Hospital Visits

Here are pictures of all our visitors in the hospital. There for 5 days since Samantha had to have a couple more days and antibiotics (high white blood cell count shows a flag for a possible infection as well as high then low temp. at birth).

But all was well and we came home on Tuesday June 22nd.

Peanut Arrives!

Samantha Marie Tomjack; 7lbs. 6oz., 20 in long at 9:09 PM. When she arrived Sam only cried for a little bit and then opened her eyes and was looking at me and Michael and around the room. She seemed so happy and content and was checking out the world for the first time. She was beautiful! I had to apologize to her for thinking she was a boy for 9 months, but Dad was right about her being a girl and that she would come out and meet us on her due date! She's wonderful.

Finished Nursery

Under the Sea theme for the nursery...Can't wait for Lil Peanut to be here!

39 Weeks: 10 days to Due Date!

Wow, I can't believe my due date is in 10 Days! Last week I had gained a total of 26 pounds, am measuring exactly where I am supposed to 39cm, and I was 1/2 a cm dialated (which I think is funny). I think now is a great time to compare shot of the belly from beginning to now...Crazy!!

36 Weeks: Memorial Wknd

It still surprises me how big I am and that I am so close to the end. So that means I can still get bigger...LOL. This weekend was Memorial Wknd and it was not only Mike's 28th B-day but my parents came down to visit and help us finish the last minute details for Lil Peanut. The nursery is now done and I am so excited! The nursery is now my favorite room in the house!

34 Weeks: School Baby Shower

This week had my school baby shower that my fellow fifth grade teachers threw for me. It was really nice and all my coworkers are very generous. All our family and friends are so great to have given the Lil Peanut such great stuff and necessities. Now we just need the Lil Peanut here to put all our things to use!!

30 Weeks

Here is the cheesy 30 wk grin!! Getting closer and closer. Went on a field trip all day to an island near Wilmington for work and was shocked at how well I did. Man was I sore afterwards and the feet were swollen!! That has taken some getting used too; the swollen body parts. LOL
