Last Day in Mommy's Tummy

Here are the last pictures of me pregnant! We headed into the hospital Wednesday morning around 6 am and left yesterday with the most precious gift from God. 

37 weeks

Yesterday we hit the big milestone of 37 weeks!!!!!!

Every Monday and Thursday, since 24 weeks, we have ventured into Fargo to the MFM department for Biophysical Profiles. This is where they check the baby's fluid, movements, practice breathing and we needed the cord dopplered because of the complications we were having. 

Yesterday, baby decided not to pass the BPP so we did an NST (Non-stress test). No big deal, we have done those tons of times and baby does what they need to do and we go on our way. However, yesterday, baby decided to not pass that either! So after our morning appointment, we went back for an afternoon check. Baby did the exact same thing, so in the hospital we went! We went on an over night monitoring adventure at the Birthing Center. Thankfully Baby decided to cooperate during the night and got an 8/8 on the BPP this morning so we are back at home resting again. It is amazing to us how difficult this little peanut has been, stubborn like Bill for sure :) 

Can't wait to meet you Little Stansbery!! 

36 Weeks!!!!!

We are in a blizzard right now but, we made it to our appointment and back home again this morning! I think I only covered my face once while we were on the road. I am safely on the couch and Bill is safe and sound in Arthur so we are good.

 Even better, the baby was looking good this morning! Cord flow was good and we are doing well. Not too much longer now and we will get to meet this little one soon!

35 weeks

The baby was pretty funny on Monday. Hiding and popping up, it was pretty cute :)

More Progress!

Today I completed another project for the baby's room.

I think it turned out pretty cute! 

Now we just need to get the bed back in there, finish the shelving in the closet and put it all together. Well, and that whole wiring issue but Uncle Don is going to fix that so I am not worrying about it :)

34 weeks

Ufda did Baby Stansbery not want to cooperate yesterday! He/she was being difficult just like their father:) The check did not go exactly how we had hoped but we are still growing and that is what we want! 

We thought it was pretty funny that baby had their foot touching their nose. The flexibility of babies is absolutely amazing to us. We can't believe how they contort themselves! Gotta love those chubby cheeks too. Can't wait to give those toes and cheeks kisses:)

Maternity Pictures

Amy Warrey was kind enough to take maternity pictures for us. We had lots of fun and were excited the hoar frost was out so our cool spot was really pretty :) 

Baby Gear

We are making progress in the baby gear department! Dustin and Lissa got us our travel system and sent it home with me the other day. I texted Bill to let him know that when he got home, he could grab it and bring it in from the pick up. It was pretty funny because he didn't even take his shoes off before he dove into the project.

Sandy walked over looked at the stroller and walked away. Thankfully, Gus was there to help!

Grandma Becky and Grandpa Dale got us a Mommaroo, which is pretty much the coolest baby swing I have ever seen. I sure hope Baby Stansbery enjoys this product! Bill had fun putting that together too. He had a ton of fun doing it which made me smile :) 

Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Don got the baby a pack and play. I actually had to help with this because Bill wasn't quite sure how to make the sides go up :)

Along with the trim painting project and closet door instillation I am pretty sure we are on the right track again after our baby room preparation set back!

33 weeks

We had another week of funny Baby Stansbery movements. On Monday, the baby was putting their entire fist in their mouth and making kissing faces. Yesterday baby was doing some sweet dance moves  alternating between the feet and the hands in front of the face. We did manage to get a couple of photos, although not as clear as we have had.
