Madison's progress

Well, our OB appointment went well. I was a little nervous about getting a new doctor/nurse, but God was with us!! At this hospital, they don't have Midwife Nurses, but Nurses and Residents. We were assigned to Captain Wilson...seems to be a great guy! Darren & I both really like him :)
Cpt Wilson explained Madison's growth is right on target and her heartbeat sounds excellent!! He won't do anymore ultrasounds unless he detects a problem. :( I really wanted to see my baby girl quirming around, but it won't be long!
Now, I start going for bi-weekly visits until I'm 36 wks, then on a weekly basis. Today, I'm 31 wks going to 32 this wknd. I can't believe in as little as 7 weeks, Madison could be here with us!!! It's such a wonderful feeling, I can't describe it! God has created this wonderful, exciting little being that continues to grow inside of me!! How completely blessed we feel to have this experience!!! :) OK, now I'm fighting back the tears just thinking about her!
Darren & I went shopping today at Target! YIPPEEE Thanks to our wonderful friends in NY at Neighbors of Watertown, we were able to get a lot of the baby (& mommy) items that we still needed. They were awesome to us....throwing a baby shower with lots of great gifts and a Target gift card! Once again, we feel very blessed to have friends like them! :)

Relocation Trip Part 2

Well, we finally made it to GA! We've been staying with my parents in North Georgia and venturing down to Ft. Benning a few times a week. The weather is so nice....sunny & warm. Boy what a change from upstate NY! And of course, Darren loves that he doesn't have to shovel anymore snow! hehe ;)

Currently, we're in the process of locating a home. So, in the interim we'll stay here or at least until Darren has to sign into work. The commute from North GA to Benning is 2+ hours so it's just not feasible to do very often. And for those of you that have experienced Atlanta traffic, you know how entertaining that can be! NOT!

Baby Madison is doing well :) We go to the OB Wednesday, so hopefully I'll have more ultrasound pics to share. She's moving around now more than ever...it's so exciting to watch my belly move and know she's in there squirming around :)

Relocation trip part 1

Darren & I are now on our second leg of our journey to Ft. Benning, GA. We spent last week in IL with his family and had a wonderful time :) We're now in IN visiting my family. Boy, is it good to get back to our old 'stomping grounds' and revisit our roots. I'm sure you can imagine how difficult it is at times to be away from the ones that you love so much. But we've been very fortunate that we have this time to see our families & friends. :)

We're all doing well! Lil Madison is moving around like crazy now :) I'm so excited to go to my next ultrasound and see how much she's grown!!! When I have those pics, I'll post them.

We miss everyone!!!
