Family Update.

Sophy is doing very well. She seems very intrested in baby Annabelle most of the time, but would rather play or bring her toys than sit still and hold her. We got to go see baby Annabelle on Sunday and we got a picture of the two girls together. I think Annabelle looks a lot like Aaron, but in a girly way.
Jeff and I are doing well. We've gotten back to normal life with Jeff back and it's been nice, busy, but nice. We appreciate Jeff a lot more after he has been gone for a while. Luckily there are no more trips planned for him in the near future. So maybe he won't have to go anywhere until after the baby comes.
I'm now 30 weeks! 3/4 the way through this pregnancy! It seems like it is going really fast so I know it won't be long. I had a doctor appointment today. Just a check up. I'll be going every two weeks now. The baby looks good and I've been gaining weight so I'm back to my prepregnancy weight. That makes me kinda sad, but I know that it is good for the baby. I'll go back at 32 weeks. Here's what Baby center says about the baby right now: Your baby's a bit more than 15 1/2 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds. A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and fills out your uterus. Her eyes open and close, she's able to distinguish between light and dark, and she can even follow a light source back and forth. Once she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have a visual acuity of only 20/400 — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face.

Congrats on your new neice. She doesn't even look like a newborn in the face. She looks like a tiny little person wrapped up in a blanket. Perfect.
