Daddy loves his Madalyn

Daddy ordered this fruit bouquet for Madalyn. They delivered it to the house, so when she came home from school this was on our front porch. She was so excited, she loves getting things in the mail so having it delivered right to her was extra special. Daddy got this for her so being such a big girl and a HUGE help to mommy. Mommy is trying to take it easy so "brother" does not come too early. Thank you Madalyn, mommy and daddy love you!!! And of course, because my family reads my blog, I have to say a HUGE, HUGE thank you to all my family and friends for all the help they have given to me and my family. I could eventually end up on bed rest until our little boy is here, so they are helping a TON to make sure I don't get there too soon. Thank you WE LOVE YOU!!

Hives

Here is some pictures of Olivia with Hives. We have no idea what caused them, but luckily with some benadryl and steroids they went away with in a few days. Poor baby.

It's a.......

BOY!!! Yes that's right a boy. Apparently we know how to make them. We had an ultrasound done earlier than scheduled because they found out that the babies blood was abnormal so they thought there could be a birth defect. We are SO happy to report that as far as they can tell the baby looks good. They were thinking it could be Spina Bifida, but it looks like his spine is just fine. So thank you for those prayers for our little one. However on the other side they were able to find out that I have placenta previa with placenta accreta. I know I know what is this? We have all heard of previa but I'd never heard of accreta. It is where the placenta is covering the cervix completely and the placenta attaches to the uterine wall too deep and too firm, thus making it highly likely for bleeding, early delivery and a hysterectomy. So we went from one issue to another but I will deal with the fact that we will for sure be done having children but I am completely relieved that out little boy is OK.

So.......What do you think???

We have an ultrasound scheduled for the 28Th January. They are so booked out I have to wait till were 22 weeks to find out what this one is. I did get put on the cancellation list, so lets hope someone needs to reschedule and then I can get in a little sooner. So I am curious what everyone thinks we are having. I can tell you I have no idea what this one is, I had a feeling with the girls but nothing with this one. So does that mean it's a BOY??? Who knows, you would think I would sense something, Yes this pregnancy has been different in some ways, but not enough for me to believe its a boy. It is highly likely it's a girl, we have had 3. Who knows. What do you think??? Oh and Happy New Year!!!

Olivia's 1st Birthday.

We had a double birthday party with my nephew Triston, his birthday is on the 7th and Olivia's is the 6th. We had it at Mcdonald's, Oh was that a treat. She was not as messy as I thought she would be with her cake. She would dip a finger in and then suck the icing off. Then she decided she would just stick her tongue in, and not get as messy. Everyine was trying to put her fingers in it for her but she was not having it. I love you Olivia, Thank you for being a great blessing in our lives.

Lots of posts and photos. Be prepared!!!

I finally had a moment to catch up on photos. I still need to post Olivia's birthdays, but I think I have done enough for today.

Christmas Day!!!

We started Christmas day off at our house we let the girls and Mommy sleep in. Daddy is still a little kid at heart at could not wait for the girls to wake up. After we opened our gifts and gifts from Santa we headed off to Grandma Debi's and Papa Cliff's to open gifts there and have breakfast. Then we went to great grandma Colby's for lunch. Then we headed to see Chris's dad Papa Jim to of course open more presents. And last but not least off to my Mom's for dinner and lots more presents. Although everyone said they would not spend as much it definitely does not show with the huge haul the girls made off with. Thanks everyone for spoiling them again.
