We haven't meant to abandon blogging, but things have been crazy for us the last couple of months!! Here's an update to let you all know what we've been up to...
Baby News:
So, we finally decided on our little girl's name...Camden Annaleigh Sims! We just loved the name Camden and Annaleigh is a combination of mine and my mom's middle name with my dad's middle name!! So...there you have it! Camden seems to be baking away...even though we've had some minor complications over the last month or so! At our 28-week visit, I let the doctor know that I had been experiencing contractions for a a few days...nothing major, but definitely something she needed to know! So...we did an ultrasound and found out that Camden may be trying to come earlier than expected! Also, she is breach, so that's something the doctor wants to keep an eye on as well! I've been going to the doctor every 2 weeks to make sure all is well...we've got another appointment this Wednesday and they'll do another ultrasound to check on Camden! I am 32 weeks along now, so hopefully we can make it through the holidays and maybe even Bryan and Amanda's wedding before Camden makes her debut! We'll see!
School News:
My last semester in pre-Nursing is coming to an end! Wow...what a year it has been! This semester has been really hard on me, as this class (or teacher, rather!) has been pretty intense!! I will be so glad when it is over! I found out at the beginning of November that unfortunately, I did not get into the Nursing program for this coming spring semester! I was SO bummed, but I was very happy for my friend Kristin, who did get in! Well...God works in mysterious ways, because about 2 weeks later, I received a call saying a spot had opened up and I was the very next person to get in....so it was offered to me!!! SO....I am in!!!! I know it will be crazy balancing classes and study time with my little man, newborn little lady, husband, etc...but I am so excited and ready to tackle this new chapter in my life! This means, if all goes well, I will graduate from nursing school in May 2012!!!!
Other News:
We celebrated Thanksgiving this year a little differently! Mom had hip replacement surgery on Monday before Thanksgiving, so our week was spent at the hospital assisting her! She was released on Thursday morning...just in time to have a mini-feast up at Sandy's house! My sister's and I divided up the menu, and with the help of our awesome significant other's...we pulled off an amazing meal that turned into a huge feast instead of the mini-feast we thought it would be! It was wonderful to be with Mom, even though we missed our extended family this year. Mom is recovering well at Sandy's house...she'll be there all this week, but will move to my house this weekend to finish out her recouperation until the doctor clears her to drive and handle stairs at her house!
So...that's the main jist of what we've been up to! Craziness! Hopefully I can get some pictures up sometime soon...Carson is growing like a weed and we've got a lot of fun times planned this month...we'll be sure to share them with you all!
