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! :)

So i usually don't make Mike breakfast, so when i was waking him up at 6:45 telling him to come eat breakfast i thought he may tell me to go back to bed and quit joking with him. But instead he sat there for a second and said, "why did you make me breakfast". I told him it was St. Patrick's day and that we needed to celebrate with a green breakfast. (This was a tradition at my house growing up.)He said ok and sure enough he got right out of bed and headed into the kitchen. Breakfast is one of Mike's most favorite things so he was all up for enjoying it. After he ate he said that he wished i would make breakfast every morning. I guess i need to be better at making breakfast! :) Here are a few pictures of our meal!


Green Milk and Mountain Pancakes!
