Best buds - Colleen with her favorite snuggle pup.

Yay, hangin' with Pops is so much fun :)

Ah, what a nice Thanksgiving!

Gidde up little doggie!

Mmmm...Turkey!  Mom & Dad, gimme some turkey.

Sorry there haven't been updates for a while, our internet was done for quite a while but we are back in business.

Indy found a new use for the boppy pillow...

Hahaha...Dad is soooo funny :)

Lalala...I'm not listening...

Mmmm, treat for me? :)

Happy Halloween everyone!

Seriously dad?

Matt and Natalie came down to visit.  Natalie knew it was going to be a rough night with her dad trying to dress her up as a puppy for Halloween, so she had a drink to relax.

Our little pumpkin and skeleton dog :)

Hi Pumpkin!

Happy Halloweeeeeeeen!

Today Colleen caught sight of her first Peterson's donut.  She was in awe since the apple fritter was bigger than her head!

Mmmm...Peterson's Donuts :)

Colleen in her little snuggly outfit complete with hood and ears :)

Here is a pic of Indy and Colleen sleeping head to head.  They both fell asleep on the couch.  Indy had a small hot spot he wouldn't stop licking, hence the "cone of silence".

Sorry for no new posts lately.  Colleen has a little baby acne at the moment so we aren't taking picture of her now, except for blackmail material when she gets older :)

So, here is a picture of Indy instead.  He has found the stroller quite comfortable when he gets tired.  He just hops into the front and gets a ride...lazy pup!

Snug as a bug in a rug :)

Indy, the fearless watchdog, protecting the girls while Meg is feeding Colleen.

Colleen just chilling like a villain...

Jerry and I went back out for some lobster hunting.  Had to post this since the season is off to a great start!  Here I am with a halo of lobbies :)

Colleen in her stroller going out for her first walk yesterday around the park with her protector, Indy.

Had our first check-up today and everything is going great!  Here Colleen is enjoying a nap in her bouncer...she loves it :)

Last night was opening night of lobster season (YUM!) and Jerry, Todd, Claudio, Manuel, and Dan all went out at an early 4am so Colleen could meet her first lobster :)

Thanks for all the well wishes.  Everyone is doing great!  There are a few pics below.

 

Yay. She's here. 8.2 pounds at 5:55pm

Alright game time. Time to start pushing!!!

The hospital Internet is blocking this site so I am posting from my iPhone and hence no pictures. Anyway, dr broke the water at about 1:30pm. Things should be moving along soon!

Well. We are underway. Got the pitocin flowing and just hanginout. Colleen is happy and movin about...

Baby Colleen happy, but still inside

I had an ultrasound, a non-stress test and a doctor visit today. The ultrasound showed Colleen happily playing with her feet and curled up with her head down. They estimated she weighs 8 pounds! Yikes! Other than that, everything looked good.
The non-stress test consisted of me being hooked up to a monitor which measured her heartbeat and my contractions. She had tons of movements in the 20 minute period (all they need is two and she had more than 20!) and I had no contractions.
After meeting with the doctor, we set up a date for inducing - Wednesday at 7am. So unless I go into labor before then which my nurse said she didn't think would happen or the hospital is too crowded with natural births, I will hopefully deliver Colleen on the 30th.

Due day!

Today is baby Colleen's due date and so far, she hasn't decided to come out.  We're keeping our fingers crossed, but I go to the doctor tomorrow and we'll see about inducing then.  In the meantime, here are a few pictures of me when pregnant.
