Early Morning, Feelin Good

Sundays have become very early mornings these days. Inspite of that, last night was a WONDERFUL sleep night, so I am rested up underneath all of the regular morning fatigue. Sleep will change once again when Kaydon arrives, but at least the lack of sleep won't be completely foreign to me with all the trouble I've been having with sleeping lately. Our tour of the hospital that we are to give birth in made me want to check in early just to enjoy the private little room and all its perks! For now, I'll stay focused on my bed & gather all the zzzz's I can =)

An Event–Filled Day

So it's 11:34pm & I am just getting this post in for the day. A very busy day! Had lots of help working out the stuff of settling in. I am so grateful for the responsiveness of those who have been pitching in and coming to my side in my moments of slowness & neediness. And Kaydon finally kicked for Auntie Cheryl (who threw his shower party)! So, again, quite an event filled day =)

Now off to bed to get up for the long haul to Lomita, and of course another blog in the morning!

A Waiting Game

Dr's appt went great - she says all is well. We are now just actively engaged in the game of "wait for it..." But of course, it's all about the hurry up and wait mentality, as there are still some significant things to do before we can truly say we are settled for the little one. It will be interesting to see how much gets done in the next 2 weeks of July...The goal is to have things in order by the last day in July. This is to encourage little Kaydon to come out Aug 1, the day after it all gets completed =) We'll see if he takes this first opportunity to listen to his mama! =)

Achy like a toothache

Have u ever had a toothache that made your whole body hurt? That's what I have going on right now...only its not a toothache, it's some random pregnancy related pain located in one spot, but making everything feel pained. This "spot" is largely responsible for the trouble I have "waddling" around and the inconvenience of sleeping through the night. In addition to the full of pee bladder that gets me up hourly, I am waddling through the dark very slowly racked with the pain of that spot. Last night was a tough one! Very little sleep after being in conference all day, and anticipating another day long conference + dr's visit this afternoon...Maybe the dr will have some insight other than "comes with the territory" =)

On a different note, several people @ conference confirmed (with no prompting from me) how small they think my belly is to be in my 9th month of pregnancy. I think I'm averaging about 5 months according to my look! Crazy. It drove me to ask Ramon "Are u SURE I'm 9 months pregnant?" He wittily replied "If your not, I want my money back". What a nut =) =) =)

In 30 Days...

(or hopefully less...)...we shall bear a son!! And he shall be called Kaydon James Mayo. I will be blogging mini excerpts daily until that day... Your comments are welcomed. =)

Swollen feet

Yvette's feet are swollen. They won't go down. I am at a loss. Anybody out there know how to manage the swollen feet thing?

Delivery vs. Postpartum

Maaannnn! Hospitals, doctors, the whole health care system is a mess. They give you this great delivery room that has a dvd player and all of this space and a comfy bed. The only thing is you have to pay for that. The post partum room-the one after that Yvette will stay in after the birth sucks! It's small and tiny but guess what our insurance covers that. Anyway I haven't blogged here in a while but I just had to get that off my chest. Health Care in America needs a rehaul! Obama 08! John Q 08! Somebody 08!
