Busy Weekend....

We enjoyed a busy weekend as it is one of the last ones just the three of us!!! We took Marissa to Toy Story 3 on Friday night while it was storming out. We came out of the theater to flooding, branches down and my brand new patio umbrella broken.....I was not a happy camper! Saturday, we took Marissa to a parade. She has been talking about marching bands for a few months so we knew she would like to see some live in person. She really enjoyed it and was practicing in between bands her marching skills. We spent the afternoon at the pool where Meghan & Abby joined us for some pool fun. Enjoyed an evening out with John & Beth and the girls. Sunday, we spent enjoying the beautiful but VERY HUMID weather eating brunch at Northcoast with Grammy. Lake Minnetonka is always a fun area to be on a Sunday afternoon! I was totally wiped out and swollen afterwards though! I fell asleep at 7:00 last night and woke up at 7:00 this morning!

Next weekend, we'll enjoy the 4th of July at the Cabin so we are looking forward to that. I head back to the doctor tomorrow! I'll report back! I'll also try to post some pics this afternoon!!!

37 weeks!!!!

Another Tuesday.....another doctor appointment! Thankfully, my blood pressure was good today and baby scored a 10/10 on the bio-physical profile. So all in all, a very good report! Three more weeks until my scheduled C-Section date. I'm still having so many contractions but they don't seem to be doing anything as I wasn't anymore dilated this week as last. Repeat the same next week!!!

Father's Day Weekend!!

We spent Father's Day weekend at the cabin with G & G Holgrimson! Marissa always enjoys getting to go fishing and going on boat rides. She had the offer to go to Toy Story 3 but wanted to stay at the cabin instead. We did lots of relaxing which is good for me as I was having contractions all weekend. We enjoyed a fantastic steak lunch courtesy of the local butcher shop which I think was a highlight of the weekend :) I'll try to post some pictures soon!

I head back to the doctor this afternoon so I'll report back in with the update!!!

Baby Progress!!!

I had my weekly doctor appointment today. I had been having contractions since Friday and they did show up once I was hooked up to the machine today. Baby boy weighs 5lbs 7 oz according to the ultrasound so he is growing strong. Blood pressure was on the high side again this week. My doctor got called to a delivery so I had to see a nurse practitioner which was disappointing but hopefully I'll get to see him next week and talk about if I need to wait 3 more weeks or if we can schedule it earlier. I am dilated to 1cm so it's the beginning of the end!!!
