The Guion Family: the 38th week

the 38th week

On Tuesday I had another appointment to check and see how our little lady is doing. After the appointment I looked back at my old posts from the end of my pregnancy with Parker and I felt like I was having deja vu! There wasn't that much change from last week, but we were still 2 weeks away from my due date. He said that her heart beat is very strong...and very loud. Dr. S said that she much know she has a big brother to compete with! Right now she is about 6 1/2 pounds and measuring exactly right for her due date. He said that if I make it to my due date that she'll be about mid-7's (also exactly the same as her brother).

I have to admit that when I left the office I was a bit disappointed that more hadn't changed, but hopefully that doesn't rule out the VBAC option. Now that a couple days have gone by I am back to being optimistic...but I've made it through a C-Section before and I know I could do it again if it comes to that.

We will keep everyone posted on Delainey's progress!

On a happier note, we got Parker his first slip-n-slide and he loved it! He had such a blast and it has been so hot here that it was a great way to beat the heat but still be outside. Here are some pictures of our water baby (who isn't a baby anymore).

Travis and I met when he was a freshman at Eastern Washington University. Neither of us were looking to fall in love or even looking for someone to date...but fate stepped in and gave us a huge shove into a relationship that will last a lifetime. I graduated from EWU with my BA in Elementary Education with a Major in Mathematics and a Minor in Reading. I could not be happier with my decision to become a Teacher and feel it is what I was meant to do (along with being a Mommy). After I graduated, we fell in love with a little rescue puppy and just had to make him our own. We named him Deacon...and still have no idea what kind of dog he really is. We were married on September 8, 2007 at Central United Protestant Church in Richland, Washington. This is the same church where my parents and sister were married and the place where I feel the most connected to Christ. On October 18, 2008 we welcomed our son Parker James into the world (almost a week after his due date). He was totally determined to stay in my tummy. Parker is so curious and sweet. He truly keeps our lives interesting! In June of 2009 Travis graduated from EWU with his BA in Criminal Justice and Minors in Government and Sociology. We try to live everyday to the fullest and to live with no regrets. Travis joined the United States Air Force in June 2010. It was difficult to have him away from home for so long during training, but it was all for the greater good. In January of 2011 we packed up the U-Haul and moved to Oklahoma and our first duty station at Tinker Air Force Base. We were thrilled to welcome a baby girl into the world on August 29, 2011. We named her Delainey Kae and she totally completed our little family. Our children are our world and we are so blessed. There is no greater gift in life than family and we are well aware of it. We are so excited to start the next chapter of our lives as a family of 4 {living who knows where} and to see what else the Lord has in store for THE GUION FAMILY!
