We have decided on a Name....

Blake Isaac....So I am pretty sure this is official unless I change my mind when I see him :)!!! We really arent going for all B names, it just happened to be a name we liked. Since I am talking about our new little guy, here is the latest on Blake. Just like his brother Brayden, Blake wants to come out and play a little too early. I have been having contractions here and there... nothing real consistent, just the usual Braxon hicks. This week however they have been coming more frequent and closer together. So for my regular checkup I told the doctor about them and she decided to do a Fetal Fibronectin test since I experienced preterm labor with Brayden, telling me the whole time that she thought it would be negative but just in case. Well turns out it was positive. Basically this test tells doctors that I am at great risk to deliver prematurely. So I am taking it easy and will be closely monitored by the doctors every week. So Blake, I need you to stay put for at least 8 more weeks (mommy's preference) or 7 if you want to be like your brother, but absolutely noooo sooner please.

Last week we went up to Eric's Families Cabin and it was beautiful. It snowed almost the whole time we were there. Anna came with us and kept Brayden company. They loved playing in the snow. Brayden wanted to be outside every minute of the day, the only problem was he could only stay on the driveway where it wasnt so deep or he would have been swallowed. That and I was freezing :) He quickly forgot about the snow when he discovered he could ride his Mater down his great grandmas wheelchair ramp. The thought process of him discovering this was priceless. He is such his Daddy's boy.
