33 week ultrasound

Today I had my ultrasound!!!!! And yes Mommy's intuition was right.........
NO POLYHYRAMNIOUS!!!!!! Oh I'm so relieved!! I can labor at home longer now!!
(well fingers crossed for that!)

This little babe is measuring in at 4lbs 9oz! We're right on track!
I'm feeling really good that things are going to go very smoothly the next 7 weeks and during labor! The power of positive thinking! :)
It was nice to have Marc's reassurance today- when Matt asked Marc during the ultrasound if the baby is a boy or girl he said
"baby's fine!!"

OH I LOVE HIM!!!

spreading the word!!

small details

Not the greatest pictures, but here are some small details for the baby's room!! Switchplate cover & memo board to match the bedding & curtains!!

Hopefully more to come.

pony rides

Matthew out golfing!

60 days to go!!

Holy crap only 60 days until baby is here!!!!!!!!!

31 week appointment

31 week appointment went well! Once again the boys tagged along & heard their new little siblings heartbeat!!! Matthew understands as much as a 4 year old does. Marc not as much, he'll tell you where the baby is but it doesn't go much further. Funniest thing when he heard the heartbeat he had the cutest little smirk but was looking & pointing at the machine where as Matthew knew that sound was coming from Mommy's belly!
My doctor is the best! He's engages both boys...got a smile out of Marc & makes Matthew laugh with his wiggle hand shake!
I go back in 2 weeks for an ultrasound due to my previous polyhyramnious with Marc. I think (fingers crossed) I'm in the clear, but we'll see. He was going to make it in 4 weeks then I reminded him that Matthew came at 36 weeks. I told him we'd be on vacation during my 34th week so we can't have a baby until after that!! HAHAHA He's on vacation that week too so he said he'd give me his cell #!! Honestly he's so dedicated! I had his cell after having Marc since I drove myself home from the hospital.....he even made me call to make sure I got home no problems! I think he REALLY wants to deliver this baby, he said he feels like he got jipped since he missed the last 2!! I'll do my best to make that happen.......but no promises!! Baby makes the call!!
My guess is 9/9/09 ........wouldn't that be cool?? And 7lbs 9oz & 20 in.
What's your guess???

30 weeks

Here's a shot of me at 30 weeks.
You're lucky....most of my shirts my belly shows!! LOL

the missing chapter

So with this being my 3rd baby I haven't felt the need to open one of those pregnancy books, although I will say there are things I certainly don't remember.....OR WAS I NEVER TOLD???

Let me fill you in on exactly what I'm talking about, this would be the last chapter of what to expect when your expecting (yet another).

By 30 weeks (or before)
-rolling over from one side to another may require 2 people... all while taking breaks
-shaving legs, if it occurs, will be interesting
-painting your own toe nails will not be pretty...or fun
-sneezing, coughing, or laughing might be embarrassing
-just because a shirt fit last week, doesn't mean it will this week
-the scale is NOT your friend
-being in your 3rd trimester during the summer months should have people wondering if you have completely lost your mind (twice for me!)
-the insomnia that people say is your body's preparation for sleepless nights is SO not necessary
-the stretch marks that you may dodge after baby#1 or 2 will come....goodbye bikinis!!
-you will be over OCD in all capacities!

Fish Hatchery

Daddy had off on Friday so we enjoyed the day doing local fun things!! Here's the boys at the fish hatchery!
