Caitlin is here!!

Caitlin Marie arrived Saturday June 27 at 3:03pm after 7 hours of labor. Labor was very easy and fast. She was 7 lbs 5 ounces and 19 1/2 inches long. We just got home from the hospital today. Everyone is doing well and we are glad to finally have our baby girl here.

38 weeks and progress

I had my 38 week appointment today. Jeremy and Ethan got to come this time. I had some change. I am now 2 1/2 cms and 70% effaced. Dr Huish offered to strip my membranes so we did. It was painful!! He also offered to induce me next week if the stripping doesn't work. We went ahead and scheduled an induction for July 2nd!! The countdown begins!! We are definietly ready for her to come. Hopefully the stripping will work and she will be here sooner!

Baby update

I just turned 36 weeks on Wednesday. Doctor Huish said I am 2 cm dialated and 65% effaced. I guess that is typical for 2nd time moms to be dialated already so he told me not to get my hopes up. At least something is happening though!

Here is the baby bump. I have been told twice in the past week that I am "huge" and if I was having twins. Seriously?!? I don't think I look big enough for twins so I will just ignore the old lady in my ward who asked me this on Sunday.



Here are pictures of Caitlin's room. I love the bedding. It is really soft.







These drawers are stuffed with clothes!!


We are looking forward to her arrival in the next few weeks. We are ready for her!!
