40 Week Belly Photos!

Taken tonight...10/3

The end is here....well, only on calendar.

Well, today I am 40 weeks (based off my second due date...if not, it is Monday 10/5) and still freaking pregnant!

So, I went to my appt on Thurs, NO PROGRESS!!! BOOOOO! :( I danced like crazy at the wedding and walked, but no baby! Damn! Damn! Damn! This girl is stubborn already.

But, we did schedule our induction day for Tues night at 8pm. If all goes as planned, we will have little Kayla in our arms first thing Wednesday morning! YAY! I can not believe it! That means her birthday will be October 7, 2009! AHHHHH!!! After all this time, we will finally get to hold her in our arms. Just thinking about it brings chills!

As I sit here and type, I am having contractions about every 8-10 minutes. I am hoping I can still go into labor myself without the induction...so I am keeping track. They are not getting more painful though, so I think it is just pre-labor. But still, a great sign!

Here we are on Thursday night (10/1) at the grandparents house. Grandma P decided to make us a delicious dinner so I didn't have to cook! I love being spoiled! LOL!

I will take some photos of my belly later this weekend and post! I can't believe we are going to have our little girl within 4 days! AHHHH!!!! I am getting a lil bit nervous now!!!

Oh, I would like to give a huge birthday shout it to my Dad and Auntie Lisa!! Happy Happy Happy Birthday!!!!!

Beautiful Wedding!!!

Well, what an event the Duke & Duchess wedding turned out to be! Fortunately for all of us, it was baby-free! LOL!

We started out at the rehearsal dinner on Thursday night. It was awfully hot, but gorgeous! Then we went to the Old Spaghetti Factory in Downtown Fullerton...YUMMYYYY!!! We had a great time. Jen & Greg were so excited for thier wedding! Here are all the bridemaids and me and my hot husband:

Then on Friday night, we went down to Fullerton to stay the night at the hotel before the wedding. The bridal party went out to Red Robin for dinner then came back and had a FUN night at the hotel bar. Let's say that a few people got a lil toasted. Not to mention any names (but their last names are Crespin). I honestly wish it could have been me :( Needless to say, it was a blast! We were all joking and laughing, telling stories. Great times!

The wedding day!! We woke up and got our lovely bride to be some breakfast. She just glowed with excitment! Jen bought all the bridesmaids the cutest black satin robes with our names on it..check us out all beautified! Jen looked absolutely gorgeous! THE MOST STUNNING BRIDE EVER!

On our way to the wedding, it was Dave & Patti, me, Jen & LaToya. Dave, of course puts on this sappy music which he thought Jen would like bc she was getting married in less than an hour. Of course, knowing how we are we make him change it to hiphop and we all start rapping and dancing in the backseat! Typical us! :)

The moment everyone waits for....the ceremony. It was seriously so gorgeous and perfect outside. We could not have gotten more lucky with the weather (thank goodness!). It was so awesome to be standing as her bridesmaid watching Greg get all teary eyed and the big smile on everyone's faces! I loved it! It was the most heartfelt ceremony....everyone was in tears. I love witnessing true love! Enjoy the photos!

The night was finished off with toasts to remember, delicious food and cake and laughs and smiles to be remembered always!

Congratulations newlyweds! Hope you guys had a blast in Maui!

38 Weeks!

Will you take a look at the Baby Countdown! It's almost to the end!! Well, here I am...two more weeks to go!! YAY! I have a feeling this one is going to show up either on time or a lil bit late. I don't really feel any pressure, I think I get a contractions every now and again, but who knows! I am feeling great though! I honestly am one lucky pregnant girl! The only major side effects are my swollen feet! My toes look like sausages!

Let's see...this Saturday is Jen & Greg's wedding! Woooowhoo! That is my date, once I get passed the 26th then labor can come anytime! We are all so excited. It is going to be beautiful!

OH! The best news ever....RYAN MADE SWAT!!!! YAY!!! The youngest cop ever at Redondo to make SWAT. That's because he is so awesome! Oh, and he looks sooooooo hot in his uniform. I will try to sneak a pic! I am so unbelievably proud of my husband!

Well, I will just keep baking Kayla in the meanwhile! LOL! Don't forget to view the post below this with the video of Kayla's nursery....FINALLY FINISHED!!!

Kayla's Finished Nursery!!

36 Weeks 3 Days!

OMG! There is less than 4 weeks left til I give birth to our little Kayla Jade!!! AHHHH!!! We are sooo excited! We put together most of the baby gear (swing, bouncer, pack n play, stroller...etc) and now our house looks baby-fied! HAHAH! We are realizing that our house will NEVER look the same again!

I went to the dr today for my weekly appt...everything is great! Measuring at 37 weeks and her heartbeat great! I think I may have dropped a little bit bc I have been feeling increased pains in my lower belly and it kinda looks like it in the pic...what do you think? Other than that, I think I may have had a contraction this morning while I was walking for coffee. I actually had to stop walking. But no pressure or anything. Next week we start cervix checks (how fun)...so we will see if I am dilated or effaced at all!

34 weeks 2 day Belly!!!

Look at my belly grow!! Kayla is doing very well! Still doing martial arts like crazy! MY UTERUS IS NOT YOUR JUNGLE GYM! Lol.

I can't believe there are only 6 weeks left!! AHHHH!!! She hasn't dropped yet, but I can definitely feel some pulling down...so I think it's going to happen soon! Still no stretch marks, still backaches, still hard for me to roll over and get up! I feel like an old man! Grunting all the time! Hahaha!
