The goings on.

I'm feeling very well. I starting to get tired of being pregnant, which isn't too good since I still have 3 months to go! I know that I will make it through though. It seems like it's getting closer though. Jeff brought out all the baby stuff from the attic and I got to work sorting it all out and putting it away. The closet in the girls room is now organized and neat. i was suprised once I started putting away what didn't fit Sophy anymore how very little she had left! I think I'll have to go shopping soon. I also noticed that many stores have started putting out their easter dresses! I love easter! Sophy was so cute last year and this year she'll be even cuter!
For those of you have said something I want to say Thank you for all the compliments on Sophy's cute picture. And no I haven't heard anything from Regis and Kelley yet. I'll be excited of course so I'll be sure to tell everyone!
Here's what baby center says about the baby:
Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight a pound and a half doesn't sound like much, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for a more rounded one. As your baby gains weight, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. His hair is probably recognizable now in color and texture, although both may change after he's born. Babies born with red hair can turn into blonds, dark-haired newborns can grow up with fair tresses, and blonds often turn into brunettes. For African-American babies, the big surprise tends to be texture. If your child is born with large, soft curls, they may get tighter and a bit coarser in his first six months of life.

Sophy in the Sink

Sophy decided it was more fun to sit in her sink than play with it. So here is a picture of her in her sink. She took the plastic sink out first, then climbed on top of the stove, then climbed into the sink, then sat down. She then looked at me and said "oww". Silly girl! Her daddy came and saved her and got her out the first time. Since then she got in about 3 more times and had to learn how to get out on her own. I laughed a lot the first time so she thought it was funny, hard to get her to stop after that. I learned MY lesson. Never openly laugh when they are being naughty.
For those of you wondering, we didn't get tons of snow dumpped on us, instead it's freezing rain and ice! Just what we needed! More ice. I'm really sad though, because I like snow. I wish we had gotten the 10 inches that were forcast. Now if we get any it'll only be a little. Oh well. I need to move to denver for snow I guess.

Ice and baby news.

We have been snowed in for so long! On friday the freezing rain and sleet started. It came and went until monday. By monday the freezing stuff stopped, but the damage was done. We have yet to get above freezing. It's supposed to get to 33 degress today for a couple hours and tommorrow we are supposed to get to 40 degrees. It would be happy and helpful if it wasn't for the fact that they are now prediciting 2-4 inches of snow for this wekend. So it's still going to be yucky for a while longer. We did make it out for a trip to the store and yesterday the wonderful Jessica helped me get to my ob visit and then came over to let the kids play! Sophy needed a good day of play to wear her out. She actually slept all night long and we had to wake her up this morning! Yea! Jeff got his new game expansion and he's been enjoying playing ever since, well after work that is.
My doctor visit went really well. I finally gained some weight so my doctor was happy. The baby looks good. I have to do the glucose test next time I go in, but it'll be ok. I'm carring very low so it's a little uncomfortable. I'm officially 24 weeks so I'm almost finished with my second trimester! We also set our c-section date. May 3rd. So as long as nothing happens (I go into labor or my water breaks early) I'll have a baby May 3rd. It's a thursday so hopefully I'll be home by the weekend and able to recieve visitors. It's kinda weird, because it makes it so much more real.
Here's what baby center says about the baby: Your baby's growing steadily, gaining about a quarter of a pound since last week, when she was just over a pound. Since she's almost a foot long, that makes a pretty lean figure, but her body is filling out proportionally and she'll soon put on more baby fat. Your baby's skin is thin, translucent, and wrinkled, her brain is growing rapidly, and her taste buds are developing. Her lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" and cells that produce surfactant, a substance that helps the air sacs inflate easily.

New Picture!

Here is a great picture that Jeff took tonight. I might use it instead.....what do you think? Add it to the list. It's number 5.

Beautiful baby pictures!

Last week was busy! We had a new year's day party at my friend Jessica's house. It was fun. Good food, friends and lots of games. The kids all ran around playing together as well. On tuesday we got a call that Jeff's great aunt passed away so on wednesday evening after Jeff got off work we rushed off to Texas. We spent the night with my Grandad in Longveiw. On thursday morning we went on down to Lufkin and got some time to visit and meet more family. We were able to attend the visitation before we had to leave. Boy were we tired when we got home! A whilwind trip if ever there was one. Both Jeff's phone and mine died on the way home, so we had to wait until we were home and they were charged before we could call anyone. Once home we had to clean and organize! It's time to prepare the baby's room! So we have a new loft bed for the twin and sophy's toddler bed and I'm using (Gasp) Purple for the new baby. So we are working purple into the room.

Bradley and Jessica got us a zoo membership for christmas so we went to the zoo while it was still nice so we could get our new zoo card! It was actually REALLY nice weather. The tiger was even out! He's ALWAYS hiding.
