Giddy Up! Dr. Sheridan just checked Niki and she’s 5cm, 90% effaced, and at station -1. Everything’s looking good so she broke Niki’s water and now we wait; contractions seem to be picking up a little bit. One way or another it’s going to be less than 24hrs and Elli’s going to be here!

This Time, This Time, This Time (Bee Movie)
Here we go again, but this time is different. We’re not coming home until Elli’s out. It’s 6:50am and we’re just getting to the hospital to start our adventure. After Niki’s 14th restless night, we’re ready to get this show on the road. Doc Sheridan is going to check Niki at 7am and if things […]
Running A Quart Low?
What a roller coaster… Today Niki had a Dr’s appointment to see how things are progressing and as they were looking at the baby with the ultrasound machine Dr. Sheridan said, “Wow, I haven’t seen that before!” Those aren’t really the words you want to hear from your doctor who has delivered hundreds of babies… […]
Five saltines in a minute?
It’s that time of the night again… Matt dares me to eat something and as always, I go for it. OK, this one’s not near as bad as yesterday. It’s a little known fact that it’s extremely difficult to eat five soda crackers in one minuteSo there’s really not much to my story other than […]
That’s not a Habañero. Is it?
It’s that time of the week again; Matt dares me to eat something and I naively oblige. This time it was a little red pepper that was sitting on the counter. No monetary incentives since we didn’t know if it would be hot or not, just adventure. I took a bite off the end and […]
Big Girl Bed
With Elli’s arrival just around the corner we decided to move Nya into her new room to start sleeping in her “big girl bed.” Last night was the first time we put her down in this new room, and on a regular bed. She did surprisingly well. We had to put her back to bed […]
Got That Sinking Feeling
Yesterday I took the Rhino from our house out to my parents place in Sterling to get out and enjoy the day. Niki met me there with the trailer. If you don’t know, the trails between here and there are not for the faint of heart. There are mud holes after creeks after mud holes… […]
Let Me Out Of Here!
If Elli could talk I’m sure that’s what she’d be saying. I caught this on the camera yesterday and had to share it with you. It’s like an alien or something. So we did see the Dr. today and she said nothing has changed since we went in a week ago! Apparently it doesn’t do […]
Painfully And Not So Patiently Waiting
It’s been over a week since our False Alarm x2 and we’re still waiting. My poor wife… We’ve got a doctors appointment tomorrow to see if we can’t speed things up a bit. In the mean time we’re doing almost everything we can to get this baby coming! Yesterday we cleaned the whole house, […]
Thud
Yesterday we were watching Curious George the movie with Nya and heard a loud thud on our window. We looked out the window and saw this little hawk with his prize. He slowly drug the dead bird off the edge of the lawn to get proper medical attention in the shrubs… OK, maybe not […]
