Our new arrivial...............

Acelynn Jane Hensley arrived on Thursday March 12th via naturally!!! She weighed 7# 7oz and is 20.5" long. Everything with labor went great & fast. I am recovering well and Acelynn is adjusting to life at home, but we are battling jaundice. Hopefully her numbers go down today and we can stop the phototherapy. Ava is adjusting well to being a BIG sister and loves to give Acelynn hugs and kiss and loves to hold her.


I will add more pictures when I have some more time....

Almost done......

Well there is a God and he was listening to my prayers.....I went in on Tuesday for my 39 week check up. Everything was good, my weight (only 17# gained with this one), my blood pressure, my stomach measurement (right on target at 39) and the baby's heart rate at 146 bpm. The only thing that was different than the past couple of check ups is that the baby's heart beat was below my belly button and above my right hip. Yes, that means the baby is HEAD DOWN!!!!
It flipped sometime between Sunday and Monday. So, doc decided to check me and I was dilated to 1cm and 70-80% effaced and he felt the hard head. So, he sent me for an ultrasound to confirm head placement. Sure enough, the baby's head is down. So, my c-section has been canceled for Thursday and an induction has been scheduled instead (Thank You Lord). So, hopefully things go smoothly and quickly and baby Hensley will show its face sometime tomorrow!!!! We will keep you all posted!!!
Thanks to everyone that has been keeping us in their prayers (It worked!)

Start the Countdown...

At my 37 week appointment on Tuesday everything checked out great except that the baby is still breached. So, my doctor who doesn't do surgeries referred me on to another OB that does. Kyle and I met with that doctor yesterday to see what he thought and so on.......well, he said the possibility that the baby will turn from now until it's due is very unlikely (there is still a chance but a very small one). He did an ultrasound in his office and the baby hasn't moved since my last ultrasound. So, this baby will be here via c-section on March 12th, unless it comes on its own before then. They will let me deliver vaginally if the baby flips, but if I go into labor and the baby hasn't flipped they will do a c-section. Either way this baby will be here in 13 days!!!!!

36 weeks and breeched..........

I went to the doctor on Tuesday for my 36 week appointment ( I am now going every week until birth day). Everything is getting ready for the big day except the baby. The baby was not head down like it is suppose to be......so my doctor sent me for an ultrasound on Friday to see how exactly the baby is laying. Sure enough I have a butt between my hips besides mine. The US tech said there is still a lot of fluid in there for the baby to move and the baby is moving/kicking constantly. So, hopefully it will move on its own when it is ready to come out.
I go back to the doctor on Tuesday for my 37 week check up, so please keep your fingers crossed that this baby turns on its own....
at 36 weeks
Ava just got done kissing my belly (Kyle wasn't quick enough with the camera and it was the only time that night she would do it)

Baby's room

Here are a few pictures of the nursery. It's not quite done, but it's getting there. The walls are still pretty bare, but I'm waiting to see if we have a little girl or boy to finish the decorating!!!!







Ava's new room

We moved Ava into her new room about a month ago, but we just put her into her big girl on Sunday. She loves her new room and plays in there alot.
