Welcome Baby Scott

Hello Everyone!

We would love for you to meet Harlow Louise Scott!  Harlow and parents are doing great!  We just love her so much already!

I thought I went into labor on Friday night, went to the hospital around 9pm, and then sent home around midnight.  We went home and was there for about an hour...we turned back around and were in the ER by 1:00am.  Then, I was officially in labor.  By 2:15am I was comfortable and moving right along.  7:50am we welcomed our little baby girl! Tony and I couldn't be more proud!

Harlow is healthy and such a great baby.  Nacho met Harlow on Monday afternoon and is not too sure about her little sister.  It might take a few weeks for this to set in for Nacho.

Thank you to everyone who sent text, FB messages with their love and support during the last few weeks while we were waiting for our sweet girl! !  We are so lucky to have family and friends like you!


Thank you TONY!  Harlow, Nacho and I are SO lucky to have you!  You are going to make a GREAT daddy! Thank you!  I love you!



I'm a MOM!!!  It feels great!

Baby Scott 40 weeks


Well-  Here we are- 40 weeks.  I never thought I would make it this far.  Just a  few weeks ago the Dr. just wanted me to get to 37 weeks... and now a month later, we made it!  The full 40 weeks and then some.
We had a Dr appointment this morning.  Everything is going well.  We have a great plan for next Tuesday!  If baby doesn't come on it's own...then we will start to help it!  Sept 3rd could be Baby Scott's Birthday!  or it could come on Auntie Kim's Birthday on Sept 1st... and wouldn't that be crazy if we go into labor on Labor Day.... wouldn't that be something...


Little Baby Scott
How far along? 40 Weeks 3 days
Maternity clothes? mostly Maternity
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: This week has been a little tough.  I've had to get up to pee more often than usual.  I think it is getting me ready for night feedings :)

Movement: It's got to be getting tight in there.  Movement is a little less than what it used to be.  Dr said that was very typical!

Best moment this week:  This is a hard one...My mind has been on Baby all week...wondering when it will come into this world.

Labor Signs: Some- they just don't last.  We have an induction date set- Tuesday Sept 3rd will be the day if baby doesn't come on it's own this weekend!
Belly Button in or out? it's out
Wedding rings on or off? I have to put it on right away in the morning...or it doesn't go on
Happy or Moody most of the time: Mood swings are about gone, but still emotional, happy and excited more than anything!
Looking forward to: 4 more days until I get to hold my baby!!!!  We can't wait!


This is the LAST time going to the Dr withOUT a baby!  Last prenatal check up 8-30-13!!!  Next time we are at this building, we will have a baby!!!!  Excited!!!

Baby Scott 36 Weeks


Hello and Happy Day to you!
The weeks are flying by and we ONLY have 4 weeks left before Baby is Due!!!  Wow- it feels like yesterday that we just found out we are having a baby!  


We were so lucky to have Allison Olmscheid take maternity photos this past weekend.  We had so much fun!  Allison and I met 7 years ago when she was a junior in High School on the Sartell Dance Team and I was her coach.  Coaching and teaching dance has brought so many amazing people in my life.   Coaching to me was never about the WIN, to me is was more about the team of ladies I was surrounded with.  I was able to inspire young women and watch them grow into amazing adults!  That to be was and is the best part of coaching, the kids!  Allison was the 1st one to give me the thumbs up on Tony the 1st day he meet the team.  I will never forget that day!!!  

 Allison is a true blessing and is SO talented!!!  She was able to capture 170 some pictures of my little bump!  Thank you Allison, both Tony and I love the pictures!!!  We couldn't be happier with how they turned out!  I'm so lucky to have you as a friend!


Little Baby Scott
How far along? 36 Weeks 3 days
Maternity clothes? mostly Maternity
Stretch marks? Nope- I'm pretty proud of this!
Sleep: Dreams are coming back and I have about 5 pillows around me just to make it comfy!

Movement: Lots and lots of movement
Food cravings: SWEETS!  It's really bad this week!  And Cheetoe's.  YUM!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing that I can think of this week- but my nose is still strong as ever and I can smell everything really well!  So thankful Scentsy still smells good to me!!!
Best moment this week:  Walking in to my Dr appt this week with only 4 more weeks to go.  I'm still measuring small but Dr is totally ok with that because of my size.   I'm totally ok with not having a 8 pound baby :)  Baby is around 5 1/2lbs to 6lbs right now.

Looking forward to: My Baby Shower is this weekend!  I'm so looking forward to seeing my friends and family!  I hope I have enough time to chat with everyone!!!

Nacho will always be our 1st baby!

Baby Scott 35 Weeks


Hello and Happy DAY to you!  Hope you are having a great week!  Thanks for coming back to my blog!  When I started this blog back in February, I didn't realize how much fun and how much I would like doing a blog.  It is work and sometimes we rush to take the pictures, but I'm so glad I did it and I have the pictures to go back and to look at!  Now that we are coming close to an end, I'll have to think of another fun topic to blog about!  Looking back you can really see the changes that have happened in the last 8 months!  

Have a great day and be grateful for the life that you have!  

How far along? 35 Weeks 2 days---- only 34 more days to go!!!
Maternity clothes? mostly Maternity
Stretch marks? Nope- I'm pretty proud of this!
Sleep: this week has been so so.  One night I went to the sofa because I just couldn't get comfortable.
Miss Anything? This week I would have to say, I want my body back...Don't get me wrong, I love carrying a big basketball in my tummy, but my back is killing me!  I can only sit at my desk for a short period of time before I have sharp pain's in my back and above my ribcage.  
Movement: Lots and lots of movement
Food cravings: Ben and Jerry's- Midnight snack and A&W watermelon shushes!!!  YUM!!! I wish I could have a shushes machine at my house!!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing that I can think of this week- but my nose is still strong as ever and I can smell everything really well!  So Thankful Scentsy still smells good to me!!!
Best moment this week:  Getting more things ready for the baby and getting a letter yesterday from the clinic that everything is normal from our ultrasound last Thursday!   #doubleYAY!
Gender prediction: No clue.  I keep saying "him" when we talk about baby... but then I also say "her" or we talk to Nacho about her Sister coming to stay with her.
Labor Signs: nothing this week, so far!
Belly Button in or out? mostly in...
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Very emotional... 
Looking forward to: I'm dying to know what we are going to have.  A little Baby Boy or a little Baby Girl!  I think I will be finding out for the next baby we have.  This is way harder on me than I would have ever thought!



What do you think we are having?  Please post on my Facebook page!  And how about Names... do you have any suggestions?  We would love to here it!!!!

Baby Scott 34 Weeks


Hello Everyone!  It's July 18th and it is 93 degrees out right now and the dew point is 64 degrees in MN...yuk.  We are hoping for some rain to come in and cool it down a little.  I'm sitting in the AC with my feet up.  I hope everyone is having a great week!

Last week we had a great time in Indy at the Scentsy Family Reunion/convention.  They surprised us with SO much new stuff for all 3 brands...it's like starting the business all over again!  Tony and I have a new drive and are ready to stay on the course and push ahead!!!
If you are not on my Business Facebook pages, (Scentsy/GA or Velata) Please like them so you can see all of the new stuff!!!  New Scentsy Catalog out Sept 1st.  New Grace Adele Catalog out August 1st and don't forget about Velata, New Catalog out Oct 1st.  We didn't even see the new catalog yet for Velata...they have us on pins and needles until Sept 1st!!!  OH boy, I hope it's awesome!!!


Baby news- On Monday I had a baby appointment and found out that I'm measuring 2 weeks behind where I should be.  So today, we had an ultrasound.  Baby is growing and is right on track of where it should be, actually a day ahead of my due date.  AS of now, Baby is 5lbs on the dot.  Heart rate is in the 150's and as of today, everything looks ok.  We haven't heard back from the Dr as of yet, which to me is a good thing.  So just more eating, more water, more rest for the next 6 weeks to try to cook this little cupcake until it's ready to come out.

The cool part about the ultrasound today is that we were able to see where baby is and what it has been up to.  It has chubby cheeks, some hair, feet are about 7cm long, hands are cupped together by it's face and baby likes to push its bootie up and out and kick it's legs straight out!  I mean, why stay curled up in a ball...there lots of room in mommy's tummy!!!  Daddy's little golfer is working on it's stretches already.

Prayer are always welcomed our way!  Here's to baking the little cupcake a little longer!!!  Thanks for all of the support and text messages today!  I was a nervous wreak since Monday....



How far along? 34 Weeks 2 days
Maternity clothes? mostly Maternity
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Out like a light.. I love my naps too!!!
Miss Anything? I'm past the point of all of the stuff that you think I would want.  It's been so long...I wonder what a Mountain Dew would take like right about now?  I'm hoping that it will be gross so that I don't want one after baby... No caffeine since early January... that is a LONG time for me!!!
Movement: Lots of movement.  Today at the Ultrasound baby had it's legs straight out and just a kicking away on my left side.  I now know what I'm pushing on when I get a good kick.
Food cravings: Nothing too bad this week.  Sweet are still my fav!!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing that I can think of this week
Best moment this week:  Finding out Keith (Tony's brother) and Kelsey are having a BOY!!!!  They are Due Dec 4th!  The grandchildren on the Scott side is getting a bit boy heavy.  9 grandchildren... 1 unknown (ours) 1 little sweet girl and now 7 BOYS!!!  WOWZERS!!!!  
Gender prediction: We were strong and didn't find out again today at the ultrasound.  The tech said she would tell us...I had her turn off the screen so I wouldn't look...man it's so close...I just want to know!!!
Labor Signs: Some contractions, but they go away after I sit down for a while... that goodness!
Belly Button in or out? mostly in...
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Very emotional... I see or hear of a good story...I cry... 
Looking forward to: Working on getting the baby's room set up.  It's been a slow process.  We are taking my office and making it the baby's room.  Bit by bit each day it gets a little better and more done.  I'm hoping next week to get the larger items...like a crib, dressers, rocker all in place.  Then it will feel like we are ready...


My cheerleader and one of my ROCKS, My Mom, Mary Lynne Goenner!
