She is in a bit of a hurry...

Hello everyone~
This is Jessica (friend, neighbor, cousin:) I thought everyone in Natalie's "blog family" would want to hear the latest happenings in the Davis house... No there is no baby, but she could be here sooner rather then later! Here's the story:
Natalie went in Monday morning for a normal doctor's appointment and mentioned to Dr. Erickson that she had been having contractions, nothing serious, but they decided to check and see if she had dilated at all. So he checked her and Natalie said his eyes got really big and he told her that she was at 4cm and her water was going to break at any minute! So he sent her right over to the hospital. She got hooked up to all the machines and found out she was contracting every 2 minutes! So they have stopped those yesterday finally, because she still has about 5 1/2 weeks left, they did another ultrasound yesterday and found out that the first lady that did it and told them she was almost 5lbs was wrong! She is almost 4lbs! So she is still just a little to tiny to make her entrance! Natalie has to stay in the hospital until she arrives, she is already going crazy!! Poor thing! She has been given 2 steroid shots to help her lungs develop faster and the baby has passed every non stress test so far, so they both are doing good, just bored!
Everyone who is wondering about the shower that is supposed to be this Saturday... It's been postponed until after she is here! So hopefully no one will show up to the Davis's on Saturday! ;)

Don't worry about Kolsen either!! He is being spoiled at Grandma and Grandpa's house!!
And because Jessica can't post without a picture... Here is one I took a year ago of Kolsen!!


Don't worry I'll be sure I keep you all posted on the latest and when anything chages!! Also if you leave a comment, I will be sure Natalie gets it!! Please just keep them in your prayers!!

The Phoenix Zoo



We have had such an eventful week this week. Jason has had spring break so we have been able to some fun family things. One of which was a trip to the phoenix zoo. We had so much fun and Kolsen loved to see the animals and get to run around. The only bad thing was on Tuesday or Wednesday he got a bug and has had diarrhea. So we would have to check him every few minuets to make sure it wasn't getting everywhere. Pretty gross I know, but the poor guy did such a good job and still had a lot of fun even though he didn't feel very good. He is doing much better now and hopefully the bug is through his system. We have gone through almost 2 packages of Costco diapers in the past 4 days which tells you how bad it was. Other than that we have been doing pretty good and have just been staying busy around the house and getting ready to pop this baby out. She is getting so big and you can see her moving so much now. I have started having contractions (just braxton hicks which aren't too bad) so I know she is getting ready to come. We are so excited to have her here and can't wait to meet her and introduce her to Kolsen. I have heard that it is a good idea to get the older kid a gift for when they come to see the new baby at the hospital. Did anyone else do this and if so, what kinds of things did you get? We would love to hear some suggestions. Hope everyone is doing good!!!
