Baby Bump Progression

I was so bad during my pregnancy with Caleb with letting people take pictures of my growing belly. So I resolved to take a pic of my belly every 4 weeks starting at 20 weeks this time. The best part was that I could include Caleb in these photo shoots-he makes everything so much cuter.

Preschool!

Caleb started preschool right after Labor Day!! I have been so excited for him-so far he has really enjoyed it. He's already learning a lot. He can say the word for blue in Spanish and can do the sign for it as well! He has 10 kids in his class, and I think his teachers are fantastic. His homeroom teacher is a former LCA mom, so of course that is a bonus in my book!! I thought I would be a little sad to send him off, but I've really been more excited than sad. Plus, I have 2 mornings a week free now, and I have certainly enjoyed getting to get a drink from Starbucks, do my Bible study, take a nap, clean, go to the grocery, whatever, child-free. It won't be long before I have a little baby on my hands, so I am trying to enjoy this while I still can! Here are some pictures from the first few days of school.

 It was really rainy and cold on the first day, so he got to wear his new fireman rain jacket!

Soooooo happy to see Mommy and Daddy after his first day of school!!!!

4D pics of Molly Kate!

Today is my birthday and Bryan was so sweet to surprise me with a 4D ultrasound session this morning! Caleb came along, too, and we got a great hour of time to see our baby girl on the big screen! Here are some pics from the session:




Isn't she just beautiful??? I wanted to snuggle her so badly after seeing her on the screen...but she needs to stay in and bake for about another 3 months! I'm sure it will be here before I know it. I'm still feeling pretty good....a bit more uncomfortable and tired easier, but not too bad. It's been wicked hot here the past few days, but luckily there is going to be a break in the heat this next week. I had my glucose screening test on Friday and should get the results from that on Tuesday. Hoping the Metformin will keep that from developing, b/c I sure would be sad to give up my McD's sweet tea, haha. ;-) I also had a flu shot (ouchie!) and Rhogam shot this last visit...but got to hear MK's heartbeat, which of course made it all worth it. I've had friends on FB say that they think the first picture looks like Caleb--anyone agree? We still haven't done anything with the nursery/moving Caleb's room due to the heat, but hopefully in the next month or so we can make some real progress. I'm very excited about PINK and decorating that nursery...as well as Caleb getting a "big boy" room...I think he's pretty pumped about it! :) That's all the baby news at the moment!
