2/21/14
Well it is 2am on Friday 21, 2014 and 22 days before your
actual due date, however I am having a scheduled c section on March 10th. I have trouble sleeping right now, I woke up to a very strong contraction, I
thought this might be the day, however
it was a false alarm, once I got up they stopped, so I thought I would start
this Journal.
Me and your Dad decided together one more time to have a
baby girl (well your Dad needed a little persuasion, but not much ) so in June
of 2013 we started trying, and in July we found out we were going to have you,
I know…. not very much trying.
At about this same time we had decided to make a big move, we
decided to leave our lovely home of 9 years in Taylorsville and buy Grandpas
house up in Sandy. This move was sole
based on giving Jace and Trevor a better life, here they would be able to walk
to school, play out in the neighborhood with friends and, not to mention, one
of the best elementary schools in the State.
We decided one week and moved the next.
Because I was in my 1st trimester and felt really crummy, we
hired movers. This was a very hectic
time for me, I loved our old home, we had fixed it up so nice, it was my home. This new home in Sandy for a long time was
just filled with boxes and felt so cold and I felt sick all the time… it was
difficult for me. But the kids were
thriving already, which made me know right away that we had made the right move
for our family.
By the 2nd Trimester, things with me were much
better, we had started getting things in Sandy feeling more homey, the morning
sickness had gone away, and I felt great.
At 16 weeks I went to Fetal Fotos and found out we were having a baby
Girl Woot!!! Woot!!! I next ran and got
a cute little girl outfit put it in a box and wrapped it. That night Chris, Jace and Trevor unwrapped
it together to reveal the great news…
Everyone was ecstatic. Not long
after, we got your room painted with big pink chevron strips, and I made all your crib bedding by hand, in
preparation for your arrival.
By the last month of the 3rd Trimester is when I
started hurting, you are very low and it has made it quite painful to walk ( I
wouldn’t mind if you come today ) I
sleep from about 10 to 1am and then go down stairs, eat something, watch some
tv and go back to sleep on the coach, this has been the normal for the last
couple of months, but well worth it.
Your Dad has been such an angel, he is so caring and giving,
I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband… Every night as we sit down to watch tv he
rubs the aches out of my back, if we go somewhere, my seat heater is on before
I would ever think about it, he helps me anyway he can He is a fully engaged
and in tune father and husband. . Your Brothers are so excited for you to get
here, everyday Jace hugs my belly and says “I cant wait for our baby to get
here” , and Trevor is fully planning on being the diaper changer, he has been
practicing on a stuffed turtle, he spends time in your room packing the diaper
bag and organizing you outfits, LOL. You
are so lucky to be coming into this family.
We are getting the final little things ready for your
arrival this week, I have made a list of groceries to make lots of meals to
make and freeze this weekend. The
hospital stay bag is packed and ready to roll, and Bonnie and Nancy are
throwing me a baby shower this weekend, so exciting!!! We still have not decided on a name for you,
we have liked Summer and Taylor from early on, and now also really like Reese, and
have not decided on any middle names, we will see what happends.
