February Already!



And we are very excited!

Next week I will start my third trimester. The pregnancy has gone very well - love those happy hormones!

I had an Echo done last week on Baby 2's heart and was told it looked great. Baby 2 on the other hand, is BIG - measuring a couple weeks early. Might be because I'm eating too many sweets - I'll be tested for gestational diabetes next week (all pregnant woman have to be tested). Hopefully its just a big baby :)

Daniel seems to get older and more mature every day. He screams Momma and Daddy now. Also "bottle" (any drink) and "cookie!"

He finally had two more teeth break through - one of his snaggle-teeth and the front tooth next to it - looks kind of funny :)

Today he started to CLIMB - yikes! He was climbing up on his plastic "fort" and then falling off it with a THUD! I started to jump up to run to him, thinking he would cry, but he was a tough little boy and tried climbing up it again. I'll try to catch a picture of him in the act soon.

We've moved to a big boy car seat - he is so cute in this picture!

We all had the stomach flu over Christmas and Daniel has had one cold after another, but he takes it like a champ and doesn't let it slow him down.

Thanks for checking in with us :)

Baby 2's Heart looks PERFECT!

We had an ultrasound today at my old high risk doctor’s office. They showed us all of the different parts of the heart where Daniel had defects and they all looked perfect so far!


We go back in at the end of January to have an Echo done of the baby’s heart and will be watched throughout the rest of the pregnancy. The doctor said that things could “evolve” but the chances are very low.


The baby was approximately 15 oz and we were told that it was measuring a bit large – funny to us since Daniel’s weight has been low. It was crazy busy too – bouncing all around inside!


It was a very happy moment for us and a great early Christmas present!!! We wanted to share the good news with you all.


We had some professional pictures of Daniel taken recently. Even though he was sleepy and crabby that night, they turned out really cute! A few of them can be seen here: http://imagesofessencephotography.blogspot.com/2008/12/miracle-man.html


God Bless – Merry Christmas!!
