Yesterday at the mall... waiting

 

Still Holding

We are still waiting for things to progress.  Sam's feeling pretty good at this point, so we're glad for that.  The contractions have become less regular and further apart.  They seem to have moved from the back to the front which is hopefully a good sign-- back labor is no fun.
That's all for now.  Monday is supposed to be "induce" day if she's not moving by then.

Starting very slowly

Sam started having contractions yesterday after dinner. They seemed to settle down a bit as she went to bed later but became more regular as she got up & around this AM. As a result, I took the day off work-- convinced it would be today (they were pretty steady at 10 mins and shortend to 8). We all got ready and went to the mall to walk around some. After walking, eating & coming home, things are not much further. They are still approx. 8-10 mins apart at this point, but don't seem to be progressing much. SO, I think it will continue, but it seems to be moving very slowly.

Maybe tonight or tomorrow... stay tuned

Still waiting.....

Well the due date has come & gone (the 5th "Super Bowl Sunday") and we still haven't been able to meet our new baby. Sam had her regular OB checkup this am, and because of some things going on next week asked if he would consider inducing end of this week. He said he doesn't induce on the weekend, and would normally hold her off until mid-week next week. But did say that the soonest he would do it would be Monday, so we are back to waiting again. Hopefully labor will start naturally very soon. She's been feeling good, but pretty uncomfortable as you might imagine.

That's all for now, stay tuned...

They're getting better...... slowly

For the most part, the fevers are pretty much gone, but the runny noses, and whiney
"mmm oooo mmmmmyyyy-- i need a tissue" still continues (Maddie).

Trim in the room is now 95% up, I'll finish tomorrow and hope to get some paint on the bathroom stuff so we can get the fixtures installed on Tuesday. Also vinyl floor went into the bathroom yesterday-- looks great if I do say so myself.

More pics coming soon-- Goodnite.

Sick Kids

Maddie's been sick since last saturday. Doctor's think it's a viral thing, and by the time she went to bed last night seemed to be perking up a little-- hope it lasts because this morning, Grace woke up with a fever. I hope for her sake it doesn't last as long as Maddie's did.

Trim & Paint are in getting close now

 

Drywall's done

Girls new room

This past weekend Nanna Heidi, Uncle Roy & Aunt Cindy to help move the girls into their new palace-- eh room. Roy helped Quinn down in the basement work on hanging doors, trim, and HE EVEN SHOVELED THE DRIVEWAY! THANKS ROY!! Despite the fact that both girls & Quinn got pink eye, and both girls threw up, and Maddie has had a fever of 102 since saturday afternoon, it was still a productive & actually fun weekend.
THANK YOU HEIDI, ROY & CINDY FOR YOUR TIME, WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
