Another appointment down!

So alot hasn't changed since last post. We went to visit Dr White yesterday and we heard her heartbeat which was 144 bpm. Every time I hear the heartbeat it is like the first time. I can't help but grin a little :) Last week I did the gestational diabetes test, turns out I do not have diabetes or as Wilford Brimley would say diabeetus. What I did find out is that I am borderline anemic. When I asked the doctor what that means for me he said "It means you're pregnant." He wasn't worried about it at all. He just told me to start taking over the counter iron pills. I am less than thrilled because I heard 1. It makes your tee tee funny 2. It makes you constipated and 3. It makes your breath stink. As if I'm not feeling attractive enough right now I have to add this iron to my life haha. Oh well anything to keep baby Camryn healthy. Little Camryn is so active...I feel her kick all the time sometimes she even likes to keep Mommy up at night. She is around 15 inches long right now and weighs just over two pounds according to my book. Onto another topic...I got to keep Hayden on Tuesday and I just have to share these sweet pictures of her!

Showered again!

So not much has changed since my last blog except I had my second shower :) Andy's sister and mother threw Camryn and I a beautiful shower in Bryan! It was at a church there in town in a big pretty room. We had some delicious food....chicken salad of course and some punch I could just about die for. There were cute little favor bags filled with chocolate. I got three of them and have pretty much destroyed my supply...surprise surprise. We all know that all the teeth in my mouth are sweet teeth. So a big thanks to Aunt Kristin and Mimi for throwing a great shower for Camryn and I. Also thanks to everyone who was a part of it. Update on little Camie...she is soooo active it's crazy. I seriously feel her moving every hour and sometimes she kicks so hard I see it on the outside of my stomach. I love it so much. Now that our baby showers are complete..we pretty much have everything we need. I never thought we would get this much stuff but we did and we are so thankful. Miss Camryn is set and we are ready and waiting for her arrival.



Yummy food and cake!


The chocolate filled favor bags....the tags had an elephant and said Welcome Camryn Kay Turner


A very smart gift from my sister in law Kristin :)



Me with all my gifts....Camryn will need to look at these so she can see how much people spoil her



The hostesses and I...thank you both so much. It was great!

Keeps getting better!

So its been a while since I have posted on here and a lot has gone on. First I will tell you about our last appointment with Dr White. I was taken off bed rest the Monday after I was in the hospital...thank god! Also my placenta has moved up away from my cervix and the baby is breached...The doctor said that it can change but didn't sound too hopeful for the change. I was not at all shocked considering my condition with my uterus. We were already kind of expecting a C section. Who knows it all could change and I could be having her natural when the time comes. Either way I am happy as long as she gets here. :) Oh and when we had our ultrasound she was grabbing onto her toes with both of her hands. I didn't post pictures though because the two we got are no good. On to other news...Andy's Jetta is now resting in piece or actually probably resting in pieces. The VW finally bit the dust recently and he is now an owner of a 2010 Honda Accord which we are both happy about. Next topic, this past weekend my wonderful sisters threw me a baby shower for Camryn! It was great. There was so many cute details...like pickles and a candy bar! My sisters really know me too well. Camryn got extremely spoiled at the shower. So spoiled in fact that I ended up having to go to target with my mother in law to register for some more stuff for my next shower in Bryan with Andy's side! Also we have moved into our new house and we are lovingggggg it!

My wonderful sisters who threw Camryn and I the cutest shower ever!

Food, decorations, and candy bar at my shower :)

Look how spoiled we got! Big thanks to my sisters and everyone who was a part of it!


Think Camie has enough stuff yet?? :)

Moving, Marriage and Bedrest!


So Andy and I are officially married as of March 12th. We had a very small wedding since we have more important things in life right now than having a large wedding. We had about 45 people there. My group was all family because my family is huge and only a couple close friends while Andy's group was a small group of family because his family is small and alot of friends. I was so happy with how everything turned out. So a big thanks Daddy who made it all possible and to everyone else who helped along the way. We love y'all! I would have to say married life doesn't feel much different from boyfriend and girlfriend life other than me being a Turner now. I just love to hear people call me Mrs. Turner :) I am so lucky to have Andy as my husband...he is the best. Moving on (pun intended) we are moving on April 9th into are brand new house. We are soooo excited. The wait is finally over! Now for a little bit of bad news. Thursday night Andy and I had to make a trip to the ER. We went to dinner and I went potty and found that I was spotting when I told the doctor on call that I was told my placenta is too close to my cervix she wanted me to come in immediately. We were there for a couple of hours and everything turned out fine with our little Camryn but I am now on bedrest. YUCK! I have only been on it for 2 days and I am already going crazy so hopefully I won't be on it much longer. Although having Mama come over and make me biscuits and gravy while pampering me isn't all that bad haha. Now last thing...I felt Cam kick for my first time last night at about 10 pm. Of course it was late at night because she is a night owl like her mommy. Everyone has been telling me that it is her way of saying I'm ok! It was great to feel that...made me tear up a little bit.

It's a.....GIRL!

So it has been forever since I posted on here and I swear I am going to get better at this! Well we went to the doctor on Tuesday the 16th and our sweet little angel's heartbeat was 144 beats per minute. We went in and got our ultrasound and it was about 15 minutes before we found our it was a little girlie in there. :) I think everyone pretty much thought we were having a boy because my sister Katy, stepsister Brittany, and 2 of Andy's girl friends are having girls so we we thought oh yeah we must have a boy on the way but now we stand corrected. That is not the way the system works. Andy was really hoping for a boy (which most guys do) but he is happy with our girl. I know he will be even more happy once he sees how much love daddys get from their daughters. :) Another little tid bit of information...we were planning on naming our girl Emma Kay, well that has changed due to its popularity right now. Emma has been in the top 3 most popular girl names since 2003 so that changed our minds on the name. Our new name is.....Camryn Kay Turner. Her pictures are above...the top one is showing that she is a girl, the second one is of her feet, and the last one is of her face and tummy (which is a little freaky right now considering she looks a bit alien-ish).

New baby news

We had a doctor's appointment today and everything went great! Our baby's heartbeat went down again to 141! I think the baby is trying to tell us something....maybe that it's a boy (going by old wives tales). The heartbeat going down is completely normal, so that's good. I had some blood taken today to check for spina bifida which is basically testing to make sure our baby's spine has closed and fused together at the bottom. So fingers crossed that everything comes back clear with that.

We will go back in exactly a month from now, so March 16th we will find out the sex of our little soccer player or cheerleader :) As for names, Emma Kay won by a landslide and Mason won by a few votes over Colton. We are still undecided because I am a bigger fan of Mason and Andy is a bigger fan of Colton so we are torn. No names are set in stone yet, although I am very eager to do so!

Now I want to have a little voting contest to see what everyone thinks we are having...so...comment to tell me your vote please!! :) I know I am dork but I just really like to hear everyone's opinion.

Post your sex opinion because we would love to know!

The Name Game!

So a few new things since the last time I posted anything on here. Andy asked me to marry him ahhhhhhhhhhhh and I couldn't be happier! I can't wait to be his wife and a part of his family. I just have to do this because I am so proud of my gorgeous ring :)

Also we have pretty much finalized our name choices and we would like to hear everyone's input on your favorites. We don't want your opinion if you don't like them though :) Our girl middle name is set to be Kay after Andy's wonderful mother and it's just a pretty name so that works out perfectly. Our boy middle name is most likely Andrew after Johnny Andrew Turner (Andy). So here are our names

Boys: Mason Andrew Turner or Colton Andrew Turner

Girls: Emma Kay Turner or Jane Kay Turner

I also really like Hailey Kay but Andy isn't a fan at all :( Oh and one last thing, we took a trip to Frisco for Andy's niece's birthday party and who knew we would get gifts ourselves?! Andy's sister Kristin and brother in law Sean bought us our crib and his mother and father bought us our crib mattress. Yay!! So again big thanks to y'all!

POST YOUR COMMENTS ON FAVORITE NAMES :)
