The migrating PLACENTA!!!

Good good news this morning everyone... We just got back from my second ultrasound to check and see if the placenta has moved... and it has! She said it is only .1 cm from where it is considered safe and she is sure that over the next 13 weeks it will move! So, yeah! I am so relieved to not have a C section... although now, I have to push this baby out of me! YIKES!! Don't know what is scarier. Although, now I won't feel like I am being jipped out of the opportunity... I know all of you just thought, opportunity hell... but when you are told you can't, it sucks. So, anyhow, I feel good and excited about it. They also got a good look at her little heart and spine, which she wouldn't hold still for last time, and they all look great! So, we are feeling awesome about things this morning. She also gave out a great big yawn while we were looking at her face. She is already such a little doll. She has the cutest little nose and her lips look so cute... just like her mom's. :) Now we can really kick it into high gear with the nursery because it is totally positive she is a girl now! Spread eagle... yep, even I could tell. So, let's start shopping.... She is definitely on her way!

babies babies babies

My sister in law Aubry had her little boy on Friday morning. His name is Jaxon and weighed in at a whopping 9lbs 11 oz... Are you kidding me... Let's hope this isn't a trend in the Aguirre family. When he was born, he had some problems breathing on his own, due to one of his lungs collapsing so they had to put him on a breathing machine. He was also having problems keeping his glucose levels up mostly due to the fact that they couldn't feed him with the breathing machine... They were trying to feed him with the IVs but he kept blowing the lines, so around 2 am that night they flew him to Primary Children's where they were able to put him on a PIC line. This afternoon they were able to take him back off the ventilator and were going to start feeding him. Aubry finally got released today from the hospital and we are so happy she now gets to go be close to her new baby! They say that he will probably be there for a few weeks, but things will work their way out. We love you baby Jaxon! Keep moving in the right direction. Sim and Aub, your family is in our prayers and thoughts!

We also were at the IMC yesterday to see Cassandra. She started having contractions on Thursday night. They have been able to get her contractions to stop but she will be there until she has the babies. She is 32 weeks tomorrow, which is AWESOME for triplets. I am so proud of her. She looks great and I can't wait to see those babies in her belly! Keep "em cookin Cass! Two more weeks would be great news!

Look at all the new fun friends Little Lilly will have to play with...... so fun:)

Homesick

Last Thursday we left early in the morning and headed north towards Logan! I was so homesick to see everyone so we decided to make it a family outing! It was a blast. We were able to visit my girls at the salon and see a few clients as well. We were able to stop and see Liz and Jason's new baby girl and take a ride out to Paradise to see the Normans. I was so happy to see Carly and apparently she was happy to see me too. She was standing at the front window waiting for us pounding on the glass when I got out of the car. I cried when we had to leave her. We were definitely best friends in Heaven. We also made a stop at USU to visit Carrie and check out the campus... Danny loved it and we both had the chills when we got out of the car there. We now know that we are making the right decision. Danny also got his first Utah State shirt along with True Aggie chap sticks for all of us and Aggie ice cream to boot. Thanks Carrie! It was great seeing you! We went to my sister Kim's house, which was the only thing getting the girls through the long day of visits, and hung out for a bit. The girls love their cousins. Danny had not been to her house before so it was fun to let him see where they lived. She kept the girls for us for a few hours and Danny and I went to dinner with Rose and Jeff at CAFE SABOR!!! Totally hit the spot. 2 diet cokes and a basket of chips and salsa later, we picked up the girls and headed home. It was a great day! SO good to see all of you! Can't wait to be back in Cache Valley... DEFINITELY HOME TO ME!!!!

26 weeks and counting!

side shot!
Here is a pic of my growing belly! I am 26 weeks and counting now! If they end up taking baby Lilly at 37 weeks that means we only have 11 left! I can hardly believe that. We are going in for another ultrasound on Wednesday to see if my placenta has moved at all. I am hoping, but not letting myself count on it. I will also be SUPER excited to make positive that she is a she and really start getting the nursery ready for her. Her movements are stronger and you can actually see my belly move now, but they are a little less frequent... My DR said that her space is getting smaller so she can't move as easily. I went in for my 4 week check up last Wednesday and found out that I have a UTI which is no fun, guess that explains the cramps the last few days. I started on an antibiotic and go back on Friday to check on it again and make sure it is gone. I didn't know that any kind of infection can make you go into labor, so no wonder he made such a big deal out of it. Who knew. Anyhow, all is well on the baby front and I am LOVING the cooler weather! Not a SINGLE complaint from me about it! It is an answer to this mother's prayers!

Crazy week on 7500 South

Well, this week is one to go in the books. Last Sunday I woke up with an awful sinus cold thing going on... My ears ached like no other, my head ached because it was full of pressure in my sinuses and I honestly felt like crap. Danny and I stayed home from church and I slept most of the day away. On Monday things were not to much better and my ears had been draining some kind of gross all through the night, so I told Danny that before I went to work for the day, I was going to go to the DR. I was positive I had a sinus infection. I get them all the time and it felt pretty classic to the symptoms, only 10 times worse. My dr. wasn't in Monday, so I saw the other DR in the practice. To my "WHAT? SERIOUSLY?" it was not a infection. He said that everything looked red and swollen, but not infected. He said that due to the increase in blood while you are prego, any added pressure can make it feel like your head will explode. What can I take to help... "nothing really". Sorry. So, as the week continued, my left leg started to really get sore. I have gotten some serious varicose veins from my mother during this pregnancy and I started to get a big purple, blue and red spot behind my knee, which started to get hot and really tender. By Friday it was killing me, so after talking to my mom about it, she is the expert on blood clots, I decided that I better call the DR. When I called they said my DR was not in again today, so I needed to come in and be seen by the other DR AGAIN!!! 2X's in one week... HOW STUPID DO I FEEL!!! Anyhow, it was a clot, not in my deep veins though. Now, I get to wear those LOVELY ted hose they told me everyday, but I promised Danny I would do it every other day. During the summer honestly, every day! NO WAY!!! You will be coming to visit me in a mental institution. We also found out on Thursday night that it will take Danny 4 full years at the U to get his Mech Eng degree... not all of his credits will transfer from BYU. We were so bummed... So, we contacted my sister who works with the ENG department at USU. She did some leg work for us and we found out that it will only take us 3 years if we do it there... which they have the best engineering program ever, so I AM SO SO SO SO SO SO STOKED!!!!!!! I get to move back to LOGAN!!! YEAH!!!!!!! Can you tell I am so happy. We have one year here at SLCC to get the rest of the lower classes he can get and then we will start at USU fall semester 2010. WAHOO! So, it has been a whirl wind week at our house. Let's hope the rest of the summer doesn't follow suite...

Also, the baby is getting quite the personality. In the morning when the alarm goes off and Danny rolls over to snuggle me and starts talking... she will wake up and start kicking his arm around me. It is so cute. I think she knows her Daddy's voice already. Also, this morning when Kadee came and got in bed with me, the second she started to talk baby Lilly woke up again and was going wild in there. It is amazing, there is really a little human in there. I can't wait to meet you sweet girl!

Kadee's Fieldtrip

On Wednesday I was asked to help out with Kadee's kindergarten field trip to the zoo. It was so fun. I will be honest... I have had the worst sinus cold and being prego can't take anything that really works, hadn't slept for about three nights in a row, and had just been to the zoo on Friday with the girls. I was not really to excited about chasing a handful of 5 year olds around the zoo. BUT IT WAS SO FUN!!! We had an awesome morning. I think that Kadee's favorite part about the whole thing was the ride on the big yellow bus. She thought that was great! We need to live somewhere next year that she can ride that bus everyday. She has grown up so much this last year and I am so thankful that she has become such a good helper. She is always running upstairs or downstairs to grab something for me. I know that she will help so much when the baby is born. I am so proud of her and the girl that she is becoming. Thanks for being you Kadee!

Funny? I don't think so...

Ever since Kam has turned three she has got some SERIOUS attitude. I am not sure what it is about. Last Friday her and I honestly had the worst day ever. By the time Danny got home from work we were both in tears and Kam was confined to the stool in her room with no toys or tv for the rest of the night... I HAD IT!!! Well, I thought that this week would be MUCH better than last, but the attitude is still there. When I say no, she either rolls her eyes at me, turn on the fake cry, or does it anyways. Yesterday was filled with her coloring on the fridge with a blue marker, the ottoman with a red pen, alot of "no, I don't have to.", and most of the day was spent on the stool. When we had a talk about why she has been so naughty last night, I asked her why she had colored on the fridge and the couch, she knows it is wrong... She just looked me dead in the eyes and said, "cause I think it is funny." My thought, I will show you funny you little... not appropriate for the blog. I WANT THE TERRIBLE TWOS BACK!!!! THREE HAS BEEN AWFUL IN THE TWO WEEKS WE HAVE BEEN HERE!!!
