No Baby Yet

Well I went back to the doctor this morning at 8am. Went straight to ultrasound and everything looked good. I got some pictures this time. I think she is going to look like Randal. Randal said "that is going to be one ugly baby" I said "No she isn't". She has gained 8 ounces since Wednesday. Yeah! Everything is looking good with her. My blood pressure is still staying up so after the ultrasound I went to see the doctor and when I got back there they checked my blood pressure and it was 140/97. They forgot to schedule me for a non stress test where they monitor the baby and see how many times she moves during that monitoring so I had to leave doctor and go back to ultrasound and do that for 30 minutes and she did really well. I went back to the doctor and she checked me and said I hadn't thinned anymore and since the baby was doing good and looking really good even though she was small, she wanted me to stay on bed rest and come back on Tuesday. I will then have that non stress test again and they will check me again. We will go from there. She said they would probably induce me within a week or so. I'm so thankful she wasn't coming today because my Mother and Dad were not coming back until Monday so now all the grandparents will be here for her arrival. Caylee Grace just wanted to stir things up with her grandparents. She is going to be just like her Dad I can see.

I'm at home resting. I came straight home, Randal fixed me some lunch and I went on to bed for a long nap. Randal left to go hunt for the days since all was well with his two favorite girls. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law came over for a bit but I'm by myself right now which is fine. I'm laying on the bed resting and watching TV. I hope I don't have to do this bed rest much longer.

Thanks to all the ladies from church that brought food over. It was so good. Caylee Grace is getting some good food.

I hope all is continues to go well. I am right down the road if you need me. I cannot wait to meet Caylee Grace. And tell Randal she is not going to be ugly. All babies are beautiful.

A week, OR LESS, maybe??? I can't wait.

I've sure missed you at church lately. I hope you're off bed rest soon too and can't wait until all 3 of you come to church together. :)

Can't wait to see her! I know you are more anxious than the rest of us. Let me know if you need anything. I can be there in a jiffy!
