See you then!

Our Baby will be joining this world on:

Our Baby will be joining this world on:
Tuesday September 1st, 2009
The surgery is scheduled for: 9am.
It'll prolly take an hr or so for me to be out of recovery after the surgery.
After the baby is born Chris gets to do the fatherly duties and help out with all the check ups and baths etc. When he has gotten thru with that and the baby has a diaper on and you cant see any of the sex organs he'll have the blinds opened up...
as soon as he can he is planning on getting bethany & hailey and introducing them to the newest member of the Mouw family. After that is all done hopefully i'll be out of recovery and we'll have the 4 grandparents if all are present come into the room and we will proceed to announce the sex of the baby & the name.

***Very Important***
Please remember we are asking you dont feed or water the kids...
The girls are going to have special shirts on and even if you give the girls water they will dirty up the shirts. PLEASE DO NOT give them anything to eat or drink.. Also, No crayons, markers, pens, pencils or newspapers!
also we are working hard to break Hailey of this habbit of sticking her fingers in her mouth so if you see her doing that please tell her to stop and take her hand out of her mouth.
Thanks for your time and we look forward to seeing you @ the birth of our Baby!!!

Went to the dr on August 25th. He said the baby is doing great and so am i :) no signs of the past ailments that led to a premature baby!. He said he see's no problems with me making it to 38 weeks!!! So that being said he also said to call tomorrow morning *which is today* and schedule the c-section. But as it looks he is going to be doing it tuesday. Which is September 1st :) so i'll know more around 8am when I call and make the apt. We are soo excited!!!!
We are disappointed that our little bundle of joy will not be born on the 27th, or a monday, or after a holiday :) but we are overly joyed that our baby is coming out full term and will most likely be healthy!! WOOHOO
Ill blog a special post in a few hours when i have a for sure set in stone date & time!!

Every year on August 24th I gain another year of being cancer free. This year was super special cuz we celebrated my 10 years of being cancer free :)
I spent a LOVELY day of chillin @ home with my girls and I also took them to the park. After that we picked up Chris and went to a nice dinner @ Pizza Factory which lasted like 2hrs LOL Im not suprised though cuz dinner usually last that long with chris's family.
I had originally invited just our parents but my BFF keli wanted to come and how could i resist her!! LOL It was a lovely nite and im glad all those that did show up were there!!!
I look forth to another year!!

Week 37 ~ Month 10

Your Baby Week 37
Your baby is now considered full term. He weighs approximately 6.5 lbs (2950g) and his total length is about 21 inches (47cm). Your baby's crown to rump measurement is about 14 inches (35cm).

By now, your baby's head may have engaged into your pelvis.

You may feel that your baby occasionally has hiccups from his "practice breathing".

Though your baby is considered full term, he is still growing and developing both his body and his brain.

He is still laying down fat at a rate of more than half an ounce every day.
***This will be my last weekly baby update like this as i will be having the baby @ 38 weeks. Some where between Monday August 24th & Monday August 31st we will be having the baby. We go to the Dr on Tuesday August 25th @ 4:45pm and we will be then scheduling our Delivery. We will be talking to him about 3 possible days. Thursday 8/27 which of course is prime time LOL but also 8/28. We would love to do it on one of these days because then Chris wont have to use up all of his vecation time with me being in the hospital and he can be at home with me, the baby and our girls for the week he is taking off. Since its end of the year @ work he is only taking one week off. We decided he'd take 1 week off now and then 1 week off after things calm down at work. But with me being fresh out of surgery it would be helpful if he was home. I wont be allowed to drive and i'll need him to drive Bethany to school for that 1st week. And ofcourse if he doesnt want those 2 dates he'll schedule it for the 31st which is a Monday and the beginning our our 38th week!
We are excited and looking forward everyday to the new adventure that is ahead of us!***
