SURPRISE....KAYMBREE IS HERE!!!

KAYMBREE IS HERE!!! We are so excited to have our precious baby girl at home! She is such a miracle and our life has completely changed for the better!! She is so beautiful and we love her more than anything in this world. She decided to come 2 weeks early and to be a May baby instead of waiting till June. She is very healthy, she has a little jaundice that we are trying to get out of her quickly. But she lights up the room and I could stare at her all day long. I love her so much that it hurts and I can't believe the overwhelming feelings of being a new mother. I am so blessed to have her for eternity and that Heavenly Father trusted us with his child. Dan is the BEST dad ever an d I am so thankful for all his help. I am recovering well and have never been better. Here are a bunch of pictures and there are many more on the way.

Kaymbree K. Henry was born on Sunday May 31, 2009 * 7lbs 2oz *19.5 inches.

CATCH UP!!!!

Okay so I haven't been so good at blogging lately. So here is what has been happening in my life lately. First is the pregnancy update: I am dilated to a 2 and have a scheduled inducement on Thursday June 4Th. But this past weekend I seriously thought I was going into labor!!! I was contracting all night and day on Saturday. They were 5 minutes apart about 30 seconds long. We really didn't know what to do and so we called my doctor. He said to take a warm bath to see if the contractions spread out. So they started not being as consistent. I was in a lot of pain and got a small glimpse of the pain of labor. I still have been contracting every day since but just not as much. Dan and I decided we might want to pack for the hospital and get ready for our little baby! I know we are so bad that we hadn't packed yet, but now we are ready to rock and roll. I have another doctor's appointment tomorrow and can't wait to see if there has been anymore progression. I feel like so much in my body has been changing this past week. I can't believe I am so close to being a mommy! I have a little over a week before Kaymbree is here. We can't wait!

Here is the other things that we have been up to! I am starting from the most recent and going backwards. Sorry about the long post of Catch Up!

HENRY FAMILY MEMORIAL DAY

We went to Orem to celebrate Memorial Day with Dan's family. We had a basketball tournament, barbecue, and softball tournament. It was a lot of fun even though I didn't get to play. It was fun to watch the kids and just enjoy hanging out with the family.

What A Weekend!!!

So this weekend was very eventful in the Henry home. First of all on Friday my cute husband had his 26th birthday!!! So we celebrated by working all day, going to baby doctor's appointment, and then going to Chic-Fil-A. I know sounds like a bust for a birthday celebration, but we had a fun time. We had to go somewhere quick to eat because we went to TOADS FUN ZONE to play with some family. Mainly, Dan wanted to try out his birthday present..... a new Taylor Made Burner driver. So we hit some balls, played laser tag, and rode the go-carts with some of our family. I basically watched everyone and helped with the kids. It was a lot of fun. Thanks for celebrating with us!

Katie and Parker got Dan the cutest present for his birthday. Little black & pink Jordan onsies that are in a jersey fabric. With a matching beanie and booties. They are so cute we can't wait to see her in them. Thanks Parker & Katie

*I love you so much Dan. I can't believe this is the 5th birthday I have gotten to celebrate with you. You are my entire world and I am so blessed to have you for eternity. You are the best husband and are going to be the best dad! I can't wait to start our little family together. Thanks for all you do for me babe! I love you!

--------------------------------------------------

Then on Saturday I had my family baby shower. Thanks to my sisters Carrie, Katie, Trish and my mom it turned out great. Thanks to all my family for coming, I really appreciate it! It meant a a lot to see all my family and to share this special time with them. I don't have any pictures because they are all on my mom's camera. But I got spoiled!

--------------------------------------------------

Then after the shower we had a mother's day party while my mom was in town. It was so awesome because it was a secret. We wanted to do something special for my parents this year so we got them Eagles tickets for Saturday night. It was a Mother's Day & Father's Day present. My dad LOVES, LOVES, LOVES the Eagles and they were playing their LAST concert in the USA at the Rio Tinto Stadium. So we gave them tickets as a surprise and said, "You guys better leave here soon to your concert!" They couldn't believe it was that night. It was so fun to see their faces so surprised and happy. They were so excited and had a great time. Mom and Dad you deserve it and thanks for all you do for the family. I love you so much and I am so grateful that you are my parents!! Happy Mother's & Father's Day!

How cute are they? I just love my family!

33 WEEKS!!!

I am 33 weeks and counting! Here are some updated belly pics. Dan and I were messing around with our camera and photoshop. It is getting so close, we can't believe it!

Hit Me Baby One More Time!!!!

The Britney Spears concert was last Tuesday and it was such a blast with my girlfriends. I remember why "crimped" hair wasn't in style for very long, but we brought it back that night! Don't make fun of our hair and makeup, we were just getting "britneyfied". The concert was great and we had the BEST TIME!!! It was a blast getting with my girlfriends and seeing all the crazy people (besides us of course) that go to Britney's concert! I always laugh and have a good time with my wonderful friends. Thanks girls! I love you all!

General Conference April 2009

My dad had extra tickets to the 2pm Sunday Conference session and invited Dan and I to go. Neither of us have actually been to a General Conference so we were very excited. The Gospel is so amazing, and I am so blessed to have it in my life. It was wonderful to see how many people were there who love and support this church (plus the millions watching from home). We are so blessed to have a living modern day Prophet to lead us. I felt so comforted this conference by the words of hope and faith. No matter how hard these times might be, we must have faith. This last month I have really felt so blessed and overwhelmed with the comforting spirit. Going to conference was the cherry on top. Thanks dad for having us!

The Big 23!

So my birthday on St. Patricks! I turned 23 years old! It was a fun day and even though Dan was out of town he made my birthday great! He took me to lunch the day before and bought me new shoes, perfume, and a glider for our nursery! Then on my actual birthday my work friends brought me the cutest cake, balloons, and cards. Then we went bowling during lunch! It was so much fun to get out of the office and have some fun in the middle of the day! We played "goofy bowling" and were trying all these different ways to try and bowl. I had to go to a lighter bowling ball then I usually play with since I am pregnant and weak. Lets just say I was still sore the next day!

How do I feel now that I am 23? I can tell you I am starting to freak out a little. I am getting a lot closer to having my baby! I am due in the first of June and March is pretty much over. So I basically have April and May and she is going to be here! I am so excited for her to get here! To enjoy the summer with my little girl and kiss her cheeks a million times a day! But, I still have so much to do, and I know my life is going to change dramatically. I have always wanted to be a mom and I thought I was so ready. But at the same time I don't think you can ever be "really ready" for motherhood. Basically, what I am trying to say is I am getting a little scared. I have feelings of inadequacy and pure excitement at the same time. I don't know if it is my pregnancy emotions hitting me or what! But it is getting to be a surreal experience. I am in my 3rd trimester already!
