Baby Annabelle!

Aaron and Trish had their baby! She is beautiful! Annabelle Grace was born at 4:06 pm on Sunday weighing 7lbs 11ozs and looking oh so cute with a full head of dark hair! They all came home from the hospital today and I took Sophy over to greet them. Sophy wasn't too happy about her at first, but by the end we were having to intercept all the "gifts" she kept bringing over to her. It was very sweet.

Sophy is teething and very grumpy, but other than that she is fine. I expect a tooth to appear any day now. Jeff made it home safely, even if all his bags did not. Both Sophy and I are very happy to have him home! I am fully over my cold with only a little lingering stuffiness and congestion. We got a new big humidifier for our room so hopefully that will help out. It sure made a difference last night!

I am officially 29 weeks pregnant today! I will deliver at 39 weeks so that means I only have 10 weeks to go! Wow! Where did the time go? I feel like I lost at least a whole week in there somewhere. The baby finally flipped and I feel her kicks up high now, so that is really good. Here's what baby center says about the new baby right now: The baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is growing bigger to accommodate her brain — which is busy developing billions of neurons. With this rapid growth, it's no surprise that the baby's nutritional needs reach their peak during this trimester. To keep yourself and her well nourished, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamin C, folic acid, iron, and calcium. (About 200 milligrams of calcium is deposited in your baby's skeleton — which is now hardening — every day.)
