Surprise!!!!

Kinsley Kate is one lucky little girl! Saturday night we had a surprise baby shower. I really did not know anything about it. All of my family and friends came and brought Miss Kinsley some of the most precious gifts. We had a wonderful time and I was so glad to get to see everyone. Here are some pics!

Update

Tonight I decided to take on a very difficult task! Paint my toe nails. I have been begging Kevan to do them ever since I was put on bedrest, but it has not happen yet and I was tired of waiting. I started out trying to just do a french manicure...What a disaster; I could not get them straight! So then I took it all off and started over. Now they are red. Kevan looked over several times laughing because I was having such a hard time. He did ask if I needed his help, but I was being stubborn and since he did not do it in the first place I told him NO! Two hours later my toenails are painted and my back is killing me. I just could not get around my belly to paint them. Anyway-lesson learned (never get fat!) Simple tasks become more difficult!

Yesterday Kinsley and I went back to L and D. This was the third time this week. The first two for steroid shots and this one because she was not moving much at all. It has made me paranoid since they told me my amniotic fluid was a little low. So when she has a lazy day it makes me worried. I did the kick counts all day like the nurse said to, but was only getting to like 3 or 4 every 2 hours. So the nurse sent me to L and D to do a NST just in case. When we got there I was the only one there. I can't believe it. It is usually a mad house. Kinsley's heart beat was good and she did move a little...not a whole lot; but then she got the hiccups!!! This girl gets fighting mad when they put all those belts on to monitor everything. So between that and the hiccups she was definitely moving now. I guess she learned her lesson not to be lazy and scare me because she has been moving most of the day today! The nurse comes back tomorrow to give me a shot and monitor Kinsley again.

I can't believe that Christmas is almost here! YAY!! Thanks to every one's help all my Christmas shopping is almost done. We will get Tori Friday and have her for a week. I think this year she will actually enjoy getting presents! What a fun time of the year!

What a busy day!

Today we had a check-up. The first one in three weeks; it seemed to take forever to get here because I have been going every two weeks since the very beginning. The day started out CRAZY! First April came to do my hair which I desperately needed...I called her in tears almost. My hair had not been colored since July and I had not had a hair cut in like 12 weeks. It made me feel so much better-I was so afraid that I was going to have this baby and my hair would look horrible.Then they came and cleaned the house-It looks great! I was pampered all morning. Next, agenda is my toes. We were going to go today since I had permission to get out of the house, but we did not have time...so I guess Kevan will have to do it. I love doctor Bailey and everyone in his office, but we waited forever today and Mr. Impatient was with me. He is not really that bad but 1:40-4:00 is kinda crazy.First we got to see Miss. Kinsley she was sticking out her tongue.She is sitting very low so we did not get any pictures that were any good. I think she is about getting to big to get good ones. She weighed 3 pounds 13 ounces..To most people that does not seem huge, but Kailynn weighed 1 pound 15 ounces so that means that Kinsley is about to double her in size (huge to us)! Then we waited to see if anything has changed...Everything was about the same;which is great! Since there is a chance of pre-term labor they decided that steroid shots would be best. So off to the hospital. It did not take too long..It was only another shot in the booty-This one hurt though!Tomorrow we will go back to get one more. After 34 weeks they feel like the baby would not need steroid shots so this will be the only ones we get. We are getting close- 30 weeks Friday!

Happy Birthday Tori


Tori turned 2 on Friday! On Sunday we had a Barney Party! Barney is Tori's favorite...She will watch Barney all day if you let her. Since I am bedrest Kevan was the party planner. He did an amazing job....I was actually a little worried because I am picky picky picky, but Kevan had everything together and made everything look wonderful.We had a surprise guest. Barney even came to the party (I really thought she would love him) WRONG! She screamed to the top of her lungs! Eventually, Tori decided that she could be beside Barney;if someone was holding her, but when Barney tried to touch her forget it-she screamed again. I think she actually kinda liked him a little in the end, but was very glad to see him go. All night Tori would point to the door and say Barney like she was going to cry again...We had to tell her over and over that he left and was not coming back. Oh well....I guess we will know from now on that she only likes Barney on T.V.
