Note: I am FINALLY updating my blog and will try to bring you all up to date as much as my journals (thank goodness for those) and my foggy memory will allow. Sorry for the delay!
We had a great time with the boys last weekend and I know they really enjoyed their special days with us. We definitely will be doing that more often as our family grows and we have less opportunities for one-on-one time.
The baby and I are doing great. I saw Dr. Saunders this week and we agreed that we should have an initial sonogram to check my fluid levels, but as long as they were good, we wouldn't do another one before I deliver. I explained how anxious it made me with Andrew and felt like we'd scheduled the delivery at an appropriate time anyway even if my fluid levels did drop. Luckily she listened and agreed which was hugely empowering!
We did the sonogram on May 14th and my fluid levels were a 14 (normal is 5-25. Andrew and Thomas were both delivered when my levels were at 6 and 8). We're home free!
We had a great Mother's Day weekend in Des Moines and got to see a lot of family. Everyone had lots to say about how big I'd gotten and Great-grandma Cox was even speculating that the baby had dropped and I'd go early! We got some very nice gifts from Papa Bill and Nana Karla and from Grammy and Papa. Everyone is so excited to meet the baby!
I'm definitely getting uncomfortable now and am very ready for Sweet Pea to arrive. Our friends the Kimbrels had their baby girl this weekend - Grace Ann. She and Sweet Pea will have so much fun growing up together!
