36 Weeks

It is hard to believe I am already 36 weeks pregnant and going to be visiting my midwife once a week now. At my appointment today I found out the baby is still head down (PTL), heartbeat is 133bpm, and he weighs a low 5 pounds. I was excited to hear that, because I have felt smaller and do weigh less than I did with Hallister at this point in the pregnancy. She even predicts that Sweet P will be a low 6 lb baby when he is born, so that is encouraging! I am not dilated any, which is fine by me. We have an early anniversary trip planned next weekend and I don't want to go into labor while in Dallas. Also, since we are praying and planning on having a VBAC I will not be induced, so this baby will come when he is ready! We look forward to sharing updates each week until that day arrives.....

Sweet "P"

For being a faithful blog follower you get a hint at our baby boys' name. His name begins with a "P".

We call him our little Sweet P.

Rollercoaster

We went to a garage sale Saturday morning and found this awesome toy. Jonathan had the brilliant idea of putting it at the top of our hill in the backyard so Hallister would be able to coast on it even longer. He absolutely loves it!

20 Months Old

Already 20 months old....time flies when you are having fun. I sleep most mornings until 7am, but sometimes still wake up at 6:30am. Most days I still take two naps, at least an hour long. The first is around 10am and the second around 4pm. When I don't take both naps I get overtired at night. I have had a few night terrors where I cry and grab my B.B. and I just want to be close to Mom and Dad, so I get to sleep with them. I still sleep with a pacifier, but seem to still be getting teeth as well. My favorite thing to do is go in Mommy and Daddy's closet to put on Daddy's shoes. I don't eat a whole lot, still Fruit Loops or Oh's for breakfast along with a banana. For lunch it is peanut butter crackers, PB&J, peaches, and animal crackers. For supper I tried steak the other day and really enjoyed it. Mostly I like pasta and still have sweet potato baby food since I won't eat regular vegetables. I am getting better using a fork and spoon. When I am done with my meal I sign "all done" and hand mommy or daddy all that is left on my tray. There is a talk of someone else coming into our home soon. I know I will be a big helper with my little brother....sharing the toys I once used, the room I once had, and telling him how to get what he wants with these people called "grandparents".

Fruit Loop Dance

Hallister almost puts the fruit loops in his ears, but then decides it is more fun to dance with them.
