Placenta Previa


I just hung up the phone with my doctor. It is final. I am having a C-section. I have placenta previa, and it just doesn't want to fix itself. I feel a bit robbed, I have to admit. But like so many of my friends and family have offered, I need "to be grateful that he will arrive here safely."

He will be here on June 25th, 2011. That is, unless I go into labor earlier than that. We'll see. For now, I am trying to focus on being grateful, excited, and extremely blessed to have 3 beautiful children.

I am also trying hard to deal with my nesting that is kicking in. Anyone need a closet reorganized?

Mother's Day on the Ranch

We took a trip down to California over Mother's day weekend. It was just what the doctor ordered..a lot of sunshine, relaxing time with family, and FUN. This baby will be here in no time, so we are glad we got one last trip in before his arrival.
