Baby update



Oh, I am so behind in my updates - so sorry!

The pregnancy is sailing by! I will be 29 weeks tomorrow! It's hard to believe but, trust me, I feel all of that 29 weeks. I took the gestational diabetes test last week and passed. Which is great! And I also got my rhogham shot since I am a negative blood type.

At least my appt's are getting more exciting. Unfortunately, they are also getting more frequent. I go every 2 weeks from last week until week 36. Then it's every week until my c-section. It looks like that date will be somewhere between January 7th-9th. My dr. won't let me go over 38 weeks 4days so those are the choices.

Oh yeah! And on top of all this my beloved Dr. is switching practices! Of course, I go with her! So our final baby will be born at a different hospital than everyone else. It will be a change but we'll be fine!

Other than that, I guess not much else to report! Just trying very hard to enjoy this last go round! We feel so lucky to get to do this 4 times over! And man, the anticipation of boy or girl is killing me!!!

These pictures are of the belly at 25 weeks so I will post more later.

Halloween pictures



SO CUTE! This year we had 2 little pirates, 1 big Daddy pirate, 1 little ladybug, and 1 Mommy ladybug (with her own round baby belly!)We had over friends and family over to dinner and then were off to the fall festival at the preschool. It was a blast complete with games, candy, a cakewalk, music, a firetruck tour, barrel train rides, and a moonbounce. On the way home (we live so close we walked) we hit a few houses to trick-or-treat. It was a great night! Enjoy the pics!!!

Just voted...

So we stuck to that plan to vote early this morning. Eddie and I woke up the kiddos, grabbed some snacks for the wait, and off we went. We got in line at right before 6 am and by 6:45 we were headed back to our car. Right on! What a great experience! The kids were great! People even commented on them so they must have been good. And it felt great to vote! Of course, I voted for Obama/Biden and can't wait to watch CNN all day for updates! Eddie, on the other hand, voted for Bob Barr of the Libertarian party. I must say, I do agree with that party in many ways but felt my heart leans toward Barack. He is so inspiring and motivating! And in my opinion, just what this country needs! Stay tuned...

Hope your voting went as well as ours!!!
