In terms of my pregnancy things seem to be going well. I have another ultrasound this coming Friday to check growth - hopefully it will show baby is growing great!! I, myself don't seem to be having any problem growing - I am just cracking 30 pounds . . . and still have 7 weeks to go. Here is a shot of the 32 week belly. I feel huge. In looking at photos I sure look more like 36-38 weeks from my last pregnancy. Oh my! Doesn't really matter I guess as long as I am growing a big strong baby!!
Here is Addy attempting to measure my stomach. Too funny.
We are continuing to make progress on all things around the house - baby's room, reorganization in Addy's room, general changes to make room for baby etc. It is so funny because with Addy I recall that by my baby shower - which was next weekend, I had the nursery totally done. Not the case this time at all. But that is okay, still got a few weeks. Here are some pics of the changes and updates.
Addy helping Daddy get the bookcase together for Charlotte's room.
The new crib arrived. Still feeling very sad about not using the same one we used for Addy (which was my crib) but we got worried about the adjustable side. Why take the risk? We are very excited about getting the crib together - seems all the more real!!
And we even have a carseat and stroller.
Meanwhile Addy continues to be such a great sport and help! She is always willing to help around the house and she seems very geniunely excited to welcome her sister. I still worry a bit and am working hard to think of things that we can talk with her about and plan for her that will keep her feeling special and important to us during this transition time.
Addy is so excited we found these matching outfits for little and big sister. When anyone comes over she carefully lays them out to show them off. Last night she tried on her's to make sure that it will fit just right.
Now that the crib is up, Ya-ya got to take a little nap in it to try it out.
When we actually have sunny weather Addy is outside playing on her scooter, her playset and trying out the new basketball hoop Grandma and Grandpa brought over for her. During the Seahawks pre-season game Grandma helped Addy make a hopscotch design in the back and she's been busy playing.
Addy got her very first postcard from a friend this week. She was so excited to get it from Savannah!
Here's hoping that the next 6 and a half weeks brings some completed house projects, some rest and special time with Addy Bear, and a continued healthy baby and pregnancy.
