Another Tanner Adventure


We have decided that Tanner really likes attention :) The same day that we had the 4D ultrasound, apparently Tanner decided he still needed to get some attention. I woke up around 1:30 and had some bleeding. We thought this was over since it hasn't happened since February. Since it has been so long since it has happened I decided to just go ahead and head to the hospital. Thank goodness it was Wednesday night and Ricky is off on Thursdays. We got in a room around 3 and they hooked me and Tanner up to the monitors and we waited for the ultrasound tech to come and make sure that everything looked good. Tanner did not stop moving the whole entire time we were there. I think he liked to hear himself on the monitor :) Everything on the ultrasound looked good but then they said I was having contractions. They were mild and I didn't have a clue, didn't feel a thing. They said at 28 weeks we had to get them stopped though. They took some blood and hooked me up to an IV. We got fluids for about an hour and then had to wait to see the doctor on duty. It was a doctor I had not seen yet but she was great, just like all the others we have seen throughout this crazy abnormal pregnancy. They said they contractions had stopped so we were getting to go home but I had to follow up with my doctor the next day and I needed to go home and stay in bed for the remainder of the day. Not a problem! I only got 2 hours of sleep that night and we did not leave the hospital until around 8 that morning. 
However, Daddy never has problems sleeping while we are there :)


I followed up with my doctor and we had another ultrasound. Everything still looks fine and Tanner is 2 pounds 7 ounces!! :) I finally got my results back from the glucose test and I passed but they said barely! So I was concerned with Tanner being overweight. He is only 32% in weight so she said that was good, better to be lower than higher. So looks like Tanner is growing right on track. I have gained about 10 pounds at this point. If we don't have anymore problems I will go back in 2 weeks and we will get another ultrasound. 10 more weeks. I am hoping he has had enough attention for now and maybe he can just be calm the next 10 weeks :) I can't believe it will be time in 10 weeks! 


Of course we bought more clothes, whats new :)


Guess who picked this one out?? like father like son lol :)

4D Ultrasound

Today mom and I went for a 4D ultrasound of Tanner! He was being a little stubborn and did not want to take his hands away from his sweet face but we still got to see him and he is so sweet already! I can't wait to see him outside of my belly :) Here are some of the pictures they captured for us.


Sweet face :)

Smiling :)

3rd Trimester!

Well, we finally made it! I can't believe we are already starting the 3rd trimester. It is amazing I have already made it through 6 months and now there are only 3 more to go! WOW! In less than 90 days, we are going to have a baby in the house and be responsible for a human being for the rest of our lives. It still doesn't feel real. 
Today was Baby's first Easter even if he is still in my belly :)


Daddy is already friends with the Easter Bunny :)


Daddy and the Easter Bunny did a good job :)


Mommy was very excited to get something too! 


This cute guy made all kinds of noise!


And he pooped out candy haha



How sweet is Daddy :) 


I am thinking after this Baby's name is officially Tanner, once you say it and write it it is hard to change your mind. :) We are still open for a new one but this is only the 2nd name we have agreed on so more than likely we won't find another one we agree on. 


Of course "Tanner" needed some new clothes for Easter too :)) 






We finally got the dresser in the nursery too so here are some updated pictures in there ... 


This dresser was in my nursery when I was a baby :)


Mom put this in there when I was a baby and it's still there :)


Doc painted this picture and I always loved it but had nowhere to put it! Now it will fit perfect in Tanners room :)

Date night :)

Nothing really to this post just wanted to add a picture from a date night we had :) We probably won't have many of these for a while after Baby M gets here :)


26 weeks ... fishing and nursery!

We went fishing Sunday and had so much fun! This was Baby M's first fishing trip :) We even caught a fish. Daddy caught 5! I will need to invest in a maternity bathing suit VERY soon! I didn't plan on it being that hot but I was very glad I had my bathing suit on. Baby M also got his first sunburn that day! OUCH! I have one red belly!

It was a beautiful day :)





 Baby's first fish :) That little fish was heavy, I thought he was going to break the pole!




 Our fish :)


I also did some work in Baby's room this week. It still has a long way to go but I am very pleased with how it is going so far :)


Buttons loves to hang out in here :)



The bassinet has been in our family for a long time! Baby M will be a 4th generation for it, along with several other family members. I think the story is my Nanny traded some chickens for it for my Mino :) Now we just gotta get Great Mino to make a new cover for it for Baby M :)


I was rocked in this rocking chair when I was a baby :) I love all the history of the furniture we are using...much better than some new stuff that has no story.


I keep forgetting about this drawer below the crib! We haven't gotten the dresser in here yet so it is coming in handy!
