Pregnant Belly @ 30wks

I figured I woud post a pic of my belly since I haven't done it yet. This was taken Saturday the 3rd, when I hit 30 wks. Sorry it doesn't show my face, but I didn't have any makeup on. Camryn had to be in the pic too.
Thankfully I'm still pregnant. I'm still having contractions daily and they're really painful now but I don't have them as often since they started me on weekly injections of Hydroxyprogesterone. I've been doing them for 8 wks now. They're a pain but I gotta do what I gotta do.
We're getting so excited to meet our little girl! I can't wait to see what she looks like. The kids are also excited. Tyler asks me every day if the baby is going to come out yet. Camryn is having a hard time. I think she can sense that things are going to be changing soon. She doesn't dare leave my side. She doesn't like that she can't sit on my lap much anymore. I try to take a bubble bath everynight so I can be relaxed before I go to bed, she screams the entire time I'm in there. She always wants to sit by me or on me and rub my arm or hold my hand. It's hard for me because I'm getting to the point where I just need my space to breathe and I can't have someone constantly touching me. I've never dealt with this before, Tailor and Tyler were totally okay when I was pregnant. I guess it's because we've babied (sp?) Camryn because she was a preemie. Oh well.
Anyway, I'll try to post on the rest of the fam in the next few days. Hope everyone had an awesome Holiday Season! BYE!!!

Free puppies!

We have 2 Doberman puppies left. We have decided to give them away to good homes. We have a blue/rust female and a black/rust male. These pics were taken 2 wks ago. They are 10 wks old now. The black/rust male is in the top left and bottom right, the blue/rust female is in the top right and the puppy laying down in the bottom left. They have the cutest personalities and love kids and other dogs. They are free but if their new owners want their ears cropped they have about 2 wks to do it. If you would like one or know of somebody that would like one please leave me a comment! Thanks!!!

Complications already?

So, I'm already having problems with my pregnancy and I'm only 22 wks. I started having regular contractions Saturday night (the 8th) arounds 9pm. By about 1am I decided I'd better head to Labor & Delivery. They were about 5 minutes apart by then. Luckily I didn't dilate at all! It took two different meds to get them slowed down enough to go home and get some R&R. I got home around 8am. This whole time Mike was in Vegas, he was supposed to be headed to the Ranch for 4 days with his dad. He decided to head home around 7am. The doctor wanted to see me in his office on Wednesday (the 12th). I was still having contractions every so often. The doctor decided to put me on weekly injections of Hydroxyprogesterone in hopes of keeping me from going into preterm labor. I got everything in the mail today and between Mike and I we got the first injection done. IT HURT!!! The medicine is oil-based so its thick and I could hardly draw it into the syringe through the needle. The needles are 22 guage and 1 1/2 inch long. We didn't put the needle in all the way because my thigh isn't thick enough for 1 1/2 inches of needle, but it worked out okay. Anyway, that's what is new in our life at this point. Hope all is well with everybody! BYE!

Our baby girls name will be...

Camden Olivia!!! We have finally come to an agreement on her name. I am so excited! I can't wait to see her, I wish I was further along!

In Loving Memory...

Today our sweet Rosco has passed away! We are deeply saddened by this. He has been with our Family from the beginning. We bought Rosco when he was a puppy in May of 2002. He truly was a part of the family. We will miss him so much! Daisy and the 3 puppies we have left are extremely subdued. They are all laying in the spot that we found Rosco this morning. We are considering keeping one of the puppies. We'll see if we're up to it, we just added a hamster and a 55 gal. fish tank to the household. Anyway, we just wanted to let family and friends know. Bye!

It's a GIRL!!! and Lake Tahoe

We found out we're having a girl! I was so sure it was a boy, but nope. I am so excited! This totally explains the reason why I've been so sick and why I'm still sick. And its a little depressing because this means that I won't stop being sick for a while. A positive is that if she's premature, like Camryn was, she'll have a better chance of survival than if she were a boy. The kids are getting used to the idea. Mike is having a harder time adjusting. He was really hoping for another boy to even things out. We had already decided on a boys name and now we have to find a girl name that we can agree on. I'm happy that Camryn will have somebody close in age to play with. She's really going to struggle when the baby comes, she's used to being the baby.

Well, we just got back from Lake Tahoe late last night. We went there for a wedding. It was so freakin' cold! It got down below 30 degrees and it snowed for a while. There was a lot of ice on the roads. We had our Yukon XL in 4WD most of the time we were there. The condo's we stayed in were up in the mountains so Mike's parents and sister had to parks their cars halfway down the hill and we shuttled everybody up in our car. It was crazy, but we had a good time. It's always fun to see family!

Well I gotta get the kids and I some dinner, so bye for now!

Puppies will be 3 wks old tomorrow!

Just thought I would do a quick post about the puppies. They will be 3 wks old tomorrow! They are getting so big so fast. Their eyes are open and they are starting to play with each other. They try to bite each other and growl at each other. It's so funny to watch. Well, I gotta go. I'll do a post on the family in a few days. BYE!
