Me, 26 weeks

So, here's an updated picture of me and my big ole belly :). I swear, I'm huge. And, I was told to expect to double in size over the next 3 months. Seriously?? There's no room!!


Well, we have a first name - Andrew. We plan to call him Drew. We are still working on a middle name. We struggled enough with the first name, so we haven't been very motivated to find a middle name just yet. We will soon though.

Drew is growing just fine. We have a 4D ultrasound in a couple of weeks, so I'm very excited about that! The little joker moves around constantly. He just makes me laugh with some of the things he does. Sometimes, I look down at my belly, and the entire thing is shaking. It's like he's doing a dance in there or something. Mostly he just kicks, flips, and rolls, so this shaking thing is new and VERY funny.

I'm always wondering what he's thinking and doing. It's really bad when I'm trying to talk to someone at work, and he starts rolling around. I completely lose my train of thought and focus on my little baby.

I tried to listen to his heartbeat today, and he wanted no part of that. Everytime I put the microphone on my belly, he'd kick it. He doesn't seem to be a fan of people messing with him. He does the same thing at the DR office. Everytime the DR tried to hear his heart, he kicks at the device and tries to get away. Just makes me laugh.

I just can't believe that he'll be here in a few more months. We still have no idea how to take care of a baby, but I've bought about 10 books that I'm hoping will help :). I just wonder what he'll look like!!

Well, just wanted to give you an update. Everything's going great!

Disney 2007


So, we're a little late talking about our vacation, but the past few weeks have been crazy. We went with Tim's family and our friends Jennifer and Jeremy and their baby to Disney World back over Memorial weekend.

We spent a few days at the parks, hitting all of our favorite highlights, and then spent the rest of the time at Disney just relaxing. This year we had Maddy (Jennifer and Jeremy's baby) and Cooper (Tim's nephew) with us on vacation, so between the 2 babies under the age of 2 and me, the very pregnant lady, we took it easy.


It's certainly funny the rides that you are interested in now that there are little ones visiting with you. We never really went to much in the Magic Kingdom before, but now, that's the best place for the kids! Of course, everyone knows this and the lines are IMPOSSIBLE! Oh well. And, it impossible to get the 2 babies to both look at you at the same time, and to actually smile. Oh well. Here's a picture of Cooper and Maddy.

So, after a few days, we went over to Vero Beach, FL to relax at Disney's property on the beach. This was also very nice. We all just took it easy and hung out by the pool and watched movies for a few days. Sometimes this is the best vacation :).

Well, just wanted to post the highlights. We all had a great time. And, the next time we all go, there will be a 3rd baby - baby Penrose! Here's a pic of Tim's family.
