27 weeks

Here's Mommy at 27 weeks pregnant!  You are getting bigger by the hour it seems, you are around 15 inches — more than a foot long!  You weigh just over two pounds.
You might even recognize Mommy's voice by now.  Mommy is starting to really feel a lot of pressure in her lower tummy and my legs are starting to hurt sometimes.  I also think we are starting to need more sleep again like we did in the first trimester.  Oh well, only 3 months left!

26 weeks

This week mommy is 26 weeks pregnant with you! Time is sure flying.  Next week is already Thanksgiving and before we know it, Christmas will be here, New Year's, Valentine's Day and then YOU!!!!  That will be the best day of all!!  It is so hard to believe that at this time next year Mommy will officially be, a Mommy!  I cannot wait to teach you things and love on you!  Mommy made an appointment next Friday, November 30 for a 3D sonogram, that is when Daddy and I will see your pretty little face inside Mommy's tummy.  I am SOOO excited!  Here's Mommy at 26 weeks.

PS-- check out my scarf.  I got it for my birthday from my friends at school!

Baby Shower Meeting & Registry

This morning Mommy, Nannie and Aunt Nancy met to talk about your Baby Shower.  We decided on a pink and zebra theme.  It was so much fun meeting with them and planning this day, I cannot wait to celebrate your upcoming arrival in a couple of months!  After the meeting Mommy picked up Daddy and we went to register for you.  Boy was there a lot for us to do!! Luckily Mommy's friend Amanda sent her a cool check off list that helped a lot.  It was a little stressful planning on what we need for you when you aren't here yet, but it was SUPER exciting at the same time.  Daddy took a couple pictures of Mommy signing up for your registry at Babies R Us.

My little jumping bean at 25 Weeks

Mommy is 25 weeks today, and if you cannot tell from the picture you are getting BIG!  You move around and kick all the time now.  You love it when Mommy teaches reading at school around 10:30, you move around while I am reading to the kids and while I am teaching reading groups too.  You also love it when Daddy comes home and hangs out with Mommy before bed.  You move a lot after dinner time when Daddy is talking to you and Mommy is relaxed.  We even saw you moving from the outside of Mommy's belly.

24 weeks!!

Today was Halloween, Mommy is also 6 months pregnant today! Here is a picture of us in our costume...

We were a Skeleton, complete with a pink bow on your head.

Busy weekend!

This weekend Mommy and Daddy were SUPER busy buying things for our FaVoRiTe little lady...YOU!
Luckily Mommy and Daddy were both off of work on Friday so we started the weekend with Mommy's 6 month Dr. visit.  After waiting forever, we finally got to see the Dr.  He measured you and said everything looked great, your little Buy After NFM Mommy and Daddy went to Carter's and got you a some new outfits.  I have a feeling you will be better dressed than the both of us!  Here's Mommy's favorite outfit we bought this weekend!

On Saturday Mommy and Daddy woke up early and headed to Panera for some breakfast, then we went to Wal Mart to get things to make Mommy's Halloween costume.  Once I got all of the things I needed we headed back home and Daddy got right to work on YOUR room, while I worked on my costume. 
Daddy moved all of the furniture out to get the room good and ready for your new crib.  After Daddy was done Grandpa Phil and Nanni came over to help Daddy built your crib.

Grandpa wouldn't pose for the pictures like Daddy, maybe that's because he was busy doing a lot of the work! =) Daddy's not super handy!
After they finished your crib, Nanni helped Mommy put some bedding in it to see what it looked like... almost PERFECT.  It will be completely perfect once you are in it come Feb!

After Grandpa and Nanni left Daddy and I organized your room, look at all of your stuff already!

After we did that Mommy and Daddy had a date night at home with a movie and popcorn and RELAXED!  It was a great weekend!  Love you!

23 Weeks!

Time sure is flying! Mommy is already 23 weeks pregnant with you and you sure are more and more active.  Although Mommy's placenta is in front of where you are, your little fists, feet and elbows are strong enough now for Mommy to really feel you!  Mommy even saw you move when she looked down at her tummy.  It was so cool! Daddy and I talk about you constantly we still 23 weeks later can't believe God has blessed us with such a little miracle!  We LOVE you!
