We're Home!

Hi Everyone,
We came home from the hospital yesterday afternoon and we survived! (Hee-hee...) Although we had an all night party (just as we expected), we enjoyed every minute of it! She is such a great baby and we are enjoying every moment of it!

She has a bit of jaundice so we made our first outing this morning, back to the hospital for some blood work (poor girl). We'll bring her back tomorrow again, just to be sure her count doesn't go up anymore, but overall she is doing great and we are SO thankful she is so healthy.

Baby Baier is Born!

It could be any day now...

Just a quick update for you. We had another doctor appointment on Wednesday. We (our doctor and Larry and I) decided if Baby Baier hasn't arrived by Monday morning, we'll be induced!

My blood pressure was a little on the high side and because my due date is Sunday, the doctor thought it would be just fine to get things rolling. (We'll just have to wait and see how long exactly it takes for that process, right?!?) It could be some time actually before she arrives but the plan is in place. We are just hoping for a healthy little girl and whenever she decides to arrive will be good.

We'll be sure to post lots of pictures for you to check out on the webpage. We can't wait to introduce her to everyone!

Baby Baier Meets Donald Driver!

(Donald is thinking, "Oh boy, look at that belly!")



(Karla is screaming, "Oh my god, Donald Driver just rubbed my belly!!!")

Things are going great at 37 weeks! We're all doing great. Our little girl is about 6 lbs (give or take some) the doctor estimates. It's so fun to literally see her body parts roll around in my belly!

Baby Baier had the opportunity to meet Karla's favorite Green Bay Packer, Donald Driver! Let's just say I am lucky I didn't go into labor right then and there when Donald stopped his bike (he was riding back to the stadium after training camp) and said to me, "OH, I just gotta rub that belly!" Yes, he actually got off his bike and rubbed my belly! Check out the before and after pictures of the event. The pictures don't do it justice but as you might imagine, it was quite a scene!

We also wanted to say thanks to all our family and friends who threw and were a special part of our baby showers. We are lucky to have you so many people that care about us so much. Baby Baier was "showered" with so many thoughtful gifts. I think she's spoiled already! That was very thoughtful-thanks again so much!

As our due date approaches, we just can't wait wait to meet our little girl and introduce her to everyone. We'll be sure to update everyone with exciting news hopefully real soon!

We're in Our 3rd Trimester!

It took a bit but we posted the picture from Karla's baby shower they threw us at her school. Things are going great. Baby Baier is practicing her cartwheels and summersaults more than ever! It's so amazing to watch her move all around. At our last dr. apt. her heartbeat was 164 beats per minute. Our dr. said she is a very active little girl!

This month we have some education classes we'll be attending at the hospital to help us feel a bit more prepared. We can't even believe we are in our final trimester already. With that, the heartburn has set in. I thought I might not experience that element but sure enough, I will! It looks like no more spicy food for me! I think Baby Baier was tired of eating brats! We hope everyone is having a great start to their summer.
