Baby update

So I had my scheduled OB check up last week and she wanted me to come back again this week because my blood pressure was a lil high. So I went back in today and it was still a lil high. Not dangerous high just high for my normal. Plus I've started to swell a lil bit and the fact that I gained 5 1/2 lbs in one week. WOW! (which could be water weight, since I am swelling) So my doctor wants to keep an eye on me, so I've got to go back this Friday and get checked out again to make sure I'm not developing pre-eclampsia (sp?) or something. The doctor didn't have a panic look on her face so I'm not going to try and worry about it.

Well I don't have to worry about Ava ever being naked. A friend of the family was kind enough to give me all her daughters clothes that she has out grown. And man did she have some clothes! They're all so cute and hardly worn. Lil girls clothes are so cute and fun to shop for. Look her closet is already starting to get full. And thats not even half of the clothes.
She's already like her mother...you can never have enough clothes!

Nursery!

So it looks like we finally have our nursery done. I might add a few things here and there but for the most part its done. The crib set that I liked in the store was way to expensive. So luckily I have a talented mother-n-law and she was able to make me a crib set. It was much cheaper and I was able to pick out exactly what I wanted. The theme is daisies and bees. Are you surprised there's daisies involved? Well you shouldn't be. If you can't tell the the room is painted a light yellow and the crib set it yellow and green.

So Ava and I had a lil talk...

So a couple people I know have had their babies unexpectedly premature. So I had to sit down and talk with Ava to make sure she knows that she's got some baking left to do and she can't come out until I say so. And I'm sure in about 8 weeks I'll be coaxing her out...lol.

Just a thought...

So I find it funny when people haven't seen you in awhile and they see you all big and pregnant and they say "ah you look really good". Do they really mean it or are they being nice because they know that a pregnant is likely to burst into tears at any given moment?

Prayers answered

As you all know my dad has been battling a liver disease and it has been a struggle to get him on the transplant list. Well we got some good news this week. As of yesterday dad is officially on the liver transplant list. He just has to stay stable and out of the hospital and hopefully we'll have a liver soon. The doctors say it looks like a two month waiting period. So now we're all patiently waiting for a baby and a liver! So keep us in your prayers.
