28 Weeks

aka Third Trimester aka Large and in Charge

Even those horizontal stripes last time can't hide how much bigger I am now!  On the upside I passed my glucose test this past week.  On the downside I am having some serious um... down there pain most of the time, thanks to the babies position or something, which my doc said is pretty common in subsequent pregnancies and there isn't a ton that can be done for it.  Support garments are the only possible help, so there is a tank with built in support belt on it way to me as we speak.  Nice!

Please note the fully finished nursery behind me in Milo's picture.  Yeah, I've made some serious headway on Parker's room but it def isn't finished at this point!

Wordless Wednesday - This is Not Staged

New Office

With just under 3 months until we have 2 CHILDREN, we thought we should, you know, think about getting Parker's room set up.  I mean, by now with Milo we were done with everything - ready to go.  Notsomuch this time.

So first things first, the guest bed went bye bye and the office was moved into that room, and it is GLORIOUS!

Look! Doug can be on the computer and I can be sewing and we aren't bumping into each other!

Non-claustrophobic sewing area, with room for all my junk!

Office area. You don't have to have your back to the TV just because you want to use the computer!

Seriously, its the little things.  It is not so exciting though if you are planning on staying overnight at my house because now you are stuck with the pull-out sofa.

Oh well, sucks to be you.

26 Weeks

And this is where I beg for fall to come just so I can wear long sleeves again, as much of the weight I'm gaining seems to be going straight to my arms.  Yay!

Wordless Wednesday

24 Weeks

Nothing much new going on this week, except that I am feeling all around HUGE.  Which is scary since there is still a little over 3 months left to go.

In other news, CAN YOU BELIEVE WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER BABY IN JUST OVER 3 MONTHS.  Probably we should get started on the nursery and stuff, huh?

Milo the Adrenaline Junkie

A couple weeks ago we went to Canada with Doug for a work thing and hit up Canada's Wonderland before coming home.  I was a little skeptical about how Milo would like it because he can be a bit weary of new things at first.  But after the first ride he was hooked and he dragged us all over the park, even getting mad when we wanted to sit on a shady bench for a few minutes!

"This train ride is for babies, bring on the excitement!"

Screaming with joy in the upper right hand corner.

Obviously you need a snow cone the size of your head when its 95 degrees out.

And here, Milo's first rollercoaster.  He was loving watching this one while we stood in line for another ride so we decided to let him try it.  After waiting in line for almost half an hour they almost wouldn't let him on because of his height but he was JUST tall enough for it.

And he LOVED it!  Doug had to drag him off the thing kicking and screaming.  Um, and I mean that quite literally.
