Week 40
Sunday December 25- Monday December 27
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Monday December 27: I felt really good all day, went to Borah to help Manny grade papers and put in a little work and even made dinner. Manny thought it would good idea if we went for a walk. We we bundled up and took a walk around our block. I thought I was going to die. My abdomen hurt so bad it took us forever to get back home. When we got home I laid down a for a little and then took a bath. Started feeling normal again and then the contractions started. I'll post later what happened after that. We're very excited for her to be here and couldn't be more happy!
WISDOM BY TY: If still working and your due date has come and gone, lie. Tell people your due date is like a week later. It will save you lots of weird/dirty/confused looks, questions, and just conversation you'd like to avoid.

Week 38 & 39
Sunday December 11-Saturday December 17
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Wednesday December 14: Appointment Day. Still dilated at a 1, 80% effaced, but she is at -2 station. Heartbeat 140 and gained 2 pounds. Only 15 pounds gained so far...so proud of myself.
Thursday December 15: Finished the car seat canopy. Everything is coming together. Slowly by surely.
Saturday December 18: Finally finished the dresser and was able to put everything in it. The little one can finally come home to a clean room!
Sunday December 18-Saturday December 24
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Monday December 19: Manny and I had a date night. We figured this would be the last chance we would get befor the little one comes. We got dinner, did a little Christmas shopping, went to Sherlock Holmes, grabbed hot chocolate, and checked out some Christmas lights. We were glad we were able to spend some quality time with each other.
Wednesday December 21: Appointment Day. Still only at a 1, 90% effaced and almost at a -1 station. Heartbeat 145 and gained another 2 pounds. We set up an induction appointment for January 4, yes my doctor is letting me go 2 weeks over. Let's hope that doesn't happen.
Friday December 23: Due date came and went, still no baby. I did passed my mucus plug though. Probably a little too much information for the average reader, but this blog is for me and let's face it when you're pregnant there is no such thing as privacy and personal space.
Saturday December 24: I had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. Manny and I decided it was be better if we had our Christmas dinner Christmas Eve. Manny was so good went grocery shopping, put the ham in the oven, and set out the rolls to raise. I only had to do a few things to get dinner ready when I got home from work. It was a fantastic dinner. We were missing our families though.
WISDOM BY TY: No matter how well you know someone or how long ago it was, they all want to tell you their pregnant story, and it's always better than yours. Just smile and nod and eventually they will go away.

Week 37
Sunday December 4-Saturday December 10
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Tuesday December 6: Appointment Day. Heartbeat 149, uterus is still 34", and gained one pound. Manny is all worried and wanted to have the doctor check me. So she did and was very proud of my progress. I'm dilated to a 1, 80% effaced, and the little one's head is at -3. I'm proud of myself too!
Wednesday December 7: Finally finished the bedding for the crib. Again, proud of myself for my progress. During the entire sewing process I only had one breakdown where I had to call my mom to tell her "I quit." Here are the links for the tutorials for the crib bumpers, crib skirt, and fitted sheet. Now I just have the dresser and carseat canopy to finish. Hopefully I can get them done in the next two weeks!

Week 35 & 36
Sunday November 20-Saturday November 26
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Monday November 21: I've got some crochet projects done. Not bad for just learning.
Tuesday November 22: Appointment Day. Heart beat 150, uterus still 34", and gained two pounds. I had to do my strep B test which came up negative. Yay! My doctor also checked me. No dilation, no effacement, and she hasn't dropped yet. Now I start having weekly appointments.
Wednesday November 23-Sunday November 27: Headed to Jackson Hole for Thanksgiving with the Varela Family. It was so much fun to see everyone again, and like always very crazy. Lot's of PlayStation, eating, and games.
Sunday November 27-Saturday December 3
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Monday November 28: Appointment Day. I didn't feel like anything had changed in the last week so I didn't have her check me this time. The little one's heart beat was 149, uterus still 34", and gained zero pounds. Even from all the food I ate over Thanksgiving.
Tuesday November 29: First game of the basketball season. Manny's team played really well and killed Kuna by over 30 points. The Sophomores and Varsity also won both of there games. Being 36 weeks pregnant and sitting for five hours watching basketball isn't the most comfortable I've ever been, but I definitely would rather do that then sit at home by myself.
Friday December 2-Sunday December 4: Headed to Logan and Bear Lake for a couple Baby Showers. I flew to Salt Lake which was so much better than driving by myself. Everyone was really generous and giving. I appreciate everyone who came and supported me. Thanks Mom and Tab for all the hard work and love you put into my showers. Love you guys.
WBT: Moms can fix anything. Just let them. Mom I think you know what I'm talking about :)
Week 33 & 34
I've been slacking on the blogging lately. I'm dedicated the morning to catching up. Hopefully I remember some things from the last month.
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Tuesday November 8: Couldn't sleep so I decided to learn how to crochet. Random I know. I'm just sitting in the kitchen at three in the morning trying to figure it out. I'll post pictures of my finished projects when I get a few finished.
Wednesday November 9: Appointment Day. Heart beat 153. My uterus is 34" and gained 3 pounds which my doctor was happy about. So far only 8 pounds gained, not too shabby if I say so myself. She's head down so at least there's something going on in there.
Thursday November 10-12: I worked 32 hours in 48 hours. Needless to say, I was spent come Sunday.
Friday November 11 & 12: Manny had tryouts for basketball. His team is going to be good this year.
EVENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Nothing of importance really happened this week, but I did start having heartburn this week. Not fun at all. Manny says it's because the little one is growing hair.
WBT: Google is AMAZING! Use it wisely.
