Last night was a tough night. From 10pm to 3am I was contracting regularly 3 minutes apart lasting 45 seconds. I tried everything to stop them from Tylenol, hot shower, lots of water, laying, walking, nothing seemed to help. I finally feel asleep from exhaustion. Went to the dr this afternoon and I am 1cm and Dr Broome said he isn't surprised Im already starting labor trends because of Kimi being my fifth baby. Lots of water and rest. He said anytime now so its a waiting game. I didn't go to the hospital last night because I knew they would either give me meds to make the contractions stop and I would feel like crap and turn me away. I think my body is just preparing and Aaron and I are ready for baby Kimi.
My mother-in-law throw me a virtual baby shower on Sunday. We used web cams and all of my in-laws where in AZ and opened their gifts for baby and we played some games. I got a nice electric breast pump that will be used a lot since I will be returning to work. Also some adorable clothes and blankets. Thank you to all that came :)
My birthday is tomorrow (April 1st) and my co-workers yesterday surprised me with a birthday pot luck lunch. I had no idea and its so nice to work with people who you can also call your friends :) My boss, Michelle, made a awesome banana cake with homemade cream cheese icing mmmm it was soo good.
Other news, my mom and Anson have been dating for 7 years and are now engaged! They are planning a wedding for next spring and I am truly happy for them :) Its been a long standing question if they would marry and I'm glad they are doing it on their own terms.
Aaron's parents are driving to Texas next week to bring us a few pieces of furniture that we had to leave behind. They are really excited about seeing the girls. While in AZ we stayed with Crystal and Tammy and I got to spend time with our new nephew who by the way is the CUTEST little boy I have ever seen and I am no just saying that lol I am having Bram withdrawals lol.
So that's the update, I will try to keep this updated at least every week because I am so close to delivering. I update more on facebook so if you read my blog and would like more minute to minute updates search Morgan Lackey Klein.
