I am a terrible blogger...

and I just don't have the time to keep up with this blog so I am directing you guys to my other blog that is for friends and family since the very few of you that read this are friends. Let's be honest I think I only have a couple people that read this and that just had their own babies so I doubt they are checking blogs to much with their hands full. Anyways here is the link to my other blog

No Such Luck....

trying to get the little man to turn. The version went fine (yes it hurts) but he just wasn't budging. I am glad we tried because I needed to know that I did everything I could to have a vaginal birth. We are scheduling a c section for 2 weeks from today and yes there is a tiny chance he could turn on his own. Mentally I am just planning on the c section and if he turns great. I am disappointed. I really wanted a natural birth, but all that matters is that I have a healthy baby so I'm fine with it.

Ummm crazy...........my baby boy will be in my arms in 14 days!!!!

Breech Baby

We just found out today that our little guy is breech. Ughhh one of my biggest fears! I have worked so hard to prepare to have this little man naturally and I have to admit I am a little upset. We went to over 20 hours of Natural Childbirth class, I have read so many books, and have practiced so many positions and breathing techniques. All I really want is a healthy baby and that really is all that matters to us, but it would be nice if I didn't have to get a c section. C Sections, while performed all the time, do have a greater risk to both the baby and me. We are going in Thursday to try the External Cephalic Version, where they try to turn him and if it doesn't work then we will be scheduling the section. The doctor said we have a 50/50 chance of turning him so wish us luck! Turn little man!!

The most amazing baby shower ever!!!


It was so beautiful (although crazy windy) for my baby shower last Saturday. My friends went crazy and made it so special. WOW did we get spoiled. We got pretty much everything from our registry plus an insane amount of clothes. This little boy is going to be stylin!


Wonderful food, friends and family! There was an adorable watermelon baby carriage filled with fresh fruit. So cute!

My favorite desserts.....petifore cakes, chocolate covered strawberries and thin mints!


My friend Brooke who hosted the shower decorated these little petifore cakes herself. Aren't they awesome?


Just some of the little guys many presents. So spoiled!


We got so many cute monkey things. Here is an adorable stuffed monkey that is sitting on the top of a diaper cake.


One of the happiest days of my life. I just kept thinking this is MY baby shower. It was amazing!

Baby M in 3D

We went and had a 4D ultrasound yesterday and it was amazing. He is so beautiful and I am completely in awe of him. He kept playing with his entire leg in front of his face as you can see in the second picture. Flexible little guy! Here are some pics.
