been working on the best father's day present for the last 9 months..

she's going to be delivered tomorrow! i'm being induced and i can't wait to hold my baby in my arms and not in my belly anymore. do you think james will like his father's day gift?

more for my own remembrance (since this sort of serves as my journal) here are some things i wanted to remember about my 3 pregnancies.

Logan's:
-took only 2 months to get pregnant
-most morning sickness of all 3 (by far). i was probably sick for 4-5 months several times every day
-read the most pregnancy books
-only one that we didn't find out the gender
-painted my toenails alternating pink and blue at the end cause we didn't know what she was
-i guess she was a girl, and james guessed she was a boy
-would have been named Jackson, if she would have been a boy
-labor began about 3am and we went to the hospital about 4am. she was born at 3:36 pm.
may 13, 2002
-she was 2 days early
-10 lbs 1 oz
-no one would hire me after i started to show, so i had no job the few months before, and was really bored

Autumn's:
-took 20 months to get pregnant
-most headache's
-most heartburn
-best weather outside to deal with having her born in feb.
-don't think i had a pedicure when i went into labor (it was a surprise induction)
-probably the easiest pregnancy (we'll see about the labor and delivery)
-was induced about 37 weeks because the amniotic fluid was low
-started at 2:30pm and she was born at 10:30 pm. she was born feb 6, 2007
-9 lbs
-worked up to 3 days before i had her

New baby:
-took 13 months to get pregnant
-most active
-most hiccups
-most nesting
-some headaches, but not like autumn
-most hungry all the time
-hips hurt with all, but mostly this one (must be my old age!)
-worked up to 2 weeks before having her(torturous, for so many reasons)
-had a pedicure about a month ago, but changed it up today.
-being induced 1 week early because they are sure she will be another 9-10 lb baby
-most excited to get her out of me !!

This is the post the night before going in to have baby #3! We'll update about the newest addition soon! Wish me luck!
