Avree Joy Farrell

Just thought I would add Avree stats!!! We had a beautiful unmedicated birth on December 6, 2006 at 11:15am. Avree Joy Farrell weighed 8lbs 12ozs and was 20 in long! She is so beautiful and I think she looks just like her mommy!!!!

1 day past my due date...

And still no Avree yet!!! Alot of you have been asking so I thought I would post to let everyone know that she is still hanging on. Pray for patience because mine is running VERY thin!!!!! I am tired of being pregnant but mostly I WANT TO MEET AVREE AND HOLD HER!!!!!! Hopefully it will be sometime this week!!! Hopefully!!

6 days

Only 6 more days til my due date!!! She is so going to decide to come on Thursday when we have all this bad weather headed here!!! Be praying for us!!!

The girls ask me everyday if Avree is coming today or not!! LOL!!!! SOON...VERY SOON!!!

13 days and counting....

Well, I have 13 days from today until my due date, but it seems that this little one may come sooner!! I have been having lots of contractions lately....ALL DAY today. So hopefully in the next couple of days we will have a precious baby in our arms!

27 Days to Go....

Well, I have 27 days to go before my due date! I am hoping to maybe meet her a little sooner than that!! Went to my 36 week appt and there are some small changes but nothing big! She is head down and in postion! We are getting really excited and trying to get everything ready for her arrival!! Be thinking about us in the next month!!

Checking In

It's been awhile since I posted anything so I thought I would just let everyone know that I am almost 29 weeks along and doing pretty good. Been really tired lately! I found out on Friday that I am going to have to start taking some iron pills and change my diet a bit. Maybe that will get my energy back up! Other than that I am feeling good and feeling lots of kicks and bumps and every little move this little one makes!! I CAN'T wait for our precious baby to get here!! The girls are getting really excited and can't wait to meet thier new sister! David and I have our birthing classes coming up the first weekend in October with our awesome doula!!!! I can't wait for that because we never took a class with the other two!!! This will be a whole new experience for us!!!

It's Really a GIRL!!!!

Well, we had another Sono yesterday and that it turns out that the baby was playing tricks on us.....It's really a GIRL!!!!! Her name is going to be Avree so that we stay in tradition with our "EE"!! LOL!! So in December we will have Kalee, Gracee, and Avree!!!!! We are SUPER SURPRISED and EXCITED!!!!!!

It's A.......

It's A......... Current mood: excited
BOY!!!!
They are only about 90% sure since it is still pretty early but if you saw the pic I did you would say 100! His name will be Collin. Not sure of the middle name yet but we will pick one!!! We are SUPER excited!!

Baby's Heartbeat!

Yesterday we had our first appt for the baby, and we heard the heartbeat of our baby! That is a sweet sweet sound!! Everything is looking good and the baby sounds very healthy!! I will be out of my first trimester on Tuesday!!! YAY for me. I've been feeling pretty good, I've had a little nausea here and there but nothing like the first few weeks. I can't wait to tell you all what we are having!! We'd like a boy, but as long as the baby is healthy we don't care!

Avree's 2 Month Not So Well Check Up

This is has just not been the best of days for us! I get up super early this morning so I get Kalee to school on time and so Gracee, Avree, and I can go run errands before Avree's appt which was at 9am. So we leave Kalee's school at 7:50am and go do a few errands then off to the doctor. Well, we get there and the receptionist says you don't have an appt today you aren't even sceduled...what?!?!!? She says can we get you in for another day. I said NO WAY, I live in Royse City and just drove all this way (30 min) to Garland you need to fit me in! So she says I can get you in at 10:45am. So I said fine and left and went and hung out at my mom's for and hour (thank goodness she lives in Garland!!) Anyways, so I came back and I still didn't get in until 1130am and then the doc didnt even see me until 1230pm!! I know this is the sick season, BUT COME ON!!! 2 HOURS!!!!!! So he comes in and says that she is looking good on her weight and height and length and all that (12lbs 2oz, 24in, head 15.5) then she starts sneezing and coughing which she had been doing I just thought she had a little bit of a cold nothing major. So he is listening to her and he says I really don't like the way she sounds, she is weezing. Which I had already thought she was doing that but I also thought that I was being paranoid because of her bout with RSV a few weeks earlier. He said this is a relapse of RSV....WHAT?!?!?!! It's not as bad I mean not even as close to as bad as it was a few weeks ago, but I really don't want to be dealing with this again! He said to bring her back if she isn't better in 7-10days. He said she should completely stop weezing. And I asked well what if she doesn't and he said then we will start treating her for asthma!!! WHAT?!?!?!! This CAN NOT be happening!!!!! So I leave irritated, hungry, frustrated, stressed, and sad!! I just don't know what I am going to do with this family!!! We just can't stay healthy someone is ALWAYS sick!!! I feel so bad for Avree. Ok so anyways, there is my story! I am going to go to bed now!
