Tiffany is here!

Just a quick post for now...Tiffany was born at 8:04 pm, she weighed 7 lbs 2 ozs. and is 19.25" long. It was a pretty tough day for Audrey so she's getting some sleep but i'm sure she will post pictures and tell the complete story tomorrow. All is well!

41 weeks...

I'm just posting for those that have been wondering if I had the baby yet and just haven't said anything...but NO, I'm still pregnant! I've been having a lot of contractions more during the night but obviously is never the real thing because I eventually fall asleep and wake up the next day the same! My days can pretty much be resumed in one word: miserable! But I'm holding on because I know Tiffany is still doing good. If nothing happens until tomorrow, I've scheduled to be induced Tuesday morning because I don't feel like I should keep going any longer! So here is what's going on so far...at least I know for sure there's only another day or two before this is all over and I'll have my little girl with me! It's not easy to go over, I really hadn't planned for her being so past her due date, so I feel pretty frustrated sometimes, but I've been having a lot of support from Bryan and from my mom, I definetly couldn't do it without either one of them, I'm so blessed to have them with me all the time caring for my needs!

40 weeks...and still counting!

I know everybody is tired of looking at my belly and we all want to see a picture of what's been inside this belly for the past 40 weeks...well...it won't be today! We looked at the blog counter thing on the right and saw the 0 weeks 0 days to go and now we're wondering if it's going to count -1 and so forth! I have been having some contractions throughout the day but nothing regular or progressively worse. And to make things better I'm not going to the doctor until Wednesday so hopefully everything will be ok until then! Because I knew she wasn't gonna come today I had Bryan take me out for lunch and for a drive...we went all the way to IF just to eat at Olive Garder since we won't be going there for a little while! But I just thought I would keep everybody updated...

Pictures

I've been wanting to take some more professional pictures for a while and this week I went to the hair salon to get some hair conditioning done and decided to get my hair done. I got home and called my brother who is turning into quite the photographer to take some pictures of us! Here are some of my favorites!! He did an excellent job. There's tons, so I'll try and put as many as I can!










And I'm still pregnant! I haven't even been having a lot of contractions or anything, but maybe things will change soon! I'll keep updating! 2 more days to go!

39 weeks!

So here are just the updates as of this week...I have been a lot slower and it's getting harder to move around, so I've been doing a lot of crochet with the burp cloths my mom made out of cloth diapers. It's been fun and very relaxing, but I'm almost done with those! I also went to the doctor again today and finally there was some progress! I'm dilated to a 2 and about 80% effaced! That doesn't really mean much since I could be like that for another week or two, but it's definetly a start! I'll try and keep the blog updated and see what happens! Isabelle got a little chair for herself! She's such an adorable little girl! Can't wait to have mine!
This is the most updated picture of my belly, I took it Sunday at my brother's B-Day party. We were wondering if Tiffany would come the same day of his birthday, but I don't really think she's coming before her due date...she seems pretty comfortable in there! In the picture is my sister-in-law, she's due next month, so this is probably our last picture with the big bellies...
So here is my question, does it really help to walk a lot during the last days? I hear that a lot, but I don't really know if it helps...did anybody try that or something else to speed things up?
Hopefully my next post will be with the good news...until then, happy contraction time to me!
Before I forget, I just wanted to thank everybody for their support and good wishes, I really appreciate all of you!
