Today our little man is 3 weeks!! I can not believe three weeks have gone by, June needs to slow down. Last Friday Carson had his 2 week check-up. He weighed 7lbs and 9oz and was 20 3/4 inches long. He is growing as fast as the weeks are going by!

 He has really started enjoying bath time!

Introducing Carson Ross Bertholf

Carson was born on June 1, 2011. He was 7lbs 3 oz and 18.5'' long. Labor and delivery went well. My water was broken at 9:30 am on the 1st and he was here by 2:21 p.m. I guess he was in as big of a hurry to meet us as we were to meet him!!

Today he is one week old! And we have had quite a week. We were at the hospital till Friday morning. We spent the weekend "relaxing" and getting to know each other. We've also had a few visitors to meet our new little man. Monday morning was our first doctors visit. Carson had gained a little weight and the doc thought he looked great!

We tried having him sleep in our room in a pack and play but he prefers sleeping in his crib! He is already growing up too fast!!

Happy One Week baby Carson! We can't wait to watch you grow!



It's Your Due Date!

This morning we had our weekly Dr.'s visit. Everything looked great, except the fact that Carson hasn't arrived yet! So since our doctor has a vacation planned and doesn't want us to go past 41 weeks she scheduled an induction for this evening at 8. Kyle and I are doing some last minute errands, relaxing, and enjoying the last day as just us and the dogs. Keep our family in prayer that the labor and delivery is quick and there are no complications. We can't wait to meet our little boy!

Any Day Now!

We have 6 days till our due date! We are very anxious and excited to meet our little blessing. We went to the doctor yesterday before all the storms rolled in. Carson's heart rate was good and all my stats look good as well. Doctor felt like it could be any day now for Carson's arrival. If he doesn't come by Tuesday, our actual due date, we will go see the doctor that morning and make plans for an induction. I really hope he decides to meet us before then!!

Have a safe and wonderful holiday weekend, and keep praying our little man will have a May birthday!!

Love you all!

38 weeks!

We are 38 weeks today!! Our weekly check up went well. I'm still only dilated a cm and 60 % effacement, but Carson has dropped! Crossing my legs is now a thing of the past till he makes his appearance. His heart rate was in the high 120's. So, come on Carson we are ready to meet you!!

 His diaper bag and boppy are ready for the hospital.

On last get Away

This past weekend I was in a dear friends wedding in Fort Worth, TX. After talking to dr. last Tuesday we felt it was ok to go ahead and go out of town one last time before Carson arrives. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed our little get away.

Today was our 37 week check up. Everyone thing continues to look great. Carson's heart beat bounced back up to the 140s, and I am still only dilated a cm. 

 :( I was hoping he'd be ready soon! Tonight is our baby feeding class, its the last class we will take to prepare for our little guy. I'm hoping to get some get info, since I am a little anxious about breast feeding.



36 Week Check Up

We had our weekly check up today. I gained a couple more lbs., so I guess I was saving all my weight gain for the end! Carson's heartbeat was in the 120s. The doctor estimated Carson weighs a little under 6 lbs. She feels Carson will be under 8lbs when he is delivered. I hear these estimates usually aren't right, so we'll see how close my doctor gets. He is still in the right position and I was dilated 1 cm, so slowly by surely we really are getting closer!
