Audrey's favorite past time

I was looking back over random pictures I've taken over the past few weeks and there seems to be a common theme.....sleep. Now I just wish she would do this at night :)

And now mommy is off to sleep!

Happy Birthday to Grandpa

I just wanted to take a moment out of my busy day of eating, sleeping and crying to wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope it's a great day for you. Thanks for coming to visit me when I was born. I hope I can see you again soon! Love, Audrey

Audrey's B-day

Audrey is here! She was born on Tuesday, May 4th at 1:18pm.

I went in to be induced at 5:30 am and she came pretty quickly once everything got started. Thank goodness for epidurals :) There was one 45 minute period where the contractions got pretty bad after my water broke. I asked for the epidural but it took a while to get everything together. Once the epidural kicked in I felt good and the rest of the labor went smoothly.

She weighed 7lbs 5oz and was 19 3/4 inches. She has a good amount of hair that is light brown. She has really light eye brows and eye lashes and a cute little pug nose that looks like D's baby pictures.

This post took a while because i am overwhelmed by the amount of pictures that were taken. I haven't even started looking at the video yet. My mom did a great job of capturing the journey for us. Here are a few from Audrey's first day of life...

Coming Soon!

We are going in Tuesday, May 4th to be induced! We can't wait to meet little Audrey and in the meantime we are trying to enjoy our last weekend with no kids. My family is coming in tomorrow and then we will go in at 5:30am Tuesday morning to get the ball rolling.

Here is hopefully my last preggo picture at 38 1/2 weeks.

Bedrest and Nursery Pictures

My life is pretty boring these days but that will change soon! I went in for my 37 week appointment and the Dr. ordered me to be on bedrest because of high blood pressure. So my last day of work was last Tuesday. A little earlier than I expected but I've had a good week of rest and now I'm ready to meet little Audrey. I'll go back to the Dr. tomorrow so we might have more of an update then. The bags are all packed and ready to go! Here are some pictures of the nursery.

Happy Anniversary D!

Today we are celebrating our 3rd year of marriage. Happy Anniversary D!!!

29 Day Countdown

So this pregnancy thing is kind of all consuming lately. I have about 29 days left to go and some days I am wishing it would happen tomorrow and other days I'm thinking that I need the full 29 days to get ready.

We went to the Dr. yesterday and got to see little Audrey. They are saying that she is right on track size wise and is head down and ready to come anytime now. Here's her profile shot...
She is about the size of a honeydew melon...

It's been alot of fun celebrating with all my sweet friends. Here is the Tech contingent at one of my baby showers.

And here's a picture of the crib set up. Maybe after this weekend we will have more pictures of the nursery but we are still waiting for the dresser to get here so it's a work in progress.

And here's a picture of the dad to be. He came up to my work for a baby shower last week and I thought this picture was so funny. He doesn't know what to do with all the pink stuff that is invading our home. I can't wait to see him as a dad for the first time. I know he is going to be a great one.
