Nothing fits over my belly anymore! I feel like she could come any day now. I have an ultrasound and doctor's appt on Tuesday, at 37 weeks. We can't wait to see my progress and our cute little girly!

Thanksgiving Advent

 Our THANKSgiving Tree
November 22, 2012


After all the decor and excitement of Halloween was over, I felt like there was nothing left for Thanksgiving. There's always fall decor, but not much focused on the actual holiday of Thanksgiving. So I came up with a Thanksgiving advent calendar. I cut out a tree from a few pieces of brown construction paper. Then, I cut out multiple fall leaves, totaling 22, for 22 days until Thanksgiving. We started on November 1st. Each day, the kids would choose a leaf and add it to our Thanksgiving tree. Then, we'd write something that we were thankful for. The kids absolutely LOVED this! Everyday, they always reminded me that we needed to put up another leaf. So here is a picture of the finished product, on Thanksgiving!

33 week Ultrasound

We had another ultrasound on Wednesday, November 7, at 33 weeks and 1 day. Our little girl is still measuring 2 weeks ahead! My original due date, when we found out I was pregnant, was December 12, 2012. Then I had my first ultrasound. For some reason, she was measuring almost 2 weeks behind. This pushed my due date back to December 25, 2012. Now that she's measuring ahead by 2 weeks, it makes sense. My thought is, that she's just developing at her own rate, because the original due date matches. Although the doctors aren't officially changing my due date back, we are preparing and planning as if she's coming in early December. We are so excited for her to be here! Below are the photos of our sweet baby girl from our 4D ultrasound.

This picture shows her cute little ear! I love it! 
And the bumpiness on her head is her HAIR!

Love her scrunched up face! Emma loves to mimic it.


These last two show her sweet little nose and lips...just perfect!


Nesting has begun...

The Rug Doctor
11.8.12

After living in our house for 3 years now, we finally decided the carpets and couch needed to be deep cleaned. So, we rented a rug doctor and went to work. The family room was the worst so that took a few hours. The couch itself took 2 hours and the other rooms just took a few minutes. It feels so nice to have a cleaner couch, just in time for our sweet baby girl to arrive!
