Gardner Update...

So it has been awhile since I have posted anything. I guess it is because I just don't like to blog about anything, although I love it when other people do, so this is just an update as I am not sure when the next one will come.

We are going to be at 37 weeks pregnant today and the pregnancy is going great. The Dr. says the baby is extremely healthy as the last month she has been weighing at around 8lbs but he says he isn't sure really how big she will be, and I don't have any problems which is wonderful, although I am not due until Nov. 16th he wants to induce me this week as he is going to be out of town from the 1st till the 13th. Initially that sounds wonderful as I don't think there is much room left at all, I am supposed to see him tomorrow (27th) to make a game plan. He says if everything is still the same from last week he will just let the pregnancy go as long as possible and if I am still pregnant when he comes back on the 13th then he will induce me on the 14th, but if he can find any reason possible to induce then I guess she will be born in October, preferably the 31st. I think I am going to let him know that I would rather let me go as far as possible because this week isn't the best week as I have my Grandpas Funeral and would really like to be there, and just plain simple fact that I didn't go very far with Savannah that I would like to see where this one goes to.

I think that we have everything ready for the baby to come, the only thing left to do is pack a bag for the hospital, I have a list but nothing packed.

My Grandpa was supposed to be coming home next week from the nursing home and then this last Friday things just got worse so we were able to go up to the hospital to say good-bye and then they took him off life support and about 15 min. later he was gone. He was sealed to his first wife in the temple, and has been married to my grandma for a little less than 10 years. I know he is having a grand reunion with his wife, but we are very saddened to see him go, especially for my Grandma. Eric always enjoyed talking with him and Savannah just enjoyed to be anywhere near him as he would indulge her on her many imaginitive schemes. I haven't told Savannah yet as she had a hard time comprehending things when my brother passed away a couple of months ago, I figure I am going to wait until the viewing and try to make the visit as short as possible. She is so emotional for a 4 year old, and she has been surrounded by deaths every since I was pregnant with her.

Savannah and Eric playing on the swing in the backyard. He started his last class to Graduate at the end of this term and now Monday-Friday he leaves for work at 7:15 am and is there until 4 then off to class until 9, so he isn't home till 9:30pm, so he tries to spend as much of his time with his little girl. What great buddies they make.

Carving pumpkins, she didn't like the pumpkin goo. (Neither did Dad, so mom did the gutting)
