Erin's latest Prego Appt.

I had a Doctor appointment on Monday the 14th. Same day as my friend Danielle's birthday and my Nephew, Daniel's too. Happy Birthday guys! The appointment went good. I am now a lot heavier and the most that I have ever weighted in my life. I am not saying how much. I guess the routine is, pee and a cup, give some blood and we'll see you in a month. I am really happy that everything is going so wonderful. My legs are not cramping any more...so really other than my ever stretching skin I am great. Next appointment I will find out what we are having. Which is in about five weeks. Then I can buy pink or blue. How exciting. I also got to hear the heart beat again...and the nurse found it really quick, so that means that everything is going great.
I am starting to feel fluttering inside, so I know that our baby is active already. This whole baby thing is still so surreal. I can't wait...time is going by so very fast too.

A quick heartbeat can indicate a GIRL baby. At least that is what our doctor told us when I was pregnant with Aliya! :) I am really happy for you guys. I love that we all have the blog thing to keep in touch.

Ohhh I hope what Amy says is true! I think you already know, but that is pretty cool still. I can't wait to find out, then I can start buying special stuff for him or her. YAY!!!

Love the mouse post! I would be feeling the same way, get that thing out of here. We have a TON of them around our house because of all the fields. Sounds like the pregnancy thing is going good, setting up the babys room is so much fun!

January 5th, 2009!

Cheryl Love Christopherson was born on 01-05-09, weighing 6 pounds 11 ounces, and 18 inches long. Happy Birthday, we love you! We went to the hospital at 2a.m. Monday morning to be induced for labor, they gave me Patocin to get it going...I was already dilated to 3 centimeters at that time. At around 11 or so I received the wonderful Epidural, Yeah! I still was not progressing, and next thing we knew Cheryl was not handling the contractions very well. They had to turn the Patocin off and turned the Epidural off...because I couldn't feel my legs at all. The doctor said if we don't progress and the contractions keep bugging the baby then we would have to do a C-section. Great! I thought...get this over with already....I don't care how! Well, I didn't have to have a C-section after all and by 5 p.m. I was finally in full dilation. Witch meant...Time to push, I pushed for 2 hours and there she was, a beautiful little girl at 7:18 p.m. What a long day, to say the least! Ther...

When will she arrive?

My doctor has said that my due date is between January 5th to the 10th! I would like to know what everyone thinks when I will have this baby. Take a guess and whoever is the closest then we will name Cheryl's teddy bear after you! We are definitely ready now! We have a cradle, made by my Dad and also a great car seat and stroller finally. I think we were supposed to get that first, but oh well. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Campbell. Cheryl can now come home from the hospital and sleep in the cradle. XOXO-Erin

Our Baby Girl's Room

The Baby room is getting more attention now. I have decorated the walls and put new bedding in the crib. I thought about painting the walls but I think it looks better with the original cream color. I really didn't want to much going on in there. She is one lucky girl to have all this attention to her room. If you didn't notice from the pictures we have decided to name her Cheryl Love Christopherson. She is named after her Grandma Christopherson that has passed away from breast cancer. She was a amazing woman and so little Cheryl has some big shoes to fill. My next project is to make some cute little dresses for her. We can't wait for her arrival. XOXO-Erin
