Two weeks to go!

I'm having this baby sometime in the next two weeks, yay! Greyson's eviction date is still set for Dec 28th. Today at my check up I am 3 1/2cm dilated and 50% effaced having lots of pressure and am very uncomfortable. My dr guessed Greyson is around 7 1/2 lbs and if I make it to my induction she guesses he will be 8 1/2 lbs. I'm wishing a gigantic freak snow storm would hit and the drop in pressure would send me into labor now. I'm so ready to be done being pregnant and can't wait to hold my little guy. We are all packed and ready to go and the house is clean and organized. School is out for winter break on Friday so one more school pick up then I can be lazy and stay in my pj's all next week. I think that's about all I have to update about. I can't wait to post some cute baby pictures.

It's begining to look a lot like....

Christmas. The tree, stockings and decorations are up and the gifts are wrapped. I uploaded a picture of the stockings I made for all of us. We had felt stockings growing up and I loved them so I decided to make them for my family. This is the first year we have had a fake tree. I wasn't about to have a repeat of the allergies Graham and I had last year. This is also the first year we are having visitors for Christmas. Auntie Jeffra and Uncle Karl are coming to visit which we are super excited about!



35 weeks

We are so excited tomorrow is the end of week 35 which means only 4 weeks and a couple days until Greyson is here. We have his room all set up, the clothes are washed and we are packed for the hospital. The boys picked out his coming home out fit and are super excited to meet their baby brother.

I've been a huge slacker with the blog updates we've been crazy busy with school getting ready for the holidays and the arrival of baby Greyson. He is so cute its amazing how detailed ultrasound pictures are he looks so much like his brothers. We are both healthy and I'm hanging in there. As of my apt last week I was measuring 32 weeks so he is around 4lbs right now. I am counting down the weeks until he joins our family. My scheduled induction date is December 28th so that's just over 7 weeks away.

Baby #3 Pregnancy #6

I am already so in love with this tiny baby growing inside me and I cant wait to meet him/her! Baby has been measuring perfectly with a beautiful heart rate. I can finally pick up the baby's heart rate on my doppler I have at home. Baby is moving all around although I can't feel it yet I sure saw it on the 10week us and can tell when listening to the hb as it moves around with the baby. We are all so super excited Garrett says were having another brother and Graham says its a sister so we shall see. I'm just praying things continue to go smoothly and for the strength and faith to make it through the next 6 months. This two year battle with secondary infertility and loosing our 3 babies has taught me so much. It made me appreciate my boys and my easy time getting pregnant with them so much more. I also appreciate my loving, patient Husband so much! It was so hard to see him wanting to be able to fix our problems and my broken heart and knowing he couldn't. I have learned over the past two years that my life plan and God's plan for my life are so different. I figured since I had been through so much pain growing up that I would catch a break but that's not how Life works. Our Father in Heaven takes his strongest sons and daughters and man does he test us. Life isn't easy it wasn't meant to be. Our trials teach us something we need to learn and grow from. I am who I am now because of what I've been through . I know that until my father in heaven takes me from this mortal life and on to my next the trials will a keep on coming. I hope that I am prepared to meet those trials head on I know I can conquer them!
