Welcome to the World Little Girl

On Monday, October 27th, we welcomed our baby girl to our family. Lillian Marie Wegener was born at 8:14 am. She weighed 7lbs 5 oz and was 20.5 inches long. She was born via planned C-Section, and as it turned out, she would have had to been born that way as she was breech...a surprise to all of us. She is a beautiful little girl who is SO ALERT! She has a head full of black hair and a sweet little face to go along with it. We are so proud to add her to our family.

Final Weekend as a Family of Three

As we all prepare for the arrival of Lilly this coming up Monday, we wanted to celebrate our final weekend as a family of three. We decided to take part in some traditional fall festivities and went down to Fernwood Botanical Center. We decorated pumpkins and took a stroll through the fall leaves. Jacob had such a good time! It was bittersweet for me thinking that this is one of the last days where it's just us and our little man. Soon it will be the four of us!

Almost there.....38 weeks on Monday!

I can hardly believe that I'll get to meet my little girl in 10 days! It seems all to fast and then again a long time coming. On Monday I'll be 38 weeks, and they are inducing me on the following Monday 10/27. I went to the doctor's yesterday. I'm measuring perfect and her heart rate was great. This, however, is around the time when things started not going right with Jacob, so I'm all sorts of anxious. The doctor asked if she was moving as much as usual, and I responded honestly with "No". I'm sure it's due to the fact that there's not nearly as much room in there as there used to be, but none the less, they didn't like my answer, so they hooked me up to the monitors to be sure. They did a non-stress test to monitor contractions and the baby's heartbeat over a 20 minute period. This is the test that Jacob failed.....Lilly, however, passed with flying colors! All is well with her and I got to see my contractions on paper! That's right people....we are contracting over here! I hope I can make it until the 27th....anyone who knows my Type A personality can appreciate that any earlier would really throw off my plan:) Here's hoping for a fast 10 more days!

New House

Well...after months and months of stress, hassle and living with the inlaws, we have managed to move into our new house. We've actually been here a little over a month and things are starting to get settled and are starting to feel like "home". We love it here!
