Just an update!


The best thing going on around here is that we are all finally on the road to wellness. We have all been sick with something for the last 2 1/2 weeks! It really took its tole. Our Dr. should get a nice summer vacation out of all our visits. He is a great Dr. though!

My youngest sister, Elizabeth has her endowments and wedding coming up soon, and I couldn't be more excited! We are also heading into birthday season in our big family. Danny just had his yesterday, April 25, and baby Jack will be here on Thursday May 1st. Then, we move onto Grandfather with his B'day on May 30th. Then, it's onto, Isaak, Holdyn, Lacy, Krager, Kallie, Evie, Jennie, and Mom. So April through Sept. is fully of Birthdays for us. Oh, Bliss' in Sept. as well. It should be a really fun birthday season since Mom and Dad have their pool in now! I'm looking forward to it.

Now, as for this week, I am counting down my last few days before we have Jack here with us. Thursday morning is the day and I'm too excited. I'm sure he will hold out til then since the Dr. says I am not progressing on my own. Just barely getting started. So it looks like all the plans I made won't get messed up. As soon as I am able I will have updates and pictures on here. But, I can't make promises of when exactly. I hope everyone is well and enjoying the warm weather. Allergies will hopefully be getting better soon, and the summer will roll in nicely. Everyone have a great day!

It will end!

On Friday at my Dr. appointment we scheduled a c-section for May 1st! The little guy is still very much breech and measuring 7lbs 8oz. I know Dr. can be wrong, but for my babies at this stage, that sounds about right. And if you could all see my belly you would probably agree. The fatigue is getting to the point where I'm afraid I'm going to slip into a coma. I'm mostly just sleeping when I can. I can't sleep eight hours straight since I can't stay comfortable that long. More than any of that stuff, though, I am just excited to meet this little guy.

I am nervous about the c-section but that's just to be expected. It's something I've never done, personally. I know Isaak and Brett are getting excited to see the baby. I'm sure the excitement will wear off after he is home for a few weeks. The same thing happened with Isaak after Brett came home. He wasn't too impressed anymore and wanted all the attention back. I will keep everyone as updated as I can on the things happening around here, and I will do my best to have pictures of him up ASAP. I hope everyone else is doing well, I love you all!

My baby shower for Jack


I know you don't normally have a shower for your third baby, but I have a great girlfriend here who threw me one! My mom came and surprised me, and she also took my boys home with her for the weekend! It has been a well needed and enjoyed break. My nerves were really being frazzled by them lately. The end of this pregnancy has found me with now patience. So it was good for them too. I think they needed a break from crazy mom!
My friend Chrissy was nice enough to put a slide show together of the shower. I'm going to try to put it up with this post. I hope it works. I got everything I needed and then some. The girls that came are so great and I love them all. Brendi, the one who gave me the shower, is just so amazing! I am really blessed! I hope you all enjoy looking at the pictures. They are strong motivation for me to make it to the gym ASAP!
