Lots of activity

All of Scott's girls
Catherine (the dog) has been a bit under the weather, but is getting better.

A full view of the room. It is small but coming together.
Today's ultrasound picture.

(She is laying on her side with her face to the right and her arm reaching above and cradling her head. She measured 5 pounds and 7 oz. today.)
So as she gets bigger so do I.

We have had a busy couple of weeks with birthing class and a sweet dog who has been under the weather. She also had an ultrasound today that thankfully revealed no masses (A big relief). We have the nursery closer to ready, but there is always more to be done. We are also getting ready for Scott's 30th birthday is just over a week. We have five and a half weeks and counting. We are getting very excited.

A bed for our girl

So we got furniture delivered today which is very exciting! This is a picture of the bed made-up. We are getting both nervous and excited. We have our first birthing class this weekend. With just seven weeks to go and six weeks of work for Sally, it feels like there is a lot to be done. We are trying not to get overwhelmed and to enjoy some relaxation and anticipation of our little one.

Big Head Down

We had an ultrasound today and found out that she is about 4 pounds 3 ounces. She has made the flip to head down. In fact she has it neatly tucked in my pelvis making pictures blurry at best. We did find out that her head is two weeks ahead of the rest of her body in terms of growth so her brain must just be that big :) Just kidding. Her mother has a huge head of her own. We have a couple more ultrasounds coming so we will hopefully have some more pictures soon.

Maryland Baby Shower


I had a wonderful shower this weekend in Maryland. It was a wonderful party, and Splinter is very spoiled. Leah did an amazing job, and we are very appreciative. Her husband carved the baby carriage. Leah made the quilt in the top picture.

A green room for the baby


Scott painted the baby's room while Sally was gone week before last. Now we are just waiting for furniture. :)

Coming Full Circle

We spent most of last week in Wyoming at Grand Teton National Park at a place called Jenny Lake Lodge with Sally's parents. It was coming full circle because Sally's first trip to Jenny Lake was when her mother was pregnant with her. :) We enjoyed our trip!

Relief

I passed the glucose test. I am relieved as I know several people who have had to deal with the longer test and a few who had gestational diabetes. With one last vacation on the horizon I am glad to have this crossed off my list. :)
