Its 11:38pm on July 28, 2012 and you are still not here yet! We are all waiting very very patiently. Tomorrow is your Aunt Cristina's birthday, maybe you will share a birthday with her? What do ya say!? lol Everyone thinks you will be here tomorrow or early Monday morning... which ever will be ok with mommy because Thursday is kinda far away! 

Your Aunt Kayla and Aunt Taylor are super excited to meet you! Mommy hasn't seen them in about a year so I am super excited to see them! Gram has apparently gotten you a bunch of stuff Aunt Taylor says she can't leave the house alone anymore because she buys you so much stuff! 

Over Due

Welp, yesterday was your due date! No signs of you wanting to leave any time soon sweet baby! We went to your appointment and nothing has changed, you weren't moving as much as you normally do so we had to get a biophysical profile done and have some other things checked out... you passed with an 8/8 PERFECT score! We got to see you! You have chubby little cheeks! Daddy says you have a "pig nose" like mommy! He is so silly!!!! We're so thankful and blessed it was nothing serious but after looking back on it mommy, daddy, Gram, & Nana all think it was because it was 8am and mommy didn't have anything to eat other then some water! Especially after the appointment we went and got breakfast and you were moving ALL AROUND!!! Its so amazing when you move, lets momma know you are ok! We love you sweet baby girl and cannot wait to meet you!!! We had two of our close friends have their baby's yesterday! Michelle had Elijah Lee and Kayla had Bentley Layne! Both boys! So we think you need to come to balance it all out ;) Cannot wait to meet you sweet baby!

Today is also mommy & daddy's anniversary! We have been married for two years! Its amazing how time just flies by! Maybe you will give us the best anniversary present ever and decide to come today! We will see! If not its ok, :) I totally understand who wants to share their birthday with their parents anniversary? lol

Mommy needs to go get ready! We have to leave for an appointment in about an hour! Maybe we will hear some good news about you stinker!

3 more days

Three more days til the due date! THREE DAYS! Doctors appointment to day was a bust, nothing new at all. Cervix = closed, but you are head down! One good thing! We are going back on Thursday (your due date) at 8am.

Your Nana will be here soon! We have to go get her from the airport at 9am on Wednesday morning!

That's about all that is going on in life for now!

Old Wives Tales

Old Wives tales on Gender!

Highs and Lows

This one you can do just by looking south: if you're carrying high, break out the pink. If your bump is low, you're carrying a boy. momma is definitely carrying you high, you are always, always in my ribs!

Sweet and Sour

Craving ice cream every single day? Some people believe this means it's a girl. If you have to have salty or sour stuff, then it's a boy. momma craves cereal all the time! that’s closer to ice cream than it is salty and sour stuff!

Chinese Birth Chart

This ancient method uses your age at conception and the month you did the deed to determine gender. GIRL!

Even and Odd

Legend has it that the Mayans determined a baby's sex by looking at the mother's age at conception and the year of conception. If both are even or odd, it's a girl. If one's even and one's odd, it's a boy. Mom was 19 and it was 2011, both odd! GIRL!

Nice Ring to It

Pop off your wedding ring -- if you still can! -- and tie it to a string. Hang it over your belly. If it swings in a circle, a little guy's in your future. If it goes back and forth, you've got a girl.

Queasy Does It

Sick as a dog during the first trimester -- or still? Signs indicate you're having a girl. Little or no morning sickness points to a boy. mom got lucky and wasn’t super sick! Only for about 2 weeks… although the thought and smell of some foods made me nauseas throughout

Just another manic Monday

We had our weekly check up today! Madison is doing great! Strong heartbeat even though she was "hiding" according to the doctor... not really sure how she could hide!! There isn't any room anymore!!! She's head down and will be a medium/normal size baby she won't be a shrimp as the doctor said, lol. 

Those once cute little flutters and punches are now painful! Momma is ready for her to be here! 17 more days! Grandma Main thinks you will be here between the 15 and 20th of July! Guess we will have to see!

Countdown

EIGHTEEN MORE DAYS til Madison is here! We're really hoping for less then that though!

Diapers

Just wanted to show off some of Madison's cloth diapers! We chose to go with cloth for many reasons but the main reasons were the over all price and how much better for the baby they are! A few good websites to learn about cloth diapering would be All About Cloth Diapers, The Diaper Jungle, and Pinstripes and Polkadots. Also my FAVORITE place to buy diapers Sweet Bottoms Baby Boutique, almost all of my diapers but a few have been bought from here, my SIL has also gotten her a bunch of them! :) Now to show off her diapers :) (the links to there websites are below each picture)
