Welcome Liliana

The wait is over!!

Thursday November 19th at 2:00pm Liliana was born!!

She was 5 lbs 3 oz and 19 1/2 inches long!!

Labor went well and we are all doing great : ) We came home Saturday afternoon and have been enjoying our time together! Thank you for everyones support and for keeping us in your prayers! I will try to update with more pictures as soon as I can... but I am trying to focus on baby right now : )

The big day!

So I just wanted to write a quick post and let everyone know that I am going to be induced this Thursday at 6 0clock am! So Liliana will be here November 19th!! I went in for my weekly check up and found out that I am dilated to a 3 and my cervix is 90 percent thinned out. My doctor asked me if I would like to be induced next week and I said maybe... He then said that we should do a quick ultrasound to make sure she was growing alright and that everything was fine. So that I could be induced next week.... But then

we went and did the ultrasound and he said that she is only about 5 lbs and 9 oz. He is worried because last month when I had my ultrasound she was in the right percentile and was growing fine... but since then she has dropped dramatically. Which leads him to think something could be wrong. ( she is in the 2nd percentile which means that for being at 38 weeks 98 percent of babies are bigger then her) He did more test on me today because he thought he may even have to induce me today... luckily everything looked okay so he said that I could go home as long as I pay super close attention to her movements and that he will see me on Thursday for labor. Since she is full term now and I am 38 weeks it is better to be safe then sorry he said. It is better to induce me then to let her sit in there and take the chance that something is wrong or could go wrong.

I am just thankful that I have a great doctor who watches me closely and wants to make sure my baby is safe. I am a little nervous but excited! I am still praying that everything is okay and that she is safe and healthy!
Please keep us in your prayers : )

Update

So lately I have not only been anticipating the arrival of Liliana but also the arrival of my Mom! We are so blessed that she is coming to stay with us for two weeks! She is going to be such a great help and we know how stressful and difficult it is for her to get away from her job... so it really means a lot to us! She fly's down December 2nd and I cannot wait to see her and for her to finally get to see where we live! I know she is also really excited!

We are also still awaiting the arrival of Liliana... everyday we get closer and closer and we get more and more excited! I am doing good.... trying to get as much rest as I can before she comes. I have dilated a little further since my last appointment and my doctor is still guessing that she will be here before Thanksgivings ... so we'll have to see : ) I am 37 weeks and I cant even believe that half of November is already over! It is so crazy... I never thought I would actually be this close!

36 Weeks!

This may be my last pregnancy post so I decided that it deserves two photos : )

Belly!!

This is my very first naky belly picture : )

I am so amazed by pregnancy and how wonderful

it is to be pregnant!

I am now 36 weeks pregnant! I am so excited... and some days I'm a little sad that I wont be pregnant anymore and other days I'm so excited that it is almost over! I guess it depends on my mood. I went to the doctor yesterday and found out that I am dilated to a 2! This means that Liliana will be here before Thanksgiving! My doctor said that he gives me about 2 more weeks if not sooner!! She is head down and has dropped, my cervix is already 85 % effaced. Which means she isn't wasting anytime she is just as excited to see us and we are to see her!! I am trying to take as many pictures as I can now since I could go into labor anytime. And since Javis is at work I am left to take my own pregnancy pictures ....hope you don't mind : )

Trick or Treat?

Wickers getting his moment with the pumpkins

All our pumkins lighten up

Javis did the mummy and I did the scary cat!

The lighting is kinda bad but here is a picture of the carving table!

So I cant even believe that Halloween has came and gone! On Friday we had our neighbors over to our house for treats and to carve some pumpkins! Then on Saturday after we pasted out candy we met up with our neighbors again and played some games had some snacks and some delicious hot chocolate! We are so glad that we have such great neighbors that love to hang out and have a great time!
