37 weeks!

Hi everyone, well some word probably has gotten around and I know some of you have been waiting to hear the story...so this morning scott and I headed up to the Brekkes to pick up their trailer with a load of dirt to do some landscaping around our house before snow comes. We got a pretty good load, only about half the trailer and started back for home...we made it about 5 miles and all of a sudden the trailer started fish-tailing. Scott tried to slow down a little bit (we were only going about 50mph) and it got even worse, next thing we know the trailer had whipped us around and we were facing the opposite direction facing oncoming cars. We were very lucky there were no cars in the other lane or directly behind us when it happened or it could have been pretty bad.

Luckily Scott is very calm in those situations so he was able to hand it good and keep us from rolling the truck. On the unfortunate side it ended with the trailer Jack-Knifing and putting a pretty good dent right over the gas tank which Scott and my Dad had just done work on a few months ago. Hopefully it is drivable and we will just worry about the body work later.

God was protecting us and our little Skye! Just wanted to let everyone know we are ok though since I know it is easy to get bits and peices of a story. I also had my 37 week appointment this evening and she is perfect! Heart beat and size is great :) I also had some contractions yesterday...very sporadic but still a good sign I guess! Keep us in your prayers-love you all!

36 Weeks 2 days and counting!

I had my 36 week appointment on Tuesday and everything looked very good still, it seems we have a very healthy, active little girl and are so pleased everything is going so well. Of course I am beginning to get to that stage where it is hard to move around and I can't sleep, but luckily I have a very sweet husband that does all he can to try and keep me as comfortable as possible. 

Skye had a baby shower at our home this past Saturday with the Brekke and Fischer sides. It was so much fun...Donna, Heather and Jen put a ton of work into it and it turned out great! Thanks to everyone for all the great gifts and company! Now that all the excitement of baby showers is over, we are just counting down the days until she is here :) 

I will have pictures from the shower up later...for now I will just post pictures my friend Abbey took for  us!
