Well we are officially 39 weeks! It is so hard to believe that I might only be pregnant for 1 more week...
I am really excited for the arrival of our families, for the arrival of baby Ellie!
The Dr. appt went well, she is meassuring on time & sounded perfect with a heart rate of 136! We discusssed induction (everyone around here is itching to have a baby by 39 weeks) but we are going to wait it out a little longer. My 40 week appt. is scheduled for Wed. the 3rd, our due date. They are going to do another ultrasound to check her size. If everything still looks good & she doesn't come on her own, then we will do a cervidil induction on Sunday the 7th night into Monday the 8th morning! WOW~she will definitely be here by 3-8-10!!! Cannot believe it!
I have a feeling that she will come on her own time but at least now we have a definite day in mind. With Chad's schedule I was a little worried about how scheduling something would be, but I think it will actually work out ok. He has a mandatory meeting Friday the 5th-Saturday, so if anyone is listening ... ellie... not a good day little one! And the 5th is my birthday - I would really like her to have her own day, but of course I would share with her =)
All of our close family & friends have been SO thoughtful throughout the whole pregnancy! We appreciate all the checking in phone calls/texts & thoughts/prayers! We feel blessed to be surrounded with such love & support!
I am looking forward to introducing her to everyone ~ like Chad said, "look out world"

This is all new!

THE MOSS' officially have a blog!

My friends will be so proud!

I actually started this yesterday & while trying to edit the post ... I deleted it! Whoops~

So, here I go again.

I never felt like I had anything to blog about until now! Chad & I are excpecting our first child in March! Yes, I am 38 weeks pregnant & we are having a baby girl! We are so so excited & cant wait ot meet her! Her name is Ellie Marie~

For you guys that know us - another girl in the family is hard to believe! We all thought we would have a boy since Chad & I both have all sisters ... but we are THRILLED to be having a daughter & she will fit right in! She has more cute, pink, monogrammed things than you could even imagine! A friend of mine said 'she won't have any trouble spelling her name'!! haha~very true! And Auntie Annie is already calling her a Diva!

We are settled here in Johnson City. Chad has began his surgery residency & we will be here 4 more years. We miss our friends & family (in Nashville & Memphis). But are looking forward to starting our family here!

I am a L&D nurse! With only one more week of work ... I am ready for a break! After my last shift - I plan to get a mani/pedi and enjoy the last week of pregnancy! She will be here soon!!

Thank you for all the thoughts & prayers as we await the arrival of Miss Ellie~We will keep you posted.
