I am so excited about meeting Ashley. I was just thinking about how great it will be to meet her and hold her. I'm excited about the whole hospital experience. I just love it. I really love my hospital. I get served Starbucks coffee every morning. The chef there used to be a chef for a five star restaurant downtown. I can order food 24 hours a day and as often as every two hours. I get a full menu to choose from. The nurses are so kind and compassionate. My doctor Shannon is so down to earth, nice, and funny. They have a day care there so we might take advantage of that for our kids while we are there. I can't wait to hold the little baby. All so exciting...
Pregnancy just flying fast! I cannot believe how much my pregnancy is just flying by! I can't believe in just 6 days I'll be 7 months pregnant. Holy moly. It's craaazy. The other day I put Charles hand on my tummy while he was lying down and Ashley just kept kicking his hand really hard over and over. He got so excited, he couldn't believe she was doing that. He loved it. I still have not bought much maternity clothes. Since the styles that are in, give so much room for a growing tummy, I just buy regular shirts. Babydoll tops, wedges, and some cute pants. That's about it. I used to feel kind of down when I was pregnant before because I would always wear these funky maternity clothes that weren't that flattering. I'm embarrassed looking back on pictures. But just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I have to sacrifice fashion! Last time and this time, I've changed my ways of thinking and I've felt so much better. Be creative and stay cute. That'll help with the whole idea that you feel like a beached whale. Hee, hee....

Husband feeling Baby Charles just gets so excited every time he can feel our baby in my womb. He loves to just hold his hand there and wait for a kick. He'll start talking to her. Sometimes when we're just laying there, he'll have his arm around my stomach and Ashley will kick his arm until he moves it. LOL! I am so hyper though that often I have a hard time sitting down and relaxing. I know I need to be careful but that's how I am. I don't even feel pregnant except for the big bump in front of me. I'm so blessed to have easy pregnancies. If I'm not careful though, sometimes the doctor will put me on temp bed rest because I tend to do too much and have contractions. That's happened with all my pregnancies. I hope not this time.

Love baby Movements
I feel baby move all the time now and I know her patterns of when she moves the most. It's so wonderful and not yet uncomfortable!! LOL!! It can get painful later on. One time when I was pregnant another time, I was sleeping and Charles said he felt the baby kicking his back. He love it. So funny. I still feel like pregnancy is going so great and I feel so blessed in that way. I am a little nervous about having a girl because Ivy is so complex being she's a girl. Will I do okay with two girls? I think boys are so much easier.
