New Mommy Thoughts!

Well, since my last blog my little man Camden Gage was born. He arrived on October 4th weighing in at 6 lbs and 14 oz. He has definitely changed my life...but I knew he would! He is so precious. He sleeps pretty well for a newborn too. I am adjusting to waking up every 3-4 hours. It is a challenge, but he is worth every moment. Even when I am fighting falling asleep at 4 a.m. while giving him his bottle, he is worth it! LOL I'm very excited because I FINALLY get to have my baby shower tomorrow. It's pretty neat that Camden will get to be at the shower. Most babies don't get to do that! We planned the shower spur of the moment, so I hope we have a good turnout. As we speak, my poor husband flubbed a shower errand! He was delivering the diaper cake to my cousin's house. The bottom fell out of the cake and he had to call Debra to come and put it back together. Poor thing! I'll have to give him extra kisses when he gets home. I bet he's embarassed, bless him! Also tomorrow Camden will attend his first family Bama party! He's going to be all decked out in his Roll Tide gear. They played the day he was born and won so Camden has a winning record so far. Let's hope that continues tomorrow :) I'll post lots of shower and game day pics! I'm so glad that he is old enough to get out and about. I've been cooped up in this house since September 4th. It's time to get out so I have things to blog about!!!

Pregnancy Update

Well, there is not much to tell on the pregnancy front. From what I understand, we are waiting on some dilation. Dr. Shannon said that once I started dilating we could talk about inducing. I go back tomorrow, so hopefully we will have made some progress. Right now it is just super frustrating going to the doctor twice a week. Each time we go I have to sit through the non stress test which takes a good 30 minutes. They always have to take this little wand and jolt the baby a little bit to get his heartrate up because he is usually asleep. He does not like this! He always jumps really big one time and sometimes it makes him get the hiccups! All of his test results have been great, and I'm so thankful for that. As much of a hurry as I am in for him to get here, I realize that it is a good thing that they have not already done a c-section. It means he is healthy, and I couldn't ask for more! Hopefully after the visit tomorrow we will have something to tell.
