Aubrey Update...
We are now 25 weeks along with Aubrey and its getting more and more real to me that we will have another little girl in just 3 short months! She is moving so much more now and it amazes me how she is already able to give me a good rib kick when I'm sitting down. She must not like being smushed cause when I bend forward she goes nuts.
She also must already love her big sister to the moon and back cause any time Addison is talking or touching my tummy she wiggles away in there. Addison isn't patient enough to fell her but definitely knows Aubrey is in there.
I have my glucose test in two weeks where I get to drink the nasty orange drink that makes me jittery and then have vial after vial of blood drawn. Should be fun!
Then after that I believe we will be already at 2 week appointments with the Dr and an ultrasound in a little over a month to chart her growth.
Just 2 more weeks till the third trimester! My how time really is flying with this one!! :)
More updates on Aubrey in a few weeks!
Busy weekend!
Here are a few pictures that were taken of Miss A while we were out and about!

Baking with Addison :)
Addy eating hers :)
"Mommy's Helper"
After we were done together we unloaded the dishwasher, loaded it, did laundry and picked up. Addison has taking a liking to helping me with chores lately. Of course it can be faster to do it myself but I have to tell her no and go play a 100x while I work. So letting her help takes longer, is not always 100% how I would do it but if she likes it and wants to help I am more than happy to let her and enjoy spending that time with her. Yesterday she was so proud of herself for helping that she just kept telling Matt "I helping mommy" with a huge grin and would run back to me for more work :)
Oh how I am soaking up all this one on one time with her before Aubrey gets here. Things will be different with two but just as fun I imagine!

2 year Stats
Weight - 24 lbs (10th percentile)
Height - 32 inches (25th percentile)
Dr Gold said she is doing great. Small for her age but then again she has never been big so that was of no concern. She didn't need any shots just the option of a flu shot but we never get them. Her or myself so we opted out. She doesn't have to come back for another year for a check up so we will make an appointment for that next year sometime.
Overall besides a little front office drama which I don't feel like going into it was a great visit. As always we love Dr Gold so all is well.

Remember that old cheer...
I really don't remember the hip and back pain being this bad with Addison but then I looked up some old blog posts when I was pregnant with her and right about this time last time I was complaining about the same thing. This time I do think it is a little worse. My picking up Addison days may be soon over at least till were done baking this one. She isn't that heavy yet but these hips just cant take the bending and picking up motion. I have even had to call Matt in to the bathroom to help lift her out of the bath tub or on the times he is not available I make her climb out holding my hand. My heating pad is becoming my best friend :)
Well enough complaining for the day! Two more days till we go to the State Fair of Texas!!

Addison is 2!!
For her birthday we celebrated this past Saturday at Abbeys Play town in GP. If you have never been there you need to go! It is a wonderful place to take your toddlers since they only allow 7 and under during the open play and they are never too busy! It is greatness! The staff is very friendly too and at our party they handled every thing for us.
