Back to the blog...

Well suprise suprise, I have forgotten all about my blog again! but now i guess i have more to write about..

So Olivia turned 6 months Old yesterday! growing up so fast! she has started to speak a little, saying mum and occasionally dad but nothing very well yet, she is so big now wearing all 00 clothes! she has started crawling backwards very well and in the last few days started going forward a little... now the trouble is going to start! she loves the animals especially the dogs which she pats, she is eating so much, loving her food and its starting to show! little chunky monkey :) not long until we start swimming lessons which will be great for her to meet new babys and for me to get some exercise!

Speaking of exercise me and a few friends have started going to a step class at the gym on Monday nights which is exhausting but fun! so Kieran watches Olivia so they can have a play, Other than that I still dont have a great deal to do durning the week, I plan to move my horse Buck to town so I can get him going, hopefully eventing next season!

Kieran has a new job as the manager of 25 000 sheep on a farm in Frankland which he is loving, so good to be away from the shearing sheds! we dont have to worry about having over a month without a pay cheque! he loves to work as well, it's just what he wanted to do, his boss is easy to work for and and as good person, so hopefully it all works out!

Well thats about it,

Busy day

What a busy day today has turned out to be!

Woken up at 4:45 this morning by Kieran to make his lunch, he got to feed Olivia this morning so they were both happy to spend time with eachother before he had to leave to work, me and Olivia went back to bed until 9 then My brother messaged and we decided to go to Albany, I finally got Kierans present! but wont post what it is incase he reads this! (Which I doubt will happen!) and Josh got some stuff, we came back to town and Olivia had a play at uncle Joshes house which was very fun, we then went to town to pick up some stuff, then cleaning the house! we are very excited to be going to Perth this weekend to see the family! Olivias first big trip, Hopefully she takes it well. hmm yesterday was terrible I tried to make pasta added all the ingredience and had no milk!- pasta for breakfast that is, we had no food in the house! then I wanted a coffee stupid me made it all and again no milk. then I got a phone call from a friend saying her brother had passed away the night before. so we went out for lunch to get her mind off it, Olivia was a big help with her beautiful smile :) The puppies are terrible. they destroy everything bark at ridiculous hours of the morning dig in my garden! time to find a home for the little one.

Well thats all I can think of to write about, but Ill post some pics!

bloggy wogg!

So Albany was lovely no baby to be heard of from lana! hopefully soon though im very excited for Olivia to have a little friend! the weather was wonderful and breakfast at Dome was lovely, I didnt end up getting kierans present because I got to Mount Barker and realized he had my bank card! so another trip to Albany is on the cards for tomorrow... If i can be bothered! Olivia got some new winter warmies from target which im sure she will love! so much cute stuff i cant want for a cold day to dress her in them! poor bub is a bit sick at the moment with a cold but all snuggled up in bed now sound asleep :) Kieran only has a few days left at this shed he is at then he finishes up there then ends the season in April.

Hmmm not much else worth writing about so I'll leave it at that!

xxx Courtney Olivia and Kieran

Full of questions!

So here I am keeping to my word about blogging all the time! but its only 7:13 in the morning, and so far a beautiful day! so I am off to Albany in 47 minutes to have breakfast with Lana as she is due to have her babyTOMORROW! but seems to be going in Olivias form of making her wait, fingers crossed she might go into labour today! anyway back on track- Going to albany, the weather is beautuful but for how long? no doubt we will plan for the beach, dress for summer then by 11:00 it will come over awful so I am in a pickle. I think I will pack me and Olivia a few outfits each! and charging to camera is going to happen before I leave lots of photos to take today!

Now more importantly I have a bit of a delemma- I would love to get an Iphone but they are expensive! but the phone I have now is a cheap version of an Iphone but its shit, so should I pay more and get good quality or should i cheap out and get shit again??

Second dilema- ( How can someone have so many dilemas by 7:19 in the morning!?) Kierans birthday is coming up and I have no clue what to get him! boys are so difficult to buy for! especially him because if he wants something he will just get it himself so i cant pick up little cues that he has said

 e.g

Kieran: I want a new spot light 

Me: ( Sub concioulsy) yay something i can get him!

Kieran: (2 days later) I grabbed a spotlight this afternoon.

see??! this is why i have this problem every time there is a present buying date coming up! well maybe i will just have to be inventive and find som,ething he wants but doesnt know he wants?

Its now 7:27 and I am suppose to be ready and gone by 8 and im still in bed so now i have rambled shit for a good 15 minutes i better be off!

Wonderful weekend!

So I have remebered to blog again! yay!

After the debate of either the rodeo or bremmer bay we chose walpol... a new idea, which turned out to be a brilliant one at that! we got to our villas where kieran had booked and they were amazing! big 2 story villa with a spa a balcony plazma tv, all right by a beautiful inlet on our left and a little pub to the right, we had a spa then went out for dinner at the pub which had lovely big meals, We then went to the jetty on the inlet with our rods for some fishing but didnt get a single bite! Went home after a while and watched a movie then off to bed.

This morning we woke early grabed breaky at a cute little bakery then headed to Peaceful bay to fish in the inlet there, we could see heaps of king george whiting coming up and biting at the bate but again no fish! after that driving us mad for a few hours we gave up and went to denmark,  we stopped at the toffee factory and got some delicious gormet salad dressings that they make and kieran got an ice cream, then we called into greens pool and it was beautiful! such nice weather but the water was freezing so I only went in up to my knees! we then left for Mount Barker to get Olivia from mum and dads, she had a sleep over there last night, It was good to see her we missed her alot!

Now our little holiday is over and we are home... Just wish I remebered the camera so I could of posted some pictures!

xxx Courtney, Olivia and Kieran!

Finally back!

Wow! been so long since i have been blogging! and alot has happened since, as you can imagin! Claire and Tianna came for a visit, Kieran and his friends going out all night fox shooting, so so much car trouble. a friend about to have her baby any day now and a house full of puppies! but i'll just fill you in on the main stuff for now!

Well Olivia is growing and learning more and more every day, she is laughing, playing in her jolly jumper, fitting in 00 clothing! so big now!! she sleeps in her cot in her own room, sleeps through the whole night from 6:30 to 6 in the morning which is so good but not having her in our room now means i get up every 5 mionutes to check her! Yesterday we had a little moddling session! a friends mum works for a family and parenting company and they needed new people for the pamphlet so me and Olivia were the ones! hmm what else is new with her?? we are going to start swimming lessons at the heated pool in Albany which i can imagin she will love if she likes it anywhere as much as she loves baths!

Kieran is working at an 8 stand shed in Frankland which is keeping them all pretty busy they should finish there on wednesday ot thursday. He has had a flat tire for 2 days so I have been taking him to work and picking him up so lots of driving for me and Olivia!

Plans for tonight are pretty undecided but should be amazing either way! we might go to Wagin for the Wollorama to watch the rodeo with some friends or me and kieran are going to go to Bremmer bay to go fishing :) Mum and dad are going to watch Olivia for the night so we can have a night off what ever we decide to do

Sooo with those plans to get organised for I better get going!

Promis to keep blogging!

Me and Olivia Yesterday!

Pretty proud of herself in a washing basket!

Chilling at the lake with her hat on!

19/12/2010

What a big day yesterday was! Me and Olivia had a big play in the morning then Jazmin came over at about 1 and had to do a quick trip to Cranbrook, so we chucked the car seat in her car and off we went, called in to Bec and Chloe's house for a coffee and spent along time there! then all piled into the car to cranbrook, we picked up the stuff for Jazmin, by this time Olivia needed a feed so we had to break into Jo and Ben's house to make a bottle, we then called into Ben and Joe's parents house to give them a visit with Olivia... who hadn't slept since we left! by the time we got back to Mount barker we had been gone for 3 hours and had a very sleepy baby on our hands. Kieran and the boys had to work until 3 (Why we had to break into the house, they were at work) and was home when we got there. We settled Olivia and put her to sleep and got ready as we were going to Frankland with everyone from Kireans work to see a comedian, we all got a bit messy and the Comedian was an absolute crack up, mum and dad baby sat Olivia who was a little angel slept for 6 hours between feeds! we got home about 1:30 and Kieran had to work today! so I bet they are all feeling a bit sorry for themselves today! Josh has moved into his new house, so this morning me and dad took some furniture around there, and I'm hoping that is the last thing I will do today! I think I will go back to bed and wait for Kieran to get home :)

From the beginning!

Seeing as I started this blog towards the end of my pregnancy I think I will write from the beginning!

Well, It all started in March 2010, Kieran and I had packed up our lives and driven across Australia to go on a working holiday, Living in Bendigo in a Camper trailer was not as bad as it sounds but the work was! Kieran was suppose to be shearing and me rousing but the work promised to me wasn't there and the shearing was so bad it was costing Kieran more than he was making! so we decided to look for a new job and got one on a farm in Kimba, South Australia where we had a house to ourselves, all was good for about 3 weeks, when we realised I was late... being on the pill, I knew exactly when I was due so we took a test which came up negative, strange but we waitied a while and tested again... Postitive. now the hard part- Telling our parents! well we thought the hard part anyway, everyone was so supportive of whichever decision we made, after a long talk, we decided we wanted to be a family and so the journey began! Not long later we had planned to go to the hospital to check and have a dating scan, it was too early et for the scan but we worked it out to be about 5 weeks along, and along came the morning sickness! well not so much spewing but i couldnt even look at food without it making my stomach turn, it was so hot where we were working and was very physical, and we both became very home sick so made the decision to leave back to home. at 12 weeks we decided to tell people about the pregnancy as we had the tests and everything looked fine, we wanted to just keep it close friends knowing first then eventually let it get out but our timing was bad and we told a friend the night before our mates 21st so a few drinks into her and EVERYONE knew! I was really worried about being judged for being so young but everyone was so supportive and really caring which was great. 20 week scan came along and we decided to find out what we were having, Nate for a boy and Macey for a girl- and it showed a little girl! so so excited we painted the room bought everthing we could for her. we later decided on Olivia for her rather than Macey which we both loved. on the 30th of August Kieran Proposed to me which was wonderful, we both want to wait a while before any wedding thoughts come but wanted to have our own way of being a true family, everyone was very excited for us and we are excited for ourselves!

And that about gets us to where the blog begins, not a great deal happened between! well nothing i can really remeber :)

17/12/2010

Wowee what a day yesterday was! Kieran went to go to work only to find our car had been broken into, keys and wallet stolen! Unbelievable... So until we get it sorted we can't drive it anywhere...which means we can't take Olivia anywhere! Of course it was a day that I needed to take her to the child health nurse who is based at the school, which is a BIG walk! but my lovely friend Jazmin took an hour off work to take us down, The appointment went well, Olivia is at a good healthy weight and is gaining at a good rate. After the appointment we came home, Olivia had a feed and a big sleep then Bec and Chloe came over and we went down for a coffee which was lovely and Olivia got covered in kisses and cuddles as always when we go to town! we then had to go and cancel the bank cards, so there goes our Christmas shopping plans for a while, I think we will be pushing it on the last day! As for kieran, Work has been busy, He was shearing yesterday which he enjoyed but he was tired by the end of the day, luckly his friend Joe lent him his ute for the next few days to get to work and back. Today has been pretty quiet, Kieran left early this morning to drop sausages off at one of the boys houses, I have been busy trying to get the car sorted and Olivia has been a big sleepy girl! she is smiling alot now and is just so lively and alert, she is staying with mum and dad on Saturday night as me and Kieran are going out with everyone to Albany which should be great :)
Well thats about it for today, I'll keep you posted!

Here are some phtots Janelle took of Olivia, still plenty more to come!

Back to my blog... 15/12/2010

Well it has been a long time since I have written on here but I have a valid excuse now days! So our little Olivia is 3 weeks today! I don't know where the time has gone?! but she is amazing, she has started smiling at us and is such a happy little girl, She has had a few sleep overs at the farm, which will become her proper home within the next few days as I am FINALLY getting my licence! I haven't been very good, I struggled with breast feeding for the last 2 and a bit weeks but it was really bringing me down, to the point of dreading feeding and I decided Olivia is better off with a happy mum and a bottle than a depressed mum and a boob! although I am still expressing every second feed, I wish I could of kept feeding but it wasn't worth it, I got very sick the other day, after getting worse over night Kieran took me to the hospital, turns out I have an internal infection from the c-section most likely in my uterus and mastitis! anything else want to go wrong?! but we are very happy and the antibiotics are working wonders, I hardly feel sick at all. I shouldnt complain tho, I have it pretty good when it comes to sleep! Olivia feeds at 9, sleeps until 2, feeds, sleeps until 6! so we get lovely nights :) hmm what else? Kieran is finally back at work properly, after having the time off with Olivia he went back to work then had so many wet days and half days so he has been abit grumpy about that but now solid work until christmas eve then a week off then abck to work.

So that seems to be about everything thats been happening with us,

Will get new photos uploaded very soon!

So what has been happening with us? We took Olivia for a walk into town, which was nice! she seemed to like it but it all got a bit full on after a while for her, I think I over did myself on the walk aswell! but it was nice to get her out and about :) Thursday we had to go to albany to get her on our medicare, she was such a good girl, even waiting for all the paper work she didn't mind! we then took her to Lana's house where she had a big feed and change her nappy, she then did a huge spew all over lana! but thats ok, she has to get use to it as she is having her baby in March! Last night Kieran stayed in cranbrook with the boys, so me Bec, Chloe and Jazmin went to the pub for a few hours while mum and dad babysat Olivia. We had dinner and a few drinks which was lovely :) Today Paul Claire and Tianna are coming to visit which is very exciting! Kieran had to work yesterday but after the first run they had wet sheep so had to come home, he and Benny went to Albany to pick up his ute, Today he is working for half a day in Broom hill, so can't wait for him to finish anf come home :)
Well thats about it for us, I'll keep you posted!

The first day of summer has arived in typical Mount Barker way- Cold and raining... But thats ok, we have had very hot days for the last few days, good to get out of the heat. It is so amazing to be home! we have had my Brother Justin, his wife Janelle and my little niece Izzy stay for the last 3 days, they just left back to Bunbury. Janelle is amazing with a camera and does such good work with photography so we set up some scenes and took pictures of Olivia, I snuck a picture on my phone but cant wait to see how her ones turn out! We are going to take Olivia to the shops today which is very exciting! but maybe a stop off at the hospital as well as her Jaundice hasn't settled down yet and im starting to worry about it. Kieran has had to put his ute on the tow truck and off to Albany as it blew a hole in the muffler and sounds like a truck! so he is there at the moment, waitng for a loan car. I was starting to struggle feeding, with the pain and was begining to consider feeding formula if it didnt settle down as i was starting to really dread feed time, but i remebered we got a breast pump and I have started using that which has made me so much happier because neitehr of us wanted her on formula but i just couldnt stand the pain all the time, so now we are both happy! she gets real milk and i get happy boobs! Paul, Claire and Tianna are coming to stay this weekend which we are really looking forward to! will be great for them to meet Olivia :)
Hmm well thats about all that has been happening around here!

Here are the pictures i took on my phone, Can't wait to see the real ones! 



Olivia rose- 4 days old already!

Well i cant believe in 40 minutes our baby girl will be exactly 4 days old! the time has flown by, she is more and more beautiful every minute of it! she is going so well, she feeds amazingly and sleeps like a...baby? lol a good baby! her jaundice has cleared up pretty well and the wound on her head has healed itself nicely. my poor tummy is healing well too, but I still look pregnant! very devostating :( I get to go home tomorrow yay! I can't wait and Kieran is so excited to get us home I think he is tired of the hosptial! not that he can complain he isnt the one stuck here! I hate it when he leaves us I wish he would stay but he has a better nights' sleep at home,

Well thats about all for today, not a great deal to talk about happening in a hospital!

I'll be writing from home soon enough!

Day 2...or 3...or something?!

So its the 27th, my baby girl is 3 days old today! although it feels like its been 1 continuous day having only about 10 hours sleep since Tuesday! she is getting more and more beautiful every day! not alot significant has happened, well not for you to read about anyway! but exciting things for us at the moment are that she passed her hearing test with flying colours, she is a big greedy guts and feeds really well, I am able to move around well, and can do almost everything without help now, I have my drip and cathiter out and she normally sleeps well, not so good, she has jaundice but not to a point where she needs treatment, My milk is coming in so my boobs have grown about 20 cup sizes in 5 minutes and the new milk upsets her tummy so it takes longer to settle her now, I had to hlod her while she got her guthery test which was sad it really upset her, this has all been hard as Kieran worked all day yesterday and went out to celebrate last night then went fishing this morning which was a bit selfish coz i could really do with the help, but i have been pushing along on my own, I think I over did things yesterday and my wound is making me pay for it today! Mum, dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Nan, Grandad, Josh, Bec and Chloe are all coming to visit today so we have a big afternoon ahead of us, im gonna make the most of the quiet morning and hope Kieran gets here before then to spend a bit of family time with her. Well thats about it for us, I'll put up pics!!

Welcome to the world Olivia Rose xxx

I should be sleeping but I think im still on a high, Our baby girl finally arrived and it was an experience to say the least! Im not to keen to tell the whole story yet as it was a bit traumatic, but from getting my waters broken at 8:30 am on the 24th of November, getting to 4 cm with the shower and gas and air, asking for the eppidural, having that only half work... more gas and air, Lots of pushing, emergency c section baby born at 6:41pm, something goes wrong when sewing back up, I finally meet my baby an hour later, she was in the good hands of her father who was so amazing through the whole ordeal, The look on his face when he held her makes my heart melt they adore eachother, she lays there staring at him while he stares straight back, love at first sight! i think she may be a daddys girl! she is so beautiful, so big! she weighed 8 pound 9 ounces at birth and 51cm long, Named Olivia Rose Allison, We have both bonded really well with her over the past 24 hours she hardly cries, settles very quickly, feeds well and puts up with everyone having a cuddle, she is perfect.

Well im gonna make the most of her sleep, I will fill you in and lots of photos soon as!

In the Hospital 24/11/2010

I'm writing from the hospital, its 6:45am on the 23rd! I cant sleep, my morphine hasnt worn off yet and Im waiting for the doctor so i guess I'll use this time to fill in the details before i forget! Yesterday went well, to start with anyway! I arived at the hospital about 12, after going out for lunch with Kieran which was lovely, I went on a monitor for about 20 mins then my doctor gave me an examination, I was 1 and a half cm dialated, yay/! so she put the gel in and things kicked off pretty soon after! By about 6 I was having mild contractions, lasting around 40 seconds, soon after becoming 50 seconds with only around 2 to 3  minutes inbetween, quite painful but Kieran was great, he made sure i focused on other things and reasured me when i got my worst, Knowing he wouldtn't sleep properly here with me I told him to go to the unit and get a good nights rest for today, he had his phone so I could get him whenever i needed, he didnt argue that, knowing hospitals freak him out i dont think he was to keen on sleeping the night anyway! By 12 the pain was very full on so my midwife (who was amazing) decided to get the IV bung in my hand and get me to the labour room, the drip was awful, Im not normally bothered by needles, but after 3 attempts the veins in my hand just kept popping! so by the time the 4th one finally worked i was feeling a bit squeemish about it! not to mention my poor pin cushion hands! so I was excited to find out how far along i was, Only to have it hit me hard that I hadn't progressed any furthur than when we had first arived at the hospital that lunch time. I was devostated, knowing i had gone through all that pain for nothing, I hada little cry :( so she decided to give me a shot of morphine (More needles!) which worked wonders, by then it was 1 oclock, I cam back to my room and slept like a log for 4 and a half hours! This morning they checked my tummy and her head still hasnt even engaged yet, so Kim my doctor is coming at about 7 30 and we will see where it goes from there, My contractions have stated up a little again but I jsut cant wait to meet our girl!

No doubt this will be the last time I write with the beanie still in my tummy because once this morphine wears off the last thing i want is a computer! So bump in my tummy says goodbye to everyone and that she cant wait to meet you all properly!

Excited!- My last post pregnant!

It's 6:30 in the morning so I can't really talk about my day so far! I can't sleep, the tv has broken and it's raining so I'll write my blog :) Well I better start where I left off, the cramps are still there, but are so mild I think it might just be her finally dropping into my pelvis, I had one big one that I was so sure going to be the start of proper labour, but after that nothing! kind of frustrating but i know no matter what I will have her by Wednesday. 

I am so unbelievably excited for tomorrow! It's so close we get our little girl finally! even tho she made us wait 11 days longer! I think this means she is getting her naughtys out the way while she is still in my tummy and she will be a good girl for the rest of her life!... well I hope so anyway! hehe. So I'm a bit nervous, but very ready, I just cant believe it's Tomorrow, I never thought this day would actually come! I have been pregnant pretty much all year and it feels strange to know that I'm not going to be very very VERY soon!

Well what happened yesterday? We went home and Kieran mowed the lawn, I was planning to do the last little load of washing and the house would be spotless... Wrong. The Kitchen and laundry windows had been left open and the house was covered from top to bottom with moths! mostly all dead but the amount was crazy! so we had to clean the whole house again! we came back to town and didn't do a great deal, went to bed pretty early but i just couldn't sleep! so today's plans are to get a million magazines to take to the hospital, do all our washing we will need for the next few nights, Kieran is working but only for 3 runs as it has rained all night and all morning so he will have wet sheep, Head to Albany for the night, maybe have a nice dinner and movies on the couch =] then Tomorrow Kieran gets his AWFUL haircut fixed... I will get a photo of it and post it coz its actually so funny, (He did it himself) have a little waste of time around town then go to the Hosptial at lunch! By wednesday we will have a baby!!!!

Well that is about it, my last blog as a pregnant person! No doubt I won't be writing for the next week or so, I'm sure the blog will be the last thing on my mind! but I will be able to write a big exciting one all about my little girl! I will finally be able to have my perfect little family join our BIG family! who of course I should thank now for always being there for us and being so supportive! we love you all for it =]

So I guess I'll end it there, Im so excited I could find things to ramble on about for days! I'm sure You will all hear the news as soon as anything happens :)

Suprise suprise, No baby! but I am still having cramps, they havent changed much tho still very irregular and seem to getting further apart, they aren't hurting much either so I guess I'll just wait and see... So last night wasn't so bad, we ended up going out, Kieran booked dinner at 8 at a nice resraurant, although he did bring his friends alonfg it was a nice night, We missed the movies and the video shop was shut by the time we got there so we jsut went to bed, we got up and went for breakfast, we were going to go to the beach but kieran only packed jeans so we came home, it's still so hot here but more muggy than anything, luckly we have the aircon in mum and dads house. We are heading out home for the afternoon as Kieran wants to mow the lawn, not exactly the weekend i was expecting but thats ok!
Well thats about all thats happening for us, I'll keep you posted

Update...

Well I'll use this time to update whats going on,

5:45pm- Still having cramps but they are getting worse through my back, I dont think its going to be tonight but maybe just maybe tomorrow? but for all i know it still might not be for ages! As for tonights plans we were suppose to spend this weekend together as our little 2some before it becomes the 3 of us... But in typical Kieran way of doing things, he spent the day with the boys at work then in Frankland, then invited them out for dinner with us and made plans to go to the movies to watch Jackass! which we watched last week. so I changed plans and made new reservations for all of us for dinner, told kieran, and ofcourse he is running late so looks like Hungry jacks for us- Kierans specialty when it comes to things that are important to us, Well me anyway.

so for now me and beanie will just wait, see what these contractions are doing! and see if kieran ever turns up...

Ill keep you posted, maybe I will be writing from the hospital next time??!

20/11/2010- Labour?!?!??!

10:15am- So as  i was getting ready to jump in the shower i had a cramp in my tummy that felt like i had pulled a muscle, it hurt a bit but was pretty mild, it lasted around 15 seconds, then went, i had these every 5 to 10 minutes after that. Im not sure if they are contractions, so I'll keep writing thoughout the day and see what happens!

11:30am-  Still having the cramps, although they are very irregular, some are 5 minutes apart and some are up to 25 minutes apart, i havent bothered to time them or anything yet. they are not to painful but very noticeable! I messaged Kieran to let him know, he will be excited! I said not to come home from work tho because I dont think much is going to happen yet!

12:15pm-  Kieran rang, no mention of the message about the cramps, so I ask him if he got it, His reply was, "Oh yeah i got it, so what have you been up to?" Not the reaction I was hoping for! I guess not so excited then, Not much has changed still a few pains, and moving through my back a bit more now, nothing regular or to painful.

12:45pm- Have a sharp pain down my right side of my tummy, coming and going but with not much time in between, Im thinking she might just be leaning on me, still no change with the cramps tho. Knowing my luck its going to be nothing!

3:00pm  Well I went through a patch of nothing there, for maybe an hour or so, but they are back! getting a little more painful now but still nothing bad at all, Fingers crossed! Kieran is still not home from work! he has finished but he has to go from Kojonup to  frankland to home then back to town so he will be a while yet! Then we are off to albany for dinner and maybe a movie, I can't qhite wrap my head around he fact that this is our last weekend ever without being parents!

3:45pm-  So not alot has changed all day, the cramps are still here but are only a little more painful than they were this morning, and no closer together or more regular, so i guess I better wrap it up here, I'll write on a bit of paper if things start to progress and add to the blog! Wish me luck!
