Welcome Baby Elliott!
We were due to check into the hospital to be induced on Tuesday at 6pm. My mom drove up from Oklahoma that day and we spent the day together. Paul got off of work at 4pm and we finished packing the car and went to our last dinner out with my mom.
When we got to the hospital, they informed me that it was probably going to be a wait. All of the rooms were full, and since I was an induction, people...
I am checking into the hospital Tuesday at 6pm to be induced, unless Elliott decides she wants to meet us sooner. They are going to ripen my cervix Tuesday night and, if needed, start Pitocin Wednesday morning. So she will probably be born on St. Patrick’s Day.
As of right now, I’m not nervous at all. I’m not sure how I’ll feel when I get there, but I’m ready to get...
My baby is due today!
But so far it seems that she has no intention of coming out. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow at 930am, and I’m guessing (not to mention hoping and praying) that we pick an induction (eviction) date.
It still feels like it’s not going to ever happen. I’ve had all of this baby stuff in my house for months that it feels like will never be used. It still feels that way.
My...

I thought my water broke yesterday. I was at work and felt a gush. A small gush, but a gush. I called my doctor’s office and they said to go up to the hospital and they could test to see if it was amniotic fluid. So I called Paul and he came home to get me. We packed the car and off to the hospital we go. In the mean time, Paul calls everyone in his cell phone to tell them that we are going...

It’s been a long time since I wrote on this thing because we don’t have a working computer at home. Boo!
I’m still pregnant for about 5 more weeks or so. Our baby is a girl and her name will be Elliott Addison. Being pregnant has been pretty weird. Everything has gone very smooth, but it’s still weird to have a human inside of me. I’m at a point right now where you...

Matt came home last night after being gone for the summer. When he came in, the pugs were SO excited! I have never seen them act like that before! He’s moving out today. I have to say that I’ll kind of miss him. He always watches ridiculous reality television with me. However, I’ll be glad that Elliott will have a place of his/her own.
Paul has a friend who also has a pregnant...
OB round 1
I had my first OB appointment today. And I have to say that I really like my doctor. I’m so glad that I do, because that was something I was very concerned about.
She came in and met us. Answered all of my questions and was very patient with me. Due date is March 9th, although I’m still hoping for the 11th. She told us that it was still to early to hear a heartbeat, but we would get...

It's 2 in the A.M.
I woke up not feeling very good. Decided to eat some leftover pizza and, surprisingly, I feel a lot better!
We went to a coworkers wedding this afternoon. I was asked to help set up the reception, and I agreed. However, it was very unclear as far as directions go. She had talked about me driving her truck to the reception, which is fine, but she was off of work after Monday and never got into...
I’m not the kind of person who can get up in the middle of the night to pee and fall peacefully back to sleep afterwards. That is why I have been up this week at 5am, 5am, and now 2am. Gah!
A lot of people have an opinion about what kind of “parts” they want my baby to have. Which I think is very weird, because I couldn’t care one way or another, I just want it to be...

So, I’m pregnant! I really had no idea that it would happen so fast! Paul’s sister has been trying to get pregnant for like 7 years and then we get it right the first try! I’m blown away!
I texted my mom a picture of the test. She called immediately with tears of joy. I called and told my grandmother that she was expecting her first great grandchild and she was thrilled. She...
So I got bit by a cat this morning. Really, that is an understatement. My fingers started to swell immediately. I went to immediate care and now I’m home with two anitbiotics and some Tylenol. Here are some pics of the awfulness.
My fingers look like sausages!
My fingers hurt so bad!
It's offical.
So, we’re trying to make a baby. That’s right, Paul and I are having unprotected sex. Which is kind of weird to tell people. Maybe that is why I haven’t told very many people. I’m socially awkward enough without having to tell people about how I have my sex!
I’m very excited though.
It’s kind of funny. When you are a teenager, you’re told that you can...
