36 weeks!













Well, the time has come to start thinking about every braxton hicks contraction...."Was that one a real one?" I have an appointment tomorrow and the doctor is going to check my cervix so we will know if there is anything going on down there or not. I know for certain that poor little Sylvia is running out room to play in my belly, so she's probably going to want to make her appearance pretty soon. The video above is a video of Dr. Maple taking Sylvia's heartrate. The first heartbeat on the left side is my heart beat and when she switched over to the right side is Sylvia's heart beat. It doesn't get very clear until the very end of the video, but I still wanted to share...




Allen starts second shift next week. So, if all goes as planned he should be adjusted to the second shift sleeping schedule before Sylvia arrives so that we can get used to a new "baby" schedule together.




We are getting two different outfits to take to the hospital with us for Sylvia's going home outfit. We are going to take a newborn sized outfit and a 0-3 month outfit in case she is too big for newborn clothes. Tonight we found one really cute outfit at Wal-Mart that we had to buy. It says "Daddy's sweet heart". Everyone all together now... "AWWW!"

I know...I know...

Time for a new post...which I will have to do tomorrow. I spent tonight packing up our "go" bag. So tomorrow I will try to write a Cooley family update, but for now, GOOD NIGHT ALL! :)

34 weeks!

Tonight we went grocery shopping and we purchase the essential personal hygiene items for the "GO BAG" that we will be packing this weekend. We only have 6 weeks left, unless she decides to make an early appearance, which we are hoping not. I've never been so excited and so nervous before in my whole life. It's causing insomnia. Not that sleep is very easy these days anyways....I had no idea how much you actually use your stomach muscles to roll over in bed. Or how much you use your stomach muscles to to sneeze or cough, or lots of things for that matter.

Allen has his second shift bid, but they still haven't moved him to the actual shift, so he is still working overnights. I wish they would move him very soon so he will have a little bit of time to adjust to a new work schedule before Sylvia gets here.

Hope everyone is having a great week!
