We will go from a family of 3 to a family of 4 (plus Corny).

Max and Corny

Doctor Visit

I to my doctor's office today for my amnio. The doctor was not able to do it in the office because the needle they had was not long enough. She sent me to labor and delivery at the hospital to monitor the baby and me for about an hour. Then, she came over and did the amnio at the hospital. She was only able to get blood tinged fluid, so they could not get a reading at the hospital in WY. They sent the fluid to Salt Lake City to be checked. Hopefully, we will know tomorrow if the delivery is still on for Wednesday.
While at the hospital after the 2nd amnio, I started contracting every 3 minutes. They were able to stop the contractions again, so I came on home. I am still on strict bed rest and it stinks.

Sunday

Max had a fun Sunday with his cousin. They ate breakfast together and went to church.




They had fun playing.






Then they ate lunch and took a nap.

Pumpkin Patch

My sister and her family came up today to visit and go to the pumpkin patch. My mom said that Max really enjoyed pulling the wagon.

Grandpa's Office

I am sure that Max is spending a lot of time in his Grandpa's office. That is where the m&m stash is!





PS. I just want to thank my dad for keeping Sheldon and I updated with tons of pictures. We sure are missing our little Max Man.

Nana's Boys

Little Cowboy

Max will be in TN for his birthday, so he is having a big party! They went today and picked out all of the decorations. He is having a cowboy birthday party. I am sure he will wear his boots and hat to the festivities.

Birthday Shopping

Max went to Toys R Us today to shop for his birthday present from Nana and Grandpa. He really wanted this tricycle, but there is nowhere to ride it during the WY winters. He will have to wait until spring. After picking out his toys, he ate lunch at Burger King. It is his favorite!
I have a feeling my parents will be making a trip to UPS before Max comes home to ship all of his new goodies.

Vote for Max

Please go and vote for Max. I entered him into a Gap Casting Call. You can vote for him once a day until November 17.

If he wins, he will be one of the new faces of Baby Gap. THANKS!!!

Visiting Tennessee

Max has gone to Tennessee for a couple of weeks. With me on bed rest, still having contractions, and moving up my due date we decided it was probably for the best. My dad flew out to Denver yesterday and we met him at the airport with Max. We were able to visit for an hour or so and then him and Max were off.



They made it back safely and Max is having such a fun time. He was reunited with Popcorn and is loving all over him.






Sheldon and I already miss him like crazy, but are so thankful for my parents wanting to have Max visit.

Baby Update

Today I went to the doctor for a check up. Everything is still the same. I am still on medicine and bed rest. She is moving my c section up to Wednesday or Thursday of next week. Monday or Tuesday, she is going to do an amniocentesis to check Crocker's lungs and make sure they are developed enough to deliver.

Snow

Sheldon took Max up the mountain today to play in the snow. It snowed 8-10 inches up there last night. Tonight we are under a freeze warning.
