Oww! What is going on in there??

Little Helen reminds me of a chick peckin' its way out of the shell. She has pushed and poked me this week, like she is trying to get out. Constantly moving around. I love feeling her move! It makes me realize that her arrival will be here soon, and I can't wait!

Congrats, Ellis Family!!

First, I want to say Congratulations to Maranda and Jordan on the birth of their little man. Today, April 11, 2008, is his day, he entered the world at 6lbs and 12oz. He is as cute as can be! He was the 6th boy in the nursery on Friday.

So many choices...

We finally put the crib up last week, and I am waiting on the crib bedding to come in. I order it from Penney's, and it is suppose to ship out on May 1st. It is called Green Paisley Splash, check it out below:

However, this is not my baby's room. We have a white crib with a tan room, however someone will be painting the baby's room either a blue or green. I also was able to purchase the car seat for the baby:

I have always been partial to blue, turquiose, so it is blue again. That is the extent of my preparedness for little Helen. She has a place to sleep and a comfy ride. I'll post some more pics of the room as they become available, i.e. as soon as I get busy and do something.

The girls are anxious for Helen's arrival, and I am too. I am still seeing my doc every other week, and here are my lastest stats:

• Blood Pressure: 110/160
• Weight: +2lbs, not bad only 12lbs of weight gain
• Baby's heartbeat: 130s -140s

Overall, we are doing great, just a few minor flucuations of horrormones...another story for another time!
