Update from Little Rock Trip

Well we made it home safely with good news. We went to see a cranial specialist to see if Fendley needed a helmet since she has favored her left side and has a flat spot. The doctor basically left it up to us to decide which of course I wanted her opinion! She said to wait a couple months because she isn't for sure a helmet would fix it as well doing these stretches that she showed us. So that was good news! I am busy getting back into the swing of things! Excited about a new school year but will miss my sweet girl dearly! Tomorrow is a practice day of getting into the swing! So I best head to bed!

I am back for real this time!

Ok. I am really going to work on keeping my blog up to date now! Stay tuned for some updates. Fendley is growing so much and is learning so much too! She is very verbal! She is trying to repeat different words we say! She can repeat uh oh, bye, hey, and this sound that she makes with her lips that sounds like a car. When we say, make a car sound, she will try to do it. Well, I thought I would get on here while I was waiting on her to fall asleep and she has now so I best get to sleep! Good night!

We are back!

Yes, we are back! Our house got struck by lightning a couple of months ago and we got the internet going again, finally! Be looking for some more updates in the next couple of days!

Fendley Kate Hall is here!!

Well I know it has been a while since I have been on here because I have been SUPER busy with the birth of our little girl! Fendley Kate Hall arrived October 3 at 11:24 a.m. was 6 pounds 7 ounces and 18 3/4 inches long. She is perfect! She is a mixture of both mommy and daddy! She was breech so I would have had a c-section anyways. We are doing good. I am just struggling with figuring out her schedule and adjusting myself.

Holding her for the first time!


Me and my little girl!!

Reality Check!!!

Yes, Keith and I have had a reality check today after going to the doctor!!! Sorry I haven't been updating because nothing is really happening. Things are still not happening but there is a slight problem. Fendley is getting bigger but my body is not responding that I need to go into labor. So we went to the doctor today and she checked me and I had not changed AGAIN!!! So she started to listen to the heartbeat and was having a hard time finding it. She finally found it. She said, "She is getting big." We said, "How big?" She said probably about 8 1/2 pounds right now!!! So she sit down and thought about it and said my chances for a c-section is getting higher because I am not showing any sign of going into labor anytime soon, Fendley is getting bigger, and my pelvic area is very narrow. So, she said that I will probably have to have a c-section. I told her whatever she thought was best. So, she said to come back first thing Monday morning for her to check me and if I have not changed, she will do a c-section Monday so bring my bags!! WHOA!!! So, this time next week, Keith and I could a precious little baby. If I have changed, she will monitor me closely and won't let me go but a couple more days. So, I am still trying to let this sink in!!! So we are busy getting last minute things ready. Just a little nervous about it but I know God is in control! So at 8:30 on Monday, we will see if we get to meet Fendley Kate!!

Another Update!!

I am sorry but I have been slacking again with my updates!!! School starting and getting closer to having this baby is consuming alot of my time. Anyways, we went to the doctor today to get "checked." Well, I am not dilated and the efface is around 30%. Dr. Partridge said that I probably won't have her in the next week. However, her head is in position ready. She said to go ahead and get the car seat in the car and pack my bags. I also asked about my sore ankle and she said it probably won't get better until after I have the baby. :( On a good note, I only gained a pound!! Yay! I think that is the least I have gained the entire time!! Also, Keith behaved himself too during the appointment! I will try to update some here in a couple of days and post some pictures from my showers!! Until then, God Bless!!

Long Lost Update!!

Well, I am sorry that I have not updated in a couple of weeks. The last time I was going to update I couldn't sign on and hadn't tried since. Well, here is a recap. School has started back which means I am SUPER tired!! We went to our labor and delivery class which was scary on my part but Keith thought it was pretty interesting. Now he is making me do this lovely exercises every night!! I told him I get plenty of exercise at school each day!! I had a dr. appointment last Wednesday and I got to see Dr. Partridge! She said that I was measuring right on track! I have another appointment Wednesday and then we start the weekly appointments and start to see if I am dilated....after she said that it kind of sunk in that it is about to be here!

I have my showers scheduled that will be happening in the next couple of weeks! I am excited about those! Fendley is really moving around and of course Daddy knows how to get her moving if she isn't but he picks times like when I am trying to lay down and go to sleep!! UGH!!

I have made a decision to send Fendley to a woman who has an in home daycare that only keeps teachers' kids. Several teachers at my school have used her. I went by her house and you can tell the kids really love her and she only keeps 5 kids or less. Fendley will be the youngest. There are three others that are there full time that around the age of two. I am thinking that Fendley will have some mother hens taking care of her there!

Well, I must get off here and do my exercises!! So good night!!
