Follow up appointment today

Last week at our Dr. appointment it showed on my ultrasound that I had high amniotic fluid levels and baby girl was measuring 3 weeks ahead. My dr's first thought was that I had Gestational Diabetes because when you have gestational diabetes you have bigger babies and higher fluid levels. Thankfully I had passed that test so we knew that wasn't the problem. Unfortunately that put me and baby at a higher risk for preterm labor and other issues. I am HAPPY to report that our daughter is fine and this week my fluid levels were a bit lower so for now we are in the clear. Fluid levels were 27 and now they are 23. This puts them still in a high range but in the mildly high range. Both Sean and I are extremely happy that everything is ok with our baby girl. Due to the risk involved I we also have 3D ultrasounds last week and today to check to make sure she didn't have a cleft lip. Last week they didn't get a clear picture of her upper lip because she was hiding her face. Today we got some AMAZING pictures of her face. I'm starting to agree with Sean and my mom that she looks like me. These pictures really make me even more excited and impatient to meet her!!!

Happy Halloween!

The Saturday before Halloween our friends had a party with kids invited. I wanted to wear some kind of costume and ended up making a shirt that I saw online. I knew I could make it and the supplies including the shirt ended up being $3.

Sean and I had a great time at the party and we even went to a haunted house one of the neighbors had. Sean went in but I wasn't able to because of my heart issues. I was super glad I didn't because they chased you with a chainsaw and that would have gotten my heart racing. 

Trip to NY

October 15-23 (I was 23 weeks pregnant) we flew to Rochester, NY to visit our families. We had tons planned and we were super excited to see everyone.

Sunday was my shower which was great and I saw so many people I had been missing while living in Washington. I had a great time and got so many cute things for our baby girl!
Then Friday we had Jason and Melissa Larkin's wedding which was beautiful and very fun! I even got my hair did :)

Last but not least we had a surprise 80th birthday for my grandma. It was awesome to see how shocked she was that we invited so many people. It was easy getting them to come since she is such a sweet and caring person.

 Sean and I had an amazing time in NY and we were sad to leave. It's so great to come and see family but we wish we were living closer because we miss you all so much.
