Happy birthday Monkey!

I can't believe my baby girl is the big 1 today. Yesterday I broke down with the thought of today. I have mixed emotions about her turning 1. I so proud of everything she has done in her 1st year but then I really miss the little helpless baby that would not get pissed when you told her no. Please don't get me wrong I have absolutely just enjoyed every minute of her (even the fussy screaming parts) but it's just really hard. I remember theday I gave birth to her like it was just today and alot of her 1st year I remember so vividly. But no matter what she will always be my perfect little baby girl. I love you so much that the mere words don't even come close to what I actually feel for you. I am so very proud to say I am your mother. So Happy birthday my love!!!!!!!

11 month picture "s"

WOW!

Happy 11 month birthday Allison!!!!!!!! 1 more month and you will be a year old. I love you Monkey!

Hard to believe that you aren't this size anymore

So hard to believe

That this time last year I was HUGE. Tomorrow my beautiful little monkey pants will be 11 months old. She is just now starting to look like toddler. I swear she grew a few inches overnight. I believe I actually said that yesterday while buckling her into her carseat. It is so crazy to me.

I am now planning her 1st birthday. I have to place booked and the invitations made and ordered and they should be arriving shortly. (side note- Etsy.com kicks butt it's my new addiction) I have her decorations all picked out just need to order. We found her outfit she is going to wear and then the food and her cakes. In a month I will have a 1 year old.

Ok it's just nuts how when you are pregnant it feels like it is forever until that baby gets here then, when they get here it's gone so fast you shouldn't blink or you will miss something extrodinary. I tell you I have new appreciation for life after bringing such a beautiful life into this world. Everything you do on a daily basis in taught or just by doing when you are just a baby.

Ali isn't walking yet. I thought for sure she would have started walking by now. She stands all the time. She hardly ever sit's anymore. But this child will NOT move her little feet. So hopefully she will have atleast taken a step by her birthday. Knowing her one day she will be walking like she had been doing it for months.

I just love her so much that my heart aches.

Here a few pic from last night

Catching up alittle

So I have not written since February of last year. Yikes! So in a nutshell. Allison Kathryn was born February 5th at 12:11pm which was the day after my 39 week appointment. I went to my appointment and ended up getting admitted to the hospital and after 24 hours of labor the child was ripped out of me and she was gigantamous. Allison was 9 POUNDS and 21.75 inches this child was waaaaay to big to come out my hoohoo ok. It has been awesome watching her grow these almost 11 months. She is an awesome baby! Has a temper butso do I. I just love her to pieces. So here is a pic and i will try and keep up with the writing.

She was exactly 10 months old here. December 5th 2009 by an awesome photographer.

11 Days left

So here we are with only 11 days until the due date left and it feels like forever. I am so excited to meet. I am at the point that the pain of delivery is not scary to me anymore. I also am not scared for her to be her. Which I think I was all of that oh maybe last week. This waiting game is terrible. It's the not knowing if she will come out on her own or if they will have to make her come out that bothers me. I know that it can happen at any point it's just not having a specific day. I am such an impatient person but I am trying to get over that. I cannot wait to hold her and have her hold my finger with her little fingers. It is so amazing to me that just 9 months ago see was so very tiny and now I have this 7lb (est) person inside me. I am alittle worried that I might do the whole she's mine thing. Just because she has been pretty much all mine. I am the one that she kicks and punches. I feel like I have this special bond with her and at times I dont want to share but I think pretty much every pregnant woman goes through that. I am going to be someones mommy that is so crazy to me. I am excited to see Aaron as a daddy I know that he will be wonderful. I cant wait to see him interact with her.

Our entire family is beyond excited for Allison to be here. Everyone at this point keeps asking is she here yet...How about now??? My mom and dad are very excited as this is their fist grandchild that they can play with and hold.

Well according to Dr Kaufman I am 2 cm dilated. I am hoping that the Wednesday appointment I have more progress. I am terrified of going beyond 40 weeks in that something will happen to her.

Please come out baby Allison...Please....
