So here we are....

Still here, still pregnant for another two weeks (at most) ....


Chad is working his 2nd to last weekend in the USAF.  He begins his terminal leave as soon as baby girl arrives!  Retirement actually occurs July 1, 2014 but he will no longer report to the base.

God is good however, because Chad begins a new job at Cintas in Omaha on April 14th.  It is for this reason that baby girl will be "evicted" no later than April 4th.  This makes mom very happy!

Chris also begins a new job - his first!  Today in fact.  He will be a server at a local restaurant here.  He is also playing in the orchestra for the High School Musical "Honk" and running track. 

Shawn is getting ready for confirmation in May and finishing up the 8th grade.... whew - 2 in high school next year!  He is preparing to run track as well. 

Isaac is getting ready to turn 5!  What?  How can my baby boy be this old already?  He is so excited for his baby sister to get here....hope that excitement lasts once she actually arrives!  Isaac was also enrolled to begin Kindergarten in the fall.  He was accepted into the school where I teach so we will go to school together each morning!  I am one happy momma! 

Baby Girl is still kicking and cooking away in the "crockpot."  She gave us no indication as to what she will look like so we are anxious to meet this little one!  She still remains nameless.  At this point, we are at 3 cm and ready to go.... any day any time, just waiting for consistent contractions!

Momma is holding it all together.... taking a minute to whine though - this pregnancy will be our last.  There have been many trials and hurdles along our way which encourage us to have faith that our family will be complete once BG arrives.  I have been in a boot/air cast on my left foot since the Tuesday after the Super Bowl.  That in combination with general pregnancy waddling.... makes for lots of aches and pains.  I have numbness and tingling in my right hand at all times (for about the past month).  Being right handed... this makes basic tasks very difficult.  There has only been one Doctor appointment thus far which did not include needles, shots, blood draws or the like!  I have low iron as well!  As you can see... this go around... not a smooth as the last, but I am certain she will be worth every drop of pain along the way! 

Sooo.... updates will be posted when she arrives.  Hoping for a birth weight below 9 lbs this time!  (Isaac was 9 lbs 7 oz). 

Til then!
