3 Weeks Left!

Time is just FLYING by right now! I can't believe we have only 21 days left until we meet our little love! Possibly even less if she decides to come early! We had another appointment on Friday and I am still not dilated, but that's okay! She can stay where she is for as long as she needs to because I am still feeling great and besides that, I know in my belly is the safest place she will ever be. I did actually lose half a pound, but who knows how accurate the nurses always are when they weigh you...Either way, she said that is pretty normal so it didn't worry me too much.

Speaking of our appointment, here is a story...Our appointment was at 4:00. We get there and wait about 10-15 minutes until we are called back. I am sitting in the chair for about 45 MINUTES...The office closes at 5:00 so here we are listening to make sure people are still out there...Anyway, I start thinking in my head "Oh my gosh, what if something is wrong and they are waiting until all the other patients are gone because they know I am gonna cry and they don't want anyone else to see me upset"-almost hyperventilating, no joke! Kenny is telling me not to worry and if something was wrong, we would have known already. So a couple minutes later, the doctor comes in and says "I am sorry for making you guys wait so long, I just had 2 deliveries in 30 minutes and it threw everything back down here!" So needless to say, I was worried about nothing, but I thought that was an exciting story to share:)

Last night I was laying down reading a new book I got called "The Happiest Baby on the Block" which I am only a few pages into it, but it is good so far. Kenny comes in with my "What to Expect When You're Expecting" reading up on all that he can about the labor and asking me all sorts of questions...Like, if I want to watch it (thanks, but no thanks)...telling me what kinda of foods are okay to eat...he also told me that he will be asking me if I have to go to the bathroom a lot-I guess it helps the delivery process. It was really cute-I think he might be starting to get a little nervous:) But anyway, he is going to be such a great dad! If he's half the dad as he is a husband, he will be PHENOMENAL!

This weekend, Hailey had a tournament up in Prescott so we went up for the day. We ended up staying the night, but we left early Sunday morning and didn't watch the rest of the tournament, but they ended up winning the whole thing! Hailey had two homeruns on Saturday, over the fence and one was a GRAND SLAM! It was awesome! The fences were 200 feet and they easily cleared them straight over center field! At least we got to see her homeruns! The weather was perfect too, a little chilly at night, and overcast most of the day!

This was the only picture I got of us! Normally Kenny is the one who makes dumb faces, but after I realized he didn't, he wouldn't take another one! (That's okay though, at least I am not the one wearing two pairs of glasses)
And here is Chloe...my parents' new little puppy! She had fun playing in the grass and dirt all weekend. But I am sure it wasn't fun when my mom was trying to pick the gum out that got tangled in her hair!

On Friday, Kenny and Kelli had their second coed softball game, which they won! They are starting off the season with a 2-0 record! Way to go!

3 weeks! It's gonna fly by! You're so lucky if she comes early. Ryder was 2 days late. Killer. It's like you expect them to come early or right on time, but never late! You still haven't told me where you are delivering! Are you gonna be open to visitors in the hospital cuz I'm pretty sure that's the only way I'm gonna see her in person before she's a year old or something! ;)
