39 weeks and 2 days

I never thought I would still be pregnant at this point! I am glad that she is going to be healthy and hoping she does not have jaundice like Olivia. But, at the same time we are ready and anxious to meet Kylee. We have an appointment Tuesday morning so I am taking the day off. I am excited because Chris and I will get some time together at the doctors and then we are going to lunch before I take him back to work. I am interested t see what she has to say this week! I am a little concerned because I realized yesterday that the Final Four starts Friday at Reliant, which Texas Women's is right across the street. So, I hope and pray she comes before or after all the games.

Olivia is still not sure what to think. We keep talking about baby sister and the things that are for her baby sister. I know that once Kylee is here Olivia is going to be the best big sister....if she ever gets here ;) 

I will let everyone know what the doctor says Tuesday! Keep your fingers crossed we are getting closer!!

Is the end in sight?

My mom, Olivia and I went to the doctor Tuesday and it was quite a trip. What I thought would be a quick and easy visit ended up being a 2 hour and 15 minute trip. But, Olivia did a great job and of course my mom was a HUGE help! My doctor was worried because I had not progressed in a week and when I told her I thought I felt her legs in my ribs she sent me to get an ultrasound and be hooked up to a monitor. I thought we would get some better pictures but she just wanted to make sure Kylee is still head down. I was then worried because I do not want a C-section! That is not in my plan unless it is an absolute emergency! So I was VERY relieved when she showed that she was in fact head down. While hooked up to the monitor they watched her heart rate, movements, and contractions. I only had 2 contractions in a 15 minute period. So, Chris and I will be back at the doctor Tuesday for our 38 week and 4 day check up.

Today, my mom came and picked us up and we went to walk the Fairfield outlets. I was thinking maybe that would get her moving and ready to join our family! It looks like I will be back at work Monday unless she decides to come this weekend. We are already for her to come and excited to meet the newest member of the Charbonneau family!

The Waiting Game

I am 37 weeks and 3 days pregnant and ready to meet Kylee! I am glad she is comfortable in my belly but this little or big girl is running out of space. I made a joke with Emily about going and buying a moo moo to wear since nothing else fits and she "forbid" it. I wish I could have recorded her reaction! My mom and Olivia are going to the doctor with me tomorrow and we will see how she is doing. Last week I was measuring at 38 weeks so still a week and a half bigger. Hoping maybe she will give me some good news.

Olivia and I are on Spring break and I am excited to spend this time with her! We went to lunch with my friend Jaclyn today and had a great time catching up. Tomorrow we are going to the doctor and maybe the zoo or butterfly museum with my mom. Wednesday we are trying out Soccer Tots and then have lunch with Jennie, Heidi, Brooke and the Crawford sisters. We have a fun but busy week planned ahead and I am excited to get to spend some mommy/daughter time with her!

We will keep everyone posted on our progress!
