some photos

lol. Hunter is always putting on my shoes! :D

When I ask him where his cheeks are, he pinches them :)

Hunter kept trying to put the toy into Keegan's hand, but Keegan would not hold onto it.

he decided he would take off his diaper. thank goodness he didn't poop in bed...this time

I love Keegan's smile!

This is Hunter when he wakes up. lol. I can just picture him with this same exact face at 16 not wanting to get up and go to school. hehe.

Love Love xoxo

Hunter loves to give Keegan hugs and kisses :)
all these pictures are in my facebook photo albums, but here are a few of the best ones...

Another Mini Ryan?

I have been looking back at baby pictures of Hunter to see how much Hunter and Keegan look alike. Ryan has said from the first day that Keegan looks more like me. I thought so at first too, but looking back at Hunter's baby pictures i'm not so sure. So you decide, does Ryan have another mini me, or does Keegan look a little bit more like his mommy?

What do you think?

Change in Plans

The C-section has been moved to Friday at 5:00pm.
:/ I'm not sure if this is better or not.
It gives me one less day to worry about it I guess...
and one less day to prepare...
Either way, please keep us in your prayers that day that everything would go smoothly, and that I will have a quick and good recovery from it.
I am beginning to be okay with the fact that I will have a c-section, but I am so worn out from not sleeping well and the stress from anticipation of the surgery that I am over emotional about everything. so please also pray that I can stay calm for Ryan's sake and not cry at the drop of a hat. lol.
Thank you all so much!

12:00 Dec. 27th, 2008

This is when baby Keegan will enter the world.

How do I know this? No, I'm not psychic, we have scheduled a C-section.
The baby has still not turned with his head down, instead he has decided that he is quite comfortable sitting sideways instead. :/

So please keep us in your thoughts and prayers this next week as I prepare myself for my first surgery ever. (I am a little-okay, a lot- nervous about it since I have never had any kind of major or minor surgery before-in fact the only time I have even been in the hospital is for Hunter's delivery.)
I'm still holding out hope that he will turn head down by the 27th so that things can proceed naturally! (please God, I could use a Christmas miracle!)

Thank you for your prayers! We will keep you updated.

Merry Christmas everyone :D

"He Likes to Move It Move It!"

Move It!

I had my weekly prenatal doctors appointment today. Last week the baby's head was down, where it should be, and this week he has moved so that his head is in my side rather than facing down. so instead of lying vertical I guess he is a little more horizontal. (if that helps you picture it better)
Next weeks appointment they will check the position again and see if he moved back to where he should be, if not they are going to try to move him (eek!?) and if that doesn't work, I will need a c-section :(
So pray that he moves back !!!! lol. I don't want a C-section!

I am 90 % sure he will move back again, Hunter had done the same thing, just not quite so late in the game. I still cannot believe there is only 11 days to go!!
I'm starting to get anxious about it, in a good way though, not worried anxious, just really can't wait for him to get here! :)

Ramblings

It is a beautiful Wednesday evening, the baby is sleeping (well sort-of), Ryan is at work, and I have much homework to do! (which is why you find me posting on my blog instead of hard at work) ;)

This morning I had another doctors appointment (they are every two weeks now :( which equals a lot of driving!) everything still looks good. The baby's heartbeat is strong and he was kicking almost the whole time I was at the appointment! Two weeks ago they did the glucose test and everything came back normal with that. No surprises there.

Afterward Ryan and I went to the mall for a little bit just to walk around and relax. I was super excited I got Panera for lunch! (that is the one thing I have been craving ALL the time with this pregnancy!) :) yum yum yum. Hunter has been coming down with a bit of a cold, poor little guy. his nose is real stuffy and just drains down his throat which makes him cough a lot. and in turn he doesn't want to sleep. :( He has been really clinging latey too, probably because he doesn't feel well :( Other than his cold, he has been doing great.

I'm really excited for this Friday, Ryan took the day off so that we could do Trunk or Treat again this year. Hunter is dressing up as a fireman (of course!) and if I can find a big orange tee shirt, i'm going as a pumpkin. hehe. I wont spoil how we are planning on decorating our trunk, there will be pictures up soon enough ;) I am just excited to be able to spend the day with Ryan. I think we are going to carve a pumpkin or two in the morning and then just relax all day before heading over to the church for Trunk or Treat. It will be nice to have a long weekend with him!

well, I suppose I ought to get working on my homework for the night. ...
