30 weeks!


                  30 weeks..let the count down begin!! I absolutely cannot believe how fast this pregnancy is flying by! 10 weeks at the most and we will be holding our little girl! I had an appt yesterday and discussed the option of having a c-section again since I did with Kennedy but I told my doctor I would only want to do that if he would be the one to do it ha! At my doctors office their is 3 different doctors that could be possibly be the one to deliver you depending on who is working that day/night. The reason I was considering doing a c-section was because it seems so easy. You schedule when you go in and then a couple hours later you have your baby! The down side to having a c-section the second time is that all of the rest of you babies from that point on would have to be delivered c-section also. So we decided I would wait until my due date to decide. Hopefully she will come early and I will just have a VBAC. Kennedy was tangled in my cord and that was the reason I wasnt able to have her vaginally last time. I have faith and feel good that everything will work out really easy this time!  I have been keeping active and that is supposed to help with easy labor. We are getting everything ready for Kensi and even got her some new outfits! Kennedy is excited I think..she will always put her head on my belly and rub it. She is going to be the best sister ever! I have been feeling great and haven't had any more cramps or pains for the past week and a half! I still get some braxton hicks but other than that this pregnancy is back to being a breeze! I feel so blessed to be having my second baby and to be married to the man of my dreams. Its to nice to be able to savor the time we have together while still being a family of 3 because we will never have that again. So exciting to be expanding our family I just dont want Kennedy to feel left out or forgotten. We have been having so much fun this break together as a family that it makes me sad he is starting school this Monday! At the same time however, we are so ready for him to graduate that we want to get this semester started! It will also be nice to be on a schedule again! And their will be lots of fun Fall activities that we are looking forward too:)
