Back from Florida!

Saturday, August 5th, 2006

Hi Everyone! Sorry we’ve been away for so long. We just got back from Annabelle’s first trip to Florida, which was great fun. Before that, it was busy with Grandma Gail being here and then Meme, Merle, Aunt Patty and Gary.
I’ve gotten the pictures from the Florida trip online, you can see them [...]

Annabelle’s Home!

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

After getting a clean bill of health for mommy and baby, Chrissy and I brought Annabelle home on Wednesday. It was really a great feeling to be able to actually bring her home.
Annabelle has been doing great - she actually slept some last night (for about 3 hours, and then for about 2.5 hours), [...]

Welcome to Annabelle Katherine Foy!

Wednesday, June 14th, 2006

Well, she’s finally here! Yesterday (June 13th), Chrissy and I went in for a checkup to see if our doctor would let us postpone the induction until Friday to give Annabelle more time to come out on her own. After checking Chrissy, Dr. Morse decided that it would be best if we were induced right [...]

Trip to Rocheport

Monday, June 12th, 2006

Well, in an effort to stay busy while we wait for the baby to come, Cory and I decided to take my mom on a little trip to Rocheport. It’s only about 15 minutes away, but it was a nice diversion for the day. We first stopped for lunch at the Les Bourgeois Blufftop Bistro. [...]

Nothing Going On

Wednesday, June 7th, 2006

Well, today was supposed to be “the” day. I think it’s pretty safe to say that the baby is not going to come on time. We’ll have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow morning and they’ll monitor the baby for about an hour to make sure everything’s still ok in there. I’m sure she’s fine…she moves around [...]

“Conditions are Favorable”

Thursday, June 1st, 2006

I just got back from my 39 week appointment…Still hanging out at a centimeter, but the doc said it is a “loose” centimeter, my cervix is soft, and I am about 75% effaced! Definitely good news! She has an induction date scheduled for about a week after my due date, but I’m hoping it won’t [...]

Memorial Day BBQ

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

Good food, crafts, poker, and the Bible….what more could you ask for in one night? Cory and I celebrated this Memorial Day with the ACTS Bible study group. While the guys were grunting and cooking meat, the ladies enjoyed sitting back with our yarn and knitting needles and delighting in our newly learned craft! Thankfully [...]

Life’s a beach!

Monday, May 29th, 2006

Sort of.
Chrissy and I got invited by our neighbors Travis and Jessica to go down to Stephen’s Lake Park right down the road from us for some swimming and Hot Dogs. So we all piled into the vehicles and headed down there.
It was a great day for swimming, and Chrissy seemed really happy [...]

She’s Coming!

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006

Well, I had my weekly doctor’s appointment today and we got some encouraging news….Baby is definitely head down and is preparing for her descent! In fact, after an examination, the doctor informed me that I am 1 cm dilated. Of course, it could still be weeks until her actual arrival, and I’m still 3 weeks [...]
