QOTW: we have no plans. just hanging out at our apartment pool and trying not to get too hot.
Haha, Judah was 7 lbs. 14 oz, not 7 lbs. 20 oz. That would be a much bigger baby than I had
.
QOTW: We have no Memorial Day plans as yet. We will probably just take it easy, maybe have family come to us.
JaysonandKristin is team blue -- Otis Arthur!! Everything else is still the same.
QOTW: My BIL, SIL and their 3 sons are coming down from OR for the holiday weekend. We are leaving the 4 grandsons with my MIL/FIL so that we can all go out for Jayson and my 4th wedding anniversary -- double date to see Hangover 2.

BFP 1/22/12 | Ectopic pregnancy found 2/14/12 | Methotrexate to complete m/c 2/15/12
QOTW: DH has to work all weekend because he manages a landscape nursery, so nothing big planned. I am hosting BUNCO Friday night with a group of girls I worked with, then DD and I have a bridal shower to go to on Sunday. Saturday or Monday we may go help plant things at our CSA depending on the weather.
UPDATES: Not much. We are onto 2 week check ups with the midwife. Still haven't told my dad because of his reaction when we told him we were considering a MW home birth. He basically said I'd bleed to death and die because of complications or problems. He has been hard to talk to for quite a while now. He even got snippy just yesterday because he is stressing my sister out about her wedding.
I have had 3 classes cancelled in the last few weeks that I was scheduled to teach, and that paid really well. That really stinks.
We got the garden in last night. We also got some other perennials and shrubs into the ground over the last few nights. Finally things are looking like they are taking shape outside. That is really nice!

KrisM86 is having a GIRL and very excited!
QOTW: FI and I are heading to Richmond to see his family for the weekend, and then back home for a cookout on Monday with my family. It'll be busy but fun!
Whoops! I'll get that changed for next week. Sorry about that...and yes, that would be a much bigger baby. :-)

Jacob Bradley born May 5th, weighing 7 lbs, 1 oz We had a successful water/hypno birth and I was only in labor for 6 hours! Best birth EVER!!!!
QOTW: My daughters b-day is on the 28th so that is our families plans!
We don't have plans yet but will likely hit up the beach like we do almost every weekend now.
News: today was my 2nd MW appointment and she was able to find the heartbeat. It was at a strong 168. I am getting excited for our NT scan on June 2nd. Can't wait to see this baby again!!
Breastfeeding and pregnant!
QOTD: we are heading down to NC for DH's annual family reunion this weekend. it will be DD's first visit there. she's really into crawling and being on her own right now, which causes me a little hesitation b/c the host's home is filthy. i think we'll be spending a lot of time at the hotel or sightseeing this year!
in other news, i started a new HypnoBirthing class last week. i absolutely LOVE sharing HypnoBirthing with other families!
Update: EDD 10/2/11, Team Blue!, Hospital, Bradley?
