Hiccups

Here is a video of lil sweet cheeks.... Just wanted to put this up real quick... I dont have time to write too much but had to share this! Everyone is doing great. I am making a slow recovery but still have to remember I am only 4 days out.... I am starting to walk a little more and we made it home to our wonderful home last night. Montana loves his lil sister and is very protective of mom and baby.... Will post pics in a bit too!

Introducing....

Little Miss Scarlett Christine Wales

She arrived at 3:50 am on 10/02/2009

Mom and Baby are doing well! Our bundle of joy is the cutest thing we have ever seen! She looks just like her daddy and is nursing like a champ! More details later as momma is recovering....

What we have been up to....

Here I am this morning 10/01/2009!!!! Day before Scarlett is born!! Last week I was measuring 4 weeks AHEAD!!!!!! She is expected to be BIG!!!!!

Mommy and Montana Showin the luv at 38 weeks!!!!

Cuddle times with Scarlett!

Celebrating the Hubbys 30th!! It wasnt the best BIRTHDAY but I did the best I could considering the situation!! Happy Birthday to my hubby cant wait to give you our little girl!

Joe after his Ulnar Nerve Surgery!! He has healed very well and that arm is ready to hold his new baby!!

Some pics of the nusery! It is NOT finished yet! Still waiting on window treatments and final vinyl for the doors.... Its been hard since I have been camping out in Crystal River for the past month! But here it is so far! I am so ready to be HOME!!!!!

Waiting on window treatments and vinyl doors.....

Ready as we will ever be!!

This is my last post before Joe and I become parents. My mom is flying in today and I am having a scheduled c section tomorrow morning at 10am eastern time... Scarlett is doing well though she is still frank breech and the ultrasound weighed her in at 8 lbs at my 36 week APPOINTMENT!!!! Doctor strongly suggested a c section.



I knew the day that I married my husband that there was NO escaping any chance of having a "small" baby.... Since Joe weighed in at over 10 lbs and I was over 9 lbs I think it was our destiny to have a big baby!



My belly has GROWN so much to where my pelvis and tailbone hurts so bad.... It has been a rough couple of weeks but all that will come to an end this time tomorrow! To say that I am nervous is an understatement. We are ready to be parents and I just PRAY that everything will go alright.



There is NO internet access in my hospital room as I was planning to skype a few people but I will have Joe try to post some pics sometime tomorrow and maybe a small video or two. I cant believe I am not going to be pregnant anymore... I am going to miss her rolling around in my belly but I am SOOOO ready to have her as I have been going STIR crazy!



Most likely we will be leaving the hospital Monday or Tuesday and making the 4 hour drive home after we leave the hospital... I am sure it will take longer than that but I am sure we will get through it! Joe and I are ready to be home and start our parenthood journey together... My mom is going to be here to help out for a few weeks which is going to be a BIG help! My sisters and Dad are flying in next Saturday and Grandma and Bob are comin through for a few days as well! It will be an emotional next couple of weeks and I am very excited (and emotional!) about it!



Joe and I have had a WONDERFUL past 8 years together and are looking forward to starting this new path in our lives.... He is the BEST husband I could ever ask for and I know he will be the BEST DAD!!



Please keep us in you thoughts and prayers this weekend and we will update when we can!
