So close now!

Tomorrow my identity changes. Although OVER nine months I have been pregnant, I am finally going to be a mother. Wow, it crazy to think that exactly 40 weeks and 3 days ago I was holding a positive pregnancy test in one hand, and looking at Price with tears in my eyes. That moment was probably one of the scariest moments of my life. So many questions, doubts, and fears rushed into my mind....The next couple of days we kind of walked around in shock. I remember constantly thinking, “We just got married, How are we going to do this?”. Over the next forty weeks the answers came...slowly. We are so blessed by our family and friends who have supported, encouraged, educated, and been there for us along the way.

It is funny to see how Price and I's conversations have taken a dramatic twist, we talk a lot about our plans, hopes, and dreams for Kamdyn. It is amazing to see how far ahead in her life we can “plan”...We talk about everything from education and etiquette to her first fishing trip with dad. Wow, it is so crazy to think that sometime tomorrow “fingers crossed” I will be holding my sweet little baby! Price keeps trying to tell me that he gets to hold her more since I carried her for 9 months, but I don't believe that will be the case :)


I am so happy there is now a HUGE light at the end of this tunnel we call pregnancy. I will be so thankful to get some relief in my knees, and legs which are super sore! I know my sleep patterns will still be distorted, but at least I won't be getting up every 45 minutes to pee!I can not wait to be able to get out of bed without having to twist and roll until I can position myself off of the bed. I also am so ready to not have a big belly, although I may regret this statment after she is born and I am left with the baby weight. But I know now, just like every momma has told me that it is all worth it when you meet that sweet little girl!


I just have to say that we are so thankful and blessed by our family and friends who have been there for us! Without you, we would be so very lost...

Well, I will be headed to Mercy tomorrow at 7:00 ish to be there by 7:30 AM for an induction. Please be in prayer for a safe and SHORT delivery...Also for peace during this exciting, but nerve wracking time! Thank you!

38 and counting..

Price and I had a really laid back weekend. Friday night we took our little nephew to the park and out for a snow cone. He is a blast, and is always saying the funniest things. I asked him if he wanted to feel his cousin Kamdyn in my belly, and told him where his hand was was her bottom, and he looks up and says "Why is she upside down?"...so cute! Price and him played really well together :)

Saturday, Price and I rested most of the day, and then we went on a little picnic to Hafer park.It was perfect weather.

Saturday also marked 38 weeks pregnant.

So today was slightly discouraging. My doctor is out of town the 10-20th. I am due the 18th...He scheduled an induction for the 21st assuming I make it that long, which on one hand I hope I don't due to being fat, out of breath, swollen, and being exhausted, but on the other hand I don't want another doctor to deliver Ms. Kamdyn..So I am just praying for peace that everything works out the way it should..

Life as of Late,

Wow, So much has happened since I last blogged. I am now a married woman. I am also expecting a sweet little girl---hopefully in the very NEAR future. We are naming her Kamdyn Elizabeth. She is due on the 18th, but I have my fingers crossed that she will come early, because I am officially miserable. Being 5'1 there is not much room for a 18+ inch baby in my belly.



I took this picture at the lake this weekend, I had to stick my leg so far out to be able to see my toes!

I think I am going to try harder to keep this thing updated...

With the news that Price and I were expecting we made the decision that I am going to be a stay at home mommy---at least until I finish my degree in the Fall. I am not really sure how everything is going to play out after that, but I am looking forward to morphing into June Cleaver with a clean house and baking yummy treats. We will see how this all plays out.....Until next time :)
