I had my dr.'s appointment on thursday that went really well. i got my flu shots, yes they hurt, and no i didnt belt out in pain like i wanted too! but everything went well with that! I did find out that Isabella may be coming earlier then expected my dr. said that she is already starting to sit low and i get atleast 2 hard contractions a day! what does that mean? well if she is in the same position that she is now it means that i will most likely get a c section around 37 weeks because when they are sitting butt down legs up they say its almost impossible for the dr. to try to move them and if you go into labor it just stresses the baby, so i have an ultra sound again in 3 weeks after that appointment i have to start going every other thursday till mid dec. then once a week, im telling you everyone in that office knows me i dont even have to say my name to check in any more. being almost 28 weeks pregnant is kind of scary i might be bringing home a little one in 9 weeks isnt that crazy! ahh this has gone so fast! john and i still cant believe that were having a new baby! jake is more then thrilled, when he goes to the dr. with me he will ask is baby sister fine?

so we are in talks or getting our rent lowered due to them not doing there job and paying rent for a place that we cant even use yet. so hopefully that will all be delt with by saturday!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Baby news!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Isabella (bella for short) is doing great she is growing like crazy and i swear taking kick boxing classes inside. although she is still breach we are hoping that she will turn before my 32 weeks apointment otherwise they are going to plan on a c section ugh!!! my family doesnt do so well with an surgical procegure so my dr. said that she would use this as a last option. even the talk of a c section has john freaking out and i dont blame him, 1 he HATES hospitals, 2 he cant stand to see me in pain, when they thought i was going into labor not to long ago he was about to go nuts with them not giving me anything for pain!. 3 he hates the idea of having me get a c section he wont tell me why but all he says is that he doesnt like it. we took a tour of our hospital and i have been pre registered woohoo thats one last thing thats off my check list lol! but we did find out due to how much infection is going on only john and one other person can be in the roomw while i am in labor and jake cant be there until after the baby is born due to all the swine flu and regular flu thats going around. that was kind of upsetting to hear but i would rather be safe then sorry!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Well thats about all thats going on here well untill next time&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;xoxoxoxox&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Ash&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395557945670597282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HDQi87nCw4I/SuDfXVy7eqI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/-_Tzuk4eEeQ/s400/024.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Jake all dressed up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395558441737252642" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HDQi87nCw4I/SuDf0Nyb7yI/AAAAAAAAAMY/8rzKjzx9CaQ/s400/030.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;my little cheeser!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5406626706019838602-3933498390519155307?l=johnashandjakehaldeman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johnashandjakehaldeman.blogspot.com/feeds/3933498390519155307/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5406626706019838602&amp;postID=3933498390519155307' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5406626706019838602/posts/default/3933498390519155307'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5406626706019838602/posts/default/3933498390519155307'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johnashandjakehaldeman.blogspot.com/2009/10/happy-halloween.html' title='Happy Halloween'/><author><name>John, Ashleigh, and Jake Haldeman</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03406826920394238427</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HDQi87nCw4I/SQdPggnkO_I/AAAAAAAAADs/YNq81vexdEE/S220/christmas+pics.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HDQi87nCw4I/SuDfXVy7eqI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/-_Tzuk4eEeQ/s72-c/024.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406626706019838602.post-7803682884944268262</id><published>2009-09-17T11:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-24T14:41:40.223-07:00</updated><title type='text'>22 weeks!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt; Wow its so hard to believe that i am already 22 weeks pregnant. so many things have changed with the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;haldemans&lt;/span&gt;! &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Jake&lt;/span&gt; has grown up so much he is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;sooo&lt;/span&gt; excited to meet his baby sister, he thinks we can just go to the store and pick her up. we watched dumbo the other day and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Jake&lt;/span&gt; asked if baby sister would come in a blanket? ha john &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;reassured&lt;/span&gt; him that its kinda like that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;lol&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Jake&lt;/span&gt; has been talking like crazy he no longer points its full sentences. he had a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Dr&lt;/span&gt;. appointment just for a check up and the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Dr&lt;/span&gt;. gave us the go ahead to get him back on potty training and he is doing fabulous!!! he has only had 2 accidents in 3 days! for some reason everything just clicked this time. he loves to walk around in his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;underwear&lt;/span&gt; and show everyone his big boy pants. John loves the fact that we &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; buy diapers anymore but also the dirty diapers are no more....... well for now that is. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;I'm&lt;/span&gt; just so proud!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Being 22 weeks pregnant already has me freaking out! i feel like just yesterday was when i found out i was having a baby and now she has a name! here is the official name ISABELLA ROSE &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;HALDEMAN&lt;/span&gt;. I hate when people tell me that they &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; like it but whats important is that john and i do and where the ones that are going to be caring for her! Yes I understand that the name is popular but oh well i have loved that name since i was a little girl! any who I find that i am getting more tired each and everyday, but i &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;haven't&lt;/span&gt; been so sick since they gave me the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;zofran&lt;/span&gt; which is like a life savor! Last week i went into labor and delivery with sever cramping. it was to the point were i &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;couldn't&lt;/span&gt; breath. They got me in right away and ran some tests having 3 &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;dr's&lt;/span&gt; look at for 2 hours was horrifying. i felt like i was a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;Guinea&lt;/span&gt; pig in some experiment. well after my results came back they all came back in saying that my uterus was charlie horsing and there was nothing that they could do to stop it. so they gave me some &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;ambien&lt;/span&gt; and sent me on my way. I was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;extremely&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;grateful&lt;/span&gt; and upset at the same time. for a second there we thought that i was in labor they &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;couldn't&lt;/span&gt; relay the news that i &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;wasn't&lt;/span&gt; a little sooner? but other then that scare at 2 am everything else has been fine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;OCTOBER!!! is our big month! were moving out into our own place. were so excited and we cant wait to finally feel &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;independent&lt;/span&gt; and be able to enjoy our own place. we have been looking around at different decor and are having so much fun with it. from lamps to end tables it seems like no matter how much stuff we have it never seems like we have enough or that were always missing something! we ordered a new bed its a queen we cant wait its a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;seely&lt;/span&gt; pillow top! and with my &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;prego&lt;/span&gt; aches its going to feel amazing! we still have lots to get and so little time :) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;well &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"&gt;that's&lt;/span&gt; all for now hopefully that gives everyone a good update&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Love&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Ashleigh + John!!!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385150304588684882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HDQi87nCw4I/Srvlq5cYXlI/AAAAAAAAAMA/UeIICpp21DA/s400/big+baby+belly!.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;22 weeks along!

So as most of you know my sister in law Amy is having another baby girl landry. well if you know anything about me im like an old lady and love to be crafty. This time i decided that i wanted to make her a baby quilt my aunt made me one when i was little and i still have it. I knew that Amy was going with the colors red and yellow, I cant show the finished product until Amy+Landry see it but i do have a sneak peak. also this was all done by hand, i hate sewing machines, i could never work one if i tried and trust me i try all of the time hopefully they like it :) &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339199342346470642" style="DISPLAY: block;

the first thing he says when he wakes up now is bike ride? john and i thought one it would be fun for him and two it could get us some exercise. it seems lately were always outside from playing with side walk chalk to biking to going for a walk i think jake would live outside if we would let him!
