Delivery Plans...

So I don't have a new official due date but we will do a c-section on or about the 23rd of Sept. if he hasn't come by then. So pray for us that our little Howard (that is his womb name) will decide to come before then and that I don't have do end up having a c-section. (In my dreams right?) Anyways, all the wedding and mission stuff is over with as of today. My brother went into the MTC today and things should start to slow down. I couldn't help but post this picture of him at my sister's wedding last weekend... this is totally his funny personality that I will miss. So with all this free time we have now anyone up for a movie night or anything?

We should really decide on a name...

Trenton Lee Babcock?.... our little guy was 3lbs 11 oz. 2 weeks ago when we had this ultra sound. Everything looks great and I go back tomorrow and hopefully we will get more details on when I'll have him.

New Due Date?

So I went to my appointment on Monday and while there the PA measured me and I am still 2 weeks ahead, so I asked if I could get an ultra sound (I'll scan those pictures ASAP) to check the due date and I am measuring 11 days early according to the ultra-sound. Potentially then my due date could be September 19th and I could be having a baby by early September if they induce me early so I can try for a VBAC. All these ifs are making my head spin. Oh well, hopefully our next appointment with the doctor in 2 weeks we will find out more delivery details. Stay tuned...

Update

So if we thought our summer would be boring and easy since Mark is able to work from home then we were wrong!!! We have been so busy with family reunions and 2 weddings. Mark's brother Tim is getting married to a great girl... Ariel, and my sister is marrying a guy named Justin that has been her friend (and our families are still friends) since they were like both 15 (sweet isn't it?). Oh and they are getting married a week apart from each other. So apart from getting ready for our little guy to make his appearance (I think he will be born mid Sept.) we are also running around attending events for our siblings.
July- 4 birthdays, Conner's endowments, Baby's room (we want it ready before we don't have time with all the wedding stuff)
August- Corinne's bridal shower in Pocatello, 3 birthdays, Tim's wedding in Washington, Corinne's endowments & wedding in Rexburg, Conner's farewell and mission
September-BABY!!!
Ahhhh! I love being busy though and it will make time go by faster. We couldn't be happier for our siblings. Oh and I love all of my friends but I am sorry I am not very social lately... busy.

******Girls' Night******

Anyone interested in a Girls' Night on Thursday? They have some good movies at the cheap theater or we could go out for drinks and dessert or something. Let me know, and spread the word! Any questions? Call me!

Have I mentioned that the Flu Stinks?

Ugh! I got it, luckily Mark had some anti-nausea pills left over but man heart burn can kill too! I got it really bad because I am prego and I had been throwing up stomach acids all day. But it is done and over with! I am back to my usual... 75%, Mark is back to his 90% and Daniel is back to his 156.5% energy levels (hows that for a random but true number?). Anyways we are on our way to SLC again this week because my brother is graduating and Mark has some work stuff to do. Can't wait to be distracted! I got to go to work today at the gym and get some stuff done and if was so nice to get out of this "man house". I love my boys but I need to chat with girls every once in a while too! So...Girls' Night next week ladies? I am very serious. How about Wednesday? (Let me know what you think)
Hope all is well with you, thanks for all of your Flu sympathy...I hope nobody else gets the nasty bug.
I was so glad to hear that people approve of Tallahassee as a mission. It is going to be hard to send my brother off while I am so over emotional right now. Thanks! It helps to know he's not going somewhere scary.

Oh I said I would try to have some good news this time...
Daniel is Binki Free!!!! We "broke" it last Monday in front of him because he had bitten a hole in it and he thinks that is gross, so instead of getting him a different one I took some scissors and cut the nipple off in front of him and told him it was broken and gave it back to him. He got this look like..."darn it" but now he understands that it isn't a big deal and he doesn't need it. There, I actually accomplished both New Years Resolutions before the year was half way over, hah! How's that for being positive?

New Year's Resolution #1 Potty Training...done

New Year's Resolution #2 Go Binki Free....done

Busy, Busy and...Sick, Sick

Two weeks ago I got Strep Throat and was feeling pretty crumby, then last week Mark got sick and couldn't stop throwing up because he was dehydrated and had donated blood. I ended up taking him into the ER Monday morning at 1 am and they had to give him fluids and anti-nausia. It took him about 4 more days to feel back to normal. Now this week we went to the Splash Park in Rexburg and Daniel was being really whiney and just wanted me to hold him. Sure enough after being there for about an hour trying to cheer him up... he puked. I should mention that I cannot handle puke right now. Mark puked while we were driving home last week and I pulled over in-time but then after I smelled and heard it I lost my cookies out the driver's side door. So needless to say I handed Daniel over to Mark this afternoon because I just can't take it! Fun huh?
So in between all these fun going-ons we drove a moving van down to my parents rental house in SLC and helped load it up, finished some work on Mark's parents deck in SLC(with the help of our wonderful brothers, Mark built his parents a new deck a few weeks ago) then drove back that night and helped them unload it here in Rigby the next day. Memorial Day was spent in Pocatello and that was fun, and tomorrow my parents are bringing up hopefully the last load of their stuff and we will help them unload it on Saturday. Wow. Did you get all that? So pray for me that I will not get this flu bug, the last time I got the flu was when I was prego with Daniel and I can tell you that is about the worst thing ever!!!
On a good note!....My younger brother, Conner received his mission call today and he is going to the Tallahassee, Florida mission in August. Yipppeee! We are so proud of him. I was hoping he would be around to see our baby before he left and maybe even help bless him, but I am just too happy for Conner right now to wish anything more. Well hopefully my next post will be a little more happy. Sorry.
