We had a doctor appointment on Friday. I am 30 weeks! I was hoping to schedule our babies arrival for April 30th, but I didn't get it (not my doc's scheduled surgery day). So I am penciled in for May 1st or 2nd. (I am hoping for the 1st). I wanted April because the birthstone is a diamond. May is emeralds. Silly reason, I know. We heard the heart beat and got measured. She is measuring big, just like Brody did. I am supposed to measure no more than 31" at this time and she is measuring 33" so we are probably looking at another 9 pounder! They took my blood for the gestational diabetes check (standard procedure) we pray that it comes back negative. Our next appointment is March 17th. (St. Patty's day -Proud to be Irish!)
In case you didn't get our ultra sound pictures email, our little girls name is Marissa Michelle Hamilton. We don't have (or plan to have) a theme for the nursery, we just like pink.
Brody is doing very well! He was so patient with me while I was sick. With the sun peeking out once in a while we were able to play outside, at the park and in the garage. Yesterday we attended a friends birthday party and he was using all his manors. I am so proud of him! People were telling me he acts so much older than 3.
At home he is testing the limits right now. I can ask him to pick up his toys till I'm blue in the face and I get nothing until I start counting to 3. I am trying to just get him to listen the first time or even the second, but we are still stuck on the counting! errr! Well, at least the counting works. I am thinking of a star chart system, I don't know though, I feel like I would be bribing him.
I got the new dresser put together last weekend I was so bored from being sick all week, but not well enough to get out of the house so I put the dresser together and Brody helped. He was so proud of himself, he got to use the hammer. And although it took a little longer it was nice to have him help me. He has been asking me all week, "can we go work in the babies room?" I think he will be the first to tell his little sis who built her dresser!
Well, off to play with Brody. Talk to you later.
