Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Well, as you all can see...I have been the WORST blogger ever.  It's been a while since I've even logged into my blog so you'll have a lot to read today and I promise, I'll get better at it. 

Today is St. Patrick's Day...Yes, I'm part Irish so I enjoy this day alot and the funniest part, I didn't even wear green.  When I got to work, I had to print out a shamrock and I colored it in with green...that way NO ONE can pinch me!! I sure wished my baby would have come out by now because we bought her an adorable "My First St. Patty's Day" outfit.  Hopefully she'll be here before Easter since her due date is tomorrow!

I will update everyone on my pregnancy and Brayleigh.  Our due date is tomorrow (March 18) according to all of our ultrasounds and my last period but the Dr has a due date of March 23 and that was from our very first ultrasound we ever had done.  Some doctors go by that, some go by her measurements.  I guess she will come out when she is good and ready to!  I haven't had her weight checked in over a month now, I am sure she's not a small baby by any means which is scary to think I have to push that out. ;)  She's worth it though!  We go back to the Dr next Wednesday for another check-up if she hasn't arrived yet.  Im feeling rather miserable to be honest.  The thought of her going another week makes me want to cry!  We've had a pretty good pregnancy for the most part with some minor issues.  The funny part about all of this is that the doctor just knew we wouldn't be able to carry Brayleigh to full term because of my cervix already being dilated at 34 weeks.  She got 2 steroid shots to boost her lung development and needless to say, she is still just as snug as a bug in a rug.    I've also had some tachycardia and some pre-eclampsia scares but tests are showing normal results so that's a plus as well.  Hopefully everything will turn out great in the end and everyone will be healthy and I'll have a safe labor and delivery.
