7 Facts About My 7 Month Old:

7. She is in 9 month clothing, size 3 diapers.

5. She loves to Skype.
4. She has been teething for the last four days, really bad, but....no teeth!
3. She loves to take baths, and loves to swim.
2. She is a very content and happy child.

Baby D

Today we had our ultra sound...click here to find out what baby is!

Baby D - 29 Weeks

 

Don't mind my jammies :) 

*Baby should be about 3 pounds this week. While I made made a land mark weight too...I won't say it, but I will say it begins with a 2 and end with a 02.

*I can now actually feel with my hands, a baby in my tummy...and it sure lets me know that its there!

*When I lay down on my side at night it starts moving...a lot. 

*Walking is still not too difficult, but tying my shoe is. 

* 2 weeks until we find out if "it" is a boy or girl.

*I can't eat enough baking soda and take about 9 vitamin pills a day. 

*My hormones are out of balance, but thankfully, Darrin's are not.

* I've had a few irregular contractions, and am doing other stretches/ walking to get ready for the big day!

They're Coming!

We are having our first, official visitors! Darrin's parents and sisters are coming for the weekend, and I couldn't be more thrilled! One of the downfalls to living 17 hours from home, is that it is so time consuming/expensive to travel! So we are so thankful that they want to come see us!

Here are a few things on the agenda:

* play sand volleyball

* grill out

* feel baby move

* shopping in greenville

* watch the husker game in greenville...yes Kat found a bar that will be showing the game, how awesome is she?

* go for lots of walks

* play games (yessss....I so love games.)

* watch a movie or two

* go swimming

* go to church

I just can't wait...they come in at 11pm tonight!

A little about me: When I know I have special company coming, I go crazy. I mean my apartment is never that messy or dirty,  but I vacuum places I normally wouldn't, I make sure that every room smells good, I bake too many treats, and I make sure every morsel of laundry is clean. This is always the way it was growing up, and so I feel like when people come see me, its deep cleaning time! Who's with me?

With that said, I better go organize my DVD's, clean my lamp bases, and reorganize the pantry.

Baby Dick!

24.4 weeks! My due date is December 12th...and this is the first picture I have taken! I feel now like my belly is starting to look pregnant round, and not just, well....round! After much thought, and going back and forth...we will find out what it is on October 7th! As for now, baby is kicking and moving all the time! I am have a large appetite...which has led to a lot of time in the kitchen.  Darrin is being the best encourager for walking. You would think that staying home all day it would be easy...not for this girl! On Tuesdays my birthing center offers free prenatal yoga, which I am have been attending, and I love it!

funny texts.

"Ever just have one of those days?"

Meet my hilarious brother in law, Shawn (Bentley's Dad!). I have known him longer than I have known my own husband, and he is the older brother every girl wants. (Right, Andrea?) Not only is he a good, hard working provider, spiritual leader, and best friend to my sister, he is hilarious! This particular cig is a fake candy one.
