31w4d Dr Appointment

Well we had our growth ultrasound at the dr today and everything is looking great! She is 4lbs3oz right now and about 16 inches long. She is measuring 5 days ahead of schedule moving my due date to Oct 13th but who knows she will come when she wants :)

My next appointment is September 2nd...

September is going to be a very busy month but that is good the faster it goes by the sooner we will see our little girl!

Meet my newest nephew Hayden

My nephew Hayden was born yesterday at 4:27pm, 9 lbs 6oz. Mommy and Daddy (Victoria & Anthony) are doing great as well as baby.

Victoria was induced at 6 am yesterday morning, dialated to a 4 by 10:30 and got her epidural, 6 cm around 1-2pm, then started pushing at 3:15pm.

Here are a few pictures :)

Month 7 (week 29-32)

Here is what Addison is up to for the next few weeks :)

Baby’s energy is surging, thanks to the formation of white fat deposits beneath the skin. (Have those kicks and jabs to the ribs tipped you off yet?) Baby is also settling into sleep and waking cycles, though -- as you’ve also probably noticed -- they don’t necessarily coincide with your own. Also this month, all five senses are finally functional, and the brain and nervous system are going through major developments.

I cant believe how fast this pregnancy is going. I know i probably wont be saying that when it gets to the last few weeks but so far it has all happened so fast. Matt and I are about as prepared as we ever will be. Only a few things left to buy and then its just the waiting game.

My baby shower is in a month and i can not wait! My sisters are both so excited about it and they have kept some of it a secret so im anxious to see what all they have been working on :)

In other baby news, our friends Chris and Lauren had their little girl last Thursday, and my sister in law is due today! So anyday now we will be celebrating another birth! I cant wait, its just so exciting and im glad they all get to go first so they can tell me what i really need to know to be prepared haha!

I guess that is it for now. I go to the dr again on Wednesday for just a general appointment so nothing to exciting. Then two weeks after that i get another ultrasound :)

Hope everyone has a great week!
