Ellie Raye's a GROWING girl!!!

We found out today that Ellie Raye is a growing girl! She already weighs 5.1 pounds!!!! She is having a very rapid growth! If she continues at the rate of growth she is they don't know how much she will weigh. If she slows down to the average weight growth she should be around 8 or 9 pounds by March 20th that's gaing half a pound a week which is average. They are leaving my due date at March 20th but the ultrasound tech said they will probably induce me earlier. We don't know when though. We meet with the doctor next Thursday so hopefully we will have more of our questions answered. We know that we will have another ultrasound but we aren't for sure when. As far as a c-section or natural birth go we don't know for sure either. It just depends on how big she gets and what the doctors feel is the safest for Ellie and I. They couldn't tell us how long she is but she has flipped and is no longer breech!!!! We are soooo happy about that! She has her head in the correct positioning and her butt is in my ribs! So we know she is extremely long too and above average in length! We will continue to update everyone. Hope you are all doing well! We have 10 inches of snow so far in New Castle and it's still snowing!!!

8 months or 32wk Baby Bump.....but maybe 34!!!

Here's my 8 month picture from last week but it may actually be my belly at 34 weeks! She sure is a growing girl!!! We will know for sure tomorrow!

2 weeks early!

Miss. Ellie is expected to be here by March 6th now. We went to the doctor today and my uterus is measuring 2 weeks early. This means I am actually 34 weeks not 32 right now! We will have another ultrasound next wednesday at 9:50 a.m. I am excited to get to see her and have more pictures to share with you all! She just likes for people to see her. So far we have gotten to have 2 extra ultrasounds and we are supposed to have another at 37 weeks if she's still breech next week!

60 days to go!

I am soooo ready for Ellie to be here! I never thought I would be this excited! She will be here before we know it! We are trying to get her room done. We have everything put together that we have so far. I've got all of her clothes washed that we have so far as well! I am going to get her hospital bag ready and mine as well and get them in the car. We have our prenatal class on Saturday. John and I are a little scared of this class. We have heard it's an amazing class and you learn a lot.

John's probably going to kill me for sharing this story. We went to Wal-Mart Saturday and I wanted to get tights and socks for Ellie's Easter dress. Well I wanted to get the tights with the ruffles on the butt and he honestly wouldn't let me get them! He said that nobody needs to be looking at her butt and we weren't getting those. That we could just get the plain! Well Daddy over ruled and we got the plain tights! It's so cute how protective he is of her already!

John and I went to see My Bloody Valentine in 3-D lastnight at the IMAX theater with our friends. It was pretty awesome. We had never seen a 3-D movie. Their are some silly pictures from it! Have a great week everyone!

John didn't want to take this picture :)

Shower Pics.... 65 days to go!

Hello everyone well things have sure been crazy! John's Mom had her shower for me this past Saturday. It was a small quant shower. We had a good time. Thanks to everyone who could make it and for all the great shower gifts! Their are a few pictures below. My camera batteries went dead and nobody else got pictures. So I will hopefully get more pictures at my other shower. Well Ellie has decided to burrow into my right side ribs. I saw her hand impression the other day right under my ribs. It was sooo cute! I can feel her head pretty much all the time. Sometimes when I push on her to try to move her she will jolt or push back. She likes the position she's in for sure. We also had a little bit of a scare over the weekend because I fell on the ice. Luckfully I was able to fall on my knees. I honestly don't know how I ended up on my knees and not my belly but I did. I sure had an angel watching over us! I have just been pretty sore this week. My knees did swell some and I have bruises on them. It's so hard to believe I will be starting my 8th month in 2 weeks!!! John and I are soooo excited for her to get here! John has been in Las Vegas since Sunday! I pick him up tonight at midnight! I have really missed him the past 3 days. Lola has sure missed him too. She's kept his spot warm in bed every night!

30wk Update

Well John and I went to the doctor yesterday. I got all my results from my tests which were all good. My thyroids still doing perfect! We found out at our 3-D ultrasound that Ellie was breech though. They are going to to do another ultrasound at 37 weeks. When we found out she was breech last week it wasn't that big of a deal to me because the tech told us they normally turn. Well that's great but, she still hasn't turned so I am VERY uncomfortable. Nothing they told me to do is working. I just hope she decides to turn soon. It's crazy though because John and I can feel her head. John's mom is having her shower for me this Saturday so I am looking forward to it. We did get her curtains & curtain rod this past weekend at Target it's super cute. We got a pink rod with big pink gems at the end with brown sheer curtains! Hope everyone has a great week! I will post some pictures from my shower on Sunday!

New Year's!

Well John and I went to Bygones with our friends for New Year's! It was fun getting to go and see everyone we hadn't got to see in 7 months from the bar. I got to be the DD which wasn't bad. Their was a stand up comedian and it was pretty cool. I had really missed the band though. They are pretty awesome. We had a great time and enjoyed spending time with our friends.

When we first got to Bygones.
