Emma Amore Warner

Our baby girl was born May 31,2011 at 9:11 PM, weighing 6 lbs 13 oz, and 20 inches long.

Seeing my sweet baby for the first time! She is so beautiful!!!Holding our baby for the first time. She had to go to the NICU for about 4 hours, so we did not get to hold her until about 0130.Wide awake after her first bath!She likes to sleep with her arms up by her head just like her daddy!Her first manicure!

Laurence is getting used to having a baby around, he is really good with her and likes to sniff her and give her kissess!

40 weeks.......

So, I thought by now I would be holding my sweet baby girl in my arms, feeding and changing her, hearing her cry, all the things you do when you finally have the baby, BUT nope I am not. Instead I am STILL very very pregnant. I am scheduled to be induced Wednesday morning, I will be 41 weeks and one day. I am slowly slowly learning to take it easy and not mow the lawn or plant flowers, or whatever I want to do that I have to wait until Dane goes to work to do ( I may be a little stubborn and impatient!)... Dane says he won't feel bad for my anymore if my back hurts because I "Overdue it." So the last few days I really have not done much, but I am doing a great job of catching up on all the PBS documentaries, TV shows and movies! I am just counting down the days until I finally have this baby!

Maternity Pictures

On Easter Dane and I set up the tripod and snapped a few pictures of my ever growing belly! I think they turned out pretty good for a couple of amateurs and a tripod!

37 WEEKS

37 WEEKS...
I have tree stumps for legs and chubby person fingers....
I am super emotional and cry or almost cry several times a day...
I go to the bathroom so so so so so so so much...
I get up so many times through the night to get a drink or go to the bathroom I think it would be easier to have a catheter and IV fluids hanging!....
Laurence thinks I grew this perch just for him to sit and lay on!...
I feel like I am about 90 years old...
I can't even describe how excited I am to meet our baby girl!...
I have my bags packed and am ready for Emma Amore Warner to make her grand appearance!
AS MUCH FUN AS THIS WHOLE PREGNANCY THING HAS BEEN......................................... ......I AM SO READY TO HAVE THIS BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

35 Weeks and our last mini Vacation before we are PARENTS (weird)!

We went to St George a couple of weekends ago for our last mini vacation before our little babe arrives! We went with our good friends Micheal and Ashley. We had a blast despite the rain, snow and wind pretty much the whole time we were there!

35 Weeks!!! I can't believe we get to meet our baby girl so soon! I am feeling pretty good, I am more tired and my feet and legs get so swollen I don't even recognize them, but other than that I am doing great and the baby looks great too! We did catch a couple nice bike rides in St George between the bad weather!

We went hiking in the snow, it was still very beautiful, just a little cold!

30 weeks...

10 more weeks to go!!! Isn't he just the cutest pup EVER!!!

This week was rough, I got the stomach flu.........It was awful. It took so long to recover, I don't think I am fully recovered yet, I still feel a little weak. Laurence was so sweet all day, He just laid by me the whole day, no matter where I went he just followed. I shut him out of the bathroom when I was really sick and he went crazy barking and scratching the door trying to get in to see if I was ok. After a night and day of feeling really sick I told Dane "this is taking forever to get better" he laughed and said "oh man a whole day of feeling crappy I can't even imagine..." oh ya I forgot he was miserable for over 2months, Ha Ha wrong person to complain to! On a good note Dane is completely recovered and back to his goofy self! I sure missed him and Love him so much!!

What we have been up to...

A whole lot of NOTHING.... Dane has been having horrible sinus problems AGAIN:( So we have been sitting around the house, oh we do switch it up a bit, we move from the couch, to the computer chairs, to the bed, I know pretty exciting. My poor little husband has been miserable for 2 months now. He has surgery today at 3pm. A few days of recovery and we are hoping he is good as new and I can have my husband back, I sure do miss him.
As for the Pregnancy I am 27 weeks now!!! I am due in less than 3 months! I am feeling pretty good, with the occasional debilitating back pain, other than that I feel great! We love our little Emma already and can't wait to meet her! This is me at 25 weeks, we were heading to my favorite spot with the healing waters... Crystal Springs!This is the nursery! It's turning out very cute, I love it!!
