We finally have a name

Kendall Bradshaw Flynt..... Matt picked out the name Kendall. I picked out Bradshaw. That is my Mother's maiden name.

At my January appt., Kendall had gained weight as hoped 2 lbs 14 oz and looked really good. She wiggled and squirmed around for us. Caroline thought it was really funny and got excited at hearing K's heart beat. Every time the sonogrammer would scan over Kendall's head, she got a little irritated. She would hit and buck around letting us know that she didn't like anyone messing with her head. Man, she is like her Mommy already.

I survived a week with Matt and Caroline having strep throat. I think I squeezed through without getting sick although today, my throat is really hurting. They are both doing well and back to regular activities.

We have so much to do at our house before this baby gets here! Her room still contains a desk, computer, a ton of green tractors, and a closet full of camo!!! We will spend the new couple weeks getting that stuff moved to the new part of the house. I did order Kendall's bedding so we will start painting her walls soon. The bedding is yellow, green, and 2 shades of pink.... circles! We will use the same crib that Caroline used, dresser too.

I am really worried that I am not going to make it til April 2. I feel funny and in my head, I just keep having these thoughts. I hope I do make the 8 weeks I have left.

I go back to the doctor on Tuesday the 3rd, doing every two week appts now. When I went in January, I had gained a total of 15 lbs with 10 weeks to go.

Caroline is in the yard playing with spoons, forks, cups, and bowls. Digging dirt, enjoying life. It's nice outside today. I am glad she is able to get out and play. That brings back a lot of memories for me playing at Uncle Carl and Aunt Marie's house 28 years ago. I love those memories!!!
