Week 26

Oops...missed week 25 picture.  Here is week 26.  We were inspired to get the picture taken as cauliflower was on the menu for tonight.  Baby is measuring a bit smaller than Caleb was at this point.  Maybe this one won't be quite as big?  No gestational diabetes again, so that's a relief.  Caleb helped us pick out somethings for the baby's room the weekend.  He picked a crab and "a cute little fish" to hang on his door.  He also picked a fire truck, bus, and sailboat to go on his coat/towel hook.   He still wants the room to be pink and actually thinks that it is going to be.  We are going red and blue, but the red looks pink in the container.

Week 24

Week 24...baby is the size of a cantaloupe.  Another fruit Caleb was super excited to eat.

This baby seems to be a lot more active than Caleb was.  He moves nearly all day, every day - especially if I lay down.  I'm wondering if this is a sign of his personality!

My belly is measuring 36 inches around...or as Caleb says, "it getting so, so big."

We are making some more progress on baby's room.  I'm hoping it is painted by the end of October.  There is not near as much pressure to get things ready this time since we know what to expect and we have everything we need.  We have most of the big things out of the room, just trying to figure out spots for a few other things.  The biggest thing I'm struggling to find a place for are all of Caleb's old clothes.  I have some Ziploc vacuum bags that have cut it down to a much smaller stack, but still trying to find a good place that we can get to relatively easily as baby grows.
