Since I last updated I’ve finished working, had the flu, had a Dr appointment, and my parents have arrived. I planned on Friday, May 1st being my last day of work. I’d have a couple days off before my parents arrived on Tuesday evening. However, Wednesday the 29 ended up being my last day due to the fact that I came down with a pretty nasty stomach flu. I woke up at 3 am and kept throwing up every two hours until 9am (that’s four times!) when we called the Dr. Since I had a low fever, they had me come in to check. Everything was fine, just the usual stomach flu (not the swine flu). They gave us some medicine to stop the naseaua which helped a ton. I pretty much slept for the next two days. Here is the most recent pic. I’m feeling pretty large and can’t really find anything comfortable to wear anymore.

We had a Dr. appointment on Tuesday and things are moving along. I’m dialated to a “solid 1″ as my Dr. said. She seemed to think that I would have her right around my due date and not to worry about my parents missing it. We are getting so excited for her to come out into the world and meet us. I’m getting more and more uncomfortable, but trying to be patient for her to come when she’s ready. It wouldn’t be such a big deal if my parents were not here for the birth and could only stay until the 18th. At this point Mom and I got pedi’s, did some baby shopping, and we’ve all gone out to Chevy’s (my family’s favorite) so we have nothing left to do but wait for her to come. Sometimes I feel like she is never gonna come, the whole thing is pretty sureal. Anyway, I’m enjoying the time with my parents and loving having them here. My Mom finished the rag quilt and I love it! I’m so excited with how it turned out and really excited that she got it finished. She brought and bought a few other things as well, so that’s fun. =) Thanks Mom!!

Hopefully, next time I post will be with a photo of our little lady.

Hi Mo… thanks for the update… i know it may seem like an eternity when you’re waiting… and you’re prob. feeling super big.. PTL that you don’t have to go thru the whole summer being big (i had to with Hannah since she was born in Sept.) The Lord’s timing is best.. i hope and pray that you’re experiencing His grace which is sufficient for us.
Love the quilt that your Mom made.. please say hi to her for us!! We’re praying for you & the baby!!!
