What a month!

Well it's been a crazy month so far. Tab took a spell and ended up in the hospital for 24 hour observation. Thank GOD everything turned out OK. Here an excerpt from her blog. 

   Clumsy at 35 weeks

i am exactly 5 weeks away from my due date!

and guess what i did?

i went and fell belly-first into the corner of my nightstand. seriously! what kind of mother am i? i felt so terrible that i could have caused my baby harm that i repeatedly kept promising her that i will never ever drop her when she gets on the outside. i won't blame her if she decides to stay in there forever...

we had to go to the hospital for a non-stress test to monitor her heartrate and movements. they gave me 3 bags of fluid, ran some bloodwork to make sure there was no crossing of mom and baby blood for internal bleeding, and they made me stay for 24 hrs. to make sure my placenta didn't detach. which it didn't. and everything turned out to be fine.

when they checked me that night, they found that i was 2 cm dilated, 75% effaced, and said my cervix was super soft and felt like a laboring cervix. as in i could be going into labor in the near future. we are also pretty sure i lost my mucus plug during my stay, so i'm thinking baby may be here before her due date. i have my 36 week appt. (NINE MONTHS) in the morning, so we will find out a little more at that time. until then, enjoy some pics from our crazy week:

My little girls room

Okay call me crazy but when I heard the girls were both pregnant I went a little crazy. I converted my office into a special little girls room just for them.

I painted it a fun bright blue, think Tiffany blue!

I bought bunk beds that can be twin beds, 

Installed a pretty chandelier and a few accessories


and it looks like Holli likes it already.


Here's what I did to incorporate my home office in with the guest room. 
The before

The new paint (raisin)

The new office area

 The after - guest room

 and the office (love it)
