Look How Much We've Grown!!

So the bad news is I am officially past my due date. Good news is unless I go into labor tonight I get to be induced tomorrow! Yes my prediction of having our baby early was obviously way wrong!
I think Heavenly Father has quite the sense of humor.. every time I tentatively plan on something going one way he likes to remind me who's really in charge.. :)
This I am grateful for tho. It has really strengthened my testimony that Heavenly Father really has a plan for me specifically. Looking back on my life, it has always turned out better then I could have ever imagined.
There has been so much change for us in the last 9 months It's unbelievable. The fact that we get to end the 9 months with a beautiful baby just makes all that we have gone thru even more incredible!

So I get to start calling the hospital at 10 tomorrow night to see if they have space for me, and hopefully we will be in there by midnight. According to the Dr. they like to monitor you even during the early induction process. At our apt. on Friday I was dilated to a 3 so that means they will start me directly on Pitocin and hopefully I will get to sleep somewhat thru the process. If all goes well we will have a baby by Wednesday! {I hear being dilated already should make being induced a little less painful.} keep your fingers crossed and keep us in your prayers please!!
My mom is also flying in on Thursday! I can't wait to see her! My mom and I have always been close and I think this has been the longest amount of time I have had to go without seeing her. I know it's all apart of growing up and it's good for me but, I just miss her so much! It really will just be the cherry on top!

So with tomorrow being my last day pregnant I decided to share some pictures of how much Our Nadya and I have grown!


2.4.11

Our first ultrasound taken at our first appointment on 2.4.11. I remember how my heart rushed when I saw her for the first time! {I also remember taking in a deep, deep breath when they said just checking to make sure there aren't 2! lol!} I love this picture cause she looks like she's smiling at us! :)


4.12.11

This was when we got to find out we were having a little girl on 4.12.11. Rhett flew to Kentucky the next day for his 2nd interview at the Best Buy Distribution Center! {He obviously got the job!} We got 2 of the best news ever in one week!


30 week ultrasound 2

Our first appointment with our Kentucky Dr. on 7.8.11. We love our Dr.'s here! They are the perfect match for our personalities. I don't so much Love the Ultrasound device however.. the pictures it takes just aren't as good! oh well!

The first pregnancy picture I took on 5.29.11. I wonder how many people were disappointed at the fact that there really wasn't much to see! I remember people looking at me like I just had a beer belly or something! Loved it!

The best profile picture I had taken on 7.14.11. {It was fun to show off my new hair cut and my baby bump at the same time!}


9.12.11

The latest picture I took special for all of you today 9.12.11!

Some things I know I want to do with the next baby is #1 have my sister Nicole take some pregnancy shots of me. #2 take a profile picture of myself the same day I have an ultrasound done. I think it would be so fun to put them side by side to show how much baby has grown and how much I have grown!

I know I'm still not very big but it's the biggest I have been my whole life! I am so ready to have our little girl! I have learned so much about myself the last 9 months and I cant wait to grow and change more as I figure my way thru motherhood.
I can't wait to be in the labor process {let me make that clear, I'm not looking forward to being in labor} because I can't wait to to lean and depend on Rhett in a way that I never have had to before. I look forward to sharing this experience with him, the last 9 months has brought us so much closer then I ever thought was possible. I know going thru this will be the same way. He's my Best Friend!

The next post I do will be of our Plus One! Keep track of us on facebook throughout the rest of this week. Rhett will be updating everyone with pics and what not via his wonderful Samsung smart phone! {love that thing!}
