2 days and counting (instead of 12)

I think I hit the nesting stage yesterday, cause I got all sorts of stuff done yesterday, but about 5:30 last night I started feeling really sick. It took a couple of minutes to realize that it was probably my blood pressure. So I checked it at my mom's house and sure enough, it was real high. So I was up all night stressing about my Doctor's appt. this morning (probably not the best thing to do when your blood pressure is already high). Anyway, it was still high this morning and I haven't started to dilate still, so the Dr. gave me less than a 5% chance of being successfull with a VBAC. Those odds aren't good and I don't want to go through the whole labor for hours and still end up with a c-section. So I am scheduled for a c-section on Thursday the 30th at 1:30. Looks like Kamron will be an October baby after all (but at least not a Halloween baby)!

Successfull Deer Hunt!

Well we made it back from the deer hunt. Eight days of camping was fun, but it is nice to be back home in civilization again. We left Saturday the 18th and came back Saturday the 25th. We were a little worried going so close to my due date (14 days and counting) but my Dr. gave the ok and I wasn't about to miss the big camping trip. So I figured it usually takes a few hours of labor before you actually have the baby, so I could probably make the 4 hour drive back to the hospital before the baby came. Tim was really good about not leaving me without a car or by myself for an extended amount of time, and he even gave me a morning off by taking both the boys on the morning hunt so I could get some sleep. He also took me into Grouse Creek a couple of times to get me out of camp and took me on a really mellow Night hunt ride. I didn't do so good on the drives last year and didn't want to worry about my blood pressure so he took it easy on me. All in all it was a really good week! Tim shot a deer on Friday, so I guess I will have to choke down deer meat for a little while. The boys loved being outside all day long, and we didn't have a baby ( I told Tim that we could name the baby Hunter if he came on the deer hunt but it looks like he will be Kamron after all.) Here are some fun pics from the week!

Chase absolutely loved the deer, He would ask all day long to go and see them.

Yes, I know, I'm big and fat, don't look at my face! It's huge!

Eavesdropping

I walk Matt to school in the mornings and our neighbor that is in first grade with him walks with us most days. They have some pretty interesting conversations sometimes. Usually about roly polys and dandelions. But this morning I was eavesdropping on our way to school. Matt was saying how his friend Jaden said he saw an alien spaceship but Matt doesn't believe him cause they aren't real. Ellie said "Do you believe in God?"
Matt: yeah, AND I believe in Santa Clause. But not ghosts!
It made me happy to hear him say he believes in God, but I'm not sure how to feel about him associating that with Santa Clause and ghosts. But it still made me chuckle.
