Update on me & baby landgren

I tried to scan a couple pictures of my ultrasound without much luck - I'm sorry :( I will try to figure out another way to get picture of my little one on here.

I had a doc appt today - and all is good. BP was 100/72, and they had me go in for another ultrasound b/c baby's heart rate was too erratic on the doppler. Her heart rate was 171/bpm today and she was moving all around punching and kicking her legs out. I caught some type of horrible bug this weekend and spent Sunday & Monday pretty much sleeping and throwing up. I have already been pretty sick with this baby, and adding the flu to things just makes it so much worse. No wonder I am down in weight gain (not complaining here) since the start of my pregnancy. I was hoping the barfing would go away by 18 weeks.. but so far I am not that lucky. I am just glad that the baby looks healthy and she seems to be growing right on track.

Tentative C-Section day is Tuesday, April 28, 2009. I might see if I can push it back a couple days (April 30/May 1) so Erik doesn't have to spend his week off work in the hospital with me. We will see at the date gets closer.

Oh - for those of you who have asked - YES, baby girl landgren does have a name.. but we have decided to keep some element of surprise this time and keep her name a secret until she is born. I can tell you had she been a boy - we were going to name him Everett Jude.

That is all I have for now - I should have some cute pictures from Thanksgiving to post of Miss Addison next week. Addy is great - she has been having a couple of rough nights with the teething.. but overall.. she is a trooper!!

Hope you and yours have a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!! Its hard to believe the Holidays are already upon us.

The Results are in............

Erik & I are happy to annouce that Miss Addison will be getting a little sister in late April :) We are THRILLED and so happy that she looks healthy & perfect. She cooperated today and we found out within about 10 minutes. I will try to post pictures later - but I just wanted to update with our happy news.

I am already on cloud 9 just thinking about my little girls :)

We have a tooth!!

Mark your calendars- November 20, 2008 Addison got her first tooth!! I couldn't believe it. I picked her up from Barb's and sure enough - she has a bottom tooth poking out!! WOOHOO!!

Just wanted to update with the good news! I will update once we know the sex of baby landgren tomorrow!! Please keep your fingers crossed baby cooperates and lets us know who is in there!!

TGIF!

Pictures from the last couple days.

Looking cute all bundled up ready for daycare. She is really good about keeping her hats on!

Tuesday night after her bath. This is her new look when you ask her to "smile".

Addy Shea this morning - asking for more cheerios. Yep - 16m and not a tooth in her mouth. We just hope she gets teeth before her little sister/brother makes their debut in April. However she has been a tad on the cranky side lately.. so maybe that is a sign that she is teething!

Tate & Jack - Life in Dubai

Here is a picture of my little brother Jack & sister Tate in their school uniforms. They attend GEMS World Academy in Dubai. We miss them VERY MUCH, but are happy to hear that they are adjusting well, and love school. Tate is learning Arabic and can already write four letters, and say as many words! They have already made many friends - and I am sure they are enjoying the 85 degree days and having the gulf right in their backyard!! WE MISS YOU GUYS!!

Here are just a couple pictures from the other morning before we left for daycare. Doesn't she look so grown up?!?

Asking me for more Cheerios. My kid LOVES cheerios!

On our way to Aidan & Lleyton's house on Halloween. She was so excited to be walking all around outside.

Addison helping Erik and I hand out candy after she was done trick or treating ;) (No we didn't let her eat ANY of that candy!)
