Aubrey Kaitlyn

Well, I had an unexpected visit to the doctor this morning and got an ultrasound of Aubrey!! She's looking great and weighs in right now at 2 pounds and 7 ounces. I went in because her level of activity has drastically decreased over the weekend, and they wanted to check my fluid level since I've been so sick. Everything looks good though! I'm no longer dehydrated, but I still haven't gained any weight in the last month - which if you ask me is NO problem! They're not worried thought because I've gained 7 pounds total, so that's good. Aubrey is now sitting breach, with her head up under my ribs, which is why they think I'm feeling decreased movement.

We had family in town last weekend for our final Christmas celebration of the year. I'll post some pics tonight!!

Slacker.....

Ok, I know, I know...I haven't written in a month now. We had a most excellent Christmas, packed with family activities. Unfortunately Clint and I were so focused on using the video camera that we didn't take one picture on Christmas Day!! Madelyn had a blast with all of her Santa goodies, and really racked up on the toys!!

Our good friends Michael and Claire finally welcomed daughter Ella Kate into the world on New Years' Eve. We went to meet her last weekend and she is BEAUTIFUL!!

Over the holiday Clint and I bought new "big girl" furniture for Madelyn's room so we can start working on the nursery for Aubrey. The furniture was delivered last weekend, and so far Madelyn seems really excited about it and has been sleeping fine in her big bed! I'll definitely have to post some pics soon. Now we just have the nursery to deal with. I can't believe I"m due 3 months from today - CRAZY!! The time has flown by.

Speaking of, this pregnancy is really kicking my butt, as my doctor said! I've been having problems with dizziness and nausea and vomiting the whole pregnancy, but Friday it reached a whole new level. I called Clint and told him to pick me up from work. We went home and I just couldn't keep anything down, so my doctor had me go to the hospital just to treat the dehydration. After 2 hours and 5 needles, they were finally able to get an iv in, and we quickly learned that I'm allergic to Phenegren. Not fun!! But we stayed overnight and since I was able to keep some drink down Saturday morning my dr let me go home. Now I take 3 pills a day to prevent the vomiting and wear these motion sickness patches. Fun stuff! Hopefully all will return to normal after Aubrey makes her big debut!

Well, I promise I'll actually post some pics and update more often! Until next time.....
