27 weeks and 1 day.

I had my appointment today. I did my glucose test. It went well. The babies heartbeat was good and strong. Everything checked out good with the baby and me!
As for the baby: She around 2 lbs. or more by now. Comparable to a Chinese Caggage, ha. And somewhere around 14-15 in long. The baby's brain is very active now. A lot of rhythmic movement could now just be the hiccups. (I think I just feel her kicking and doing summer-salts more than anything!) She can aslso now blink her eyes, which have eyelashes. She may even be able to see the light that filters through the womb now.
Here's the technical picture of what's going on. hehe.  :)

Aydan visits Santa and our 1st snow

Aydan went to see Santa yesterday morning! They had a fundrasier here in town at the Union Hall, called "Karing for Kids." You go eat breakfast and see Santa. All money goes to taking children to go get clothes and things they need.
Since Aydan cried last year and wouldn't sit on Santa's lap, I didn't know what would happen this year. He did much better this year. We hung out, ate, let him watch numerous other kids go and see Santa to get used to it. When came his turn.. he walked up with me, and starting walking slower when a few feet away. I had to pick him up and put him on Santa's lap. Santa came him a candy cane, which then allowed us to get a picture. Oh, and he also told Santa he wanted Handy Manny for Christmas, yay!

It is also snowing right now here for the 1st time this year. It took until December 12th for it to snow, but its really coming down today. There must be 1-2 inches out there already, and still a little more to come. Probably try and get Aydan out to play in it today!

Also in baby news. 91 days left, yay! And I'm 27 weeks today. Baby update tomorrow after my doc appt.

Daddy's 1st baby girl shopping trip

Justin was in Chicago for his State's Att. Conference this week. He knows I love Carter's for baby clothes and now anytime he goes shopping without me, he always goes in there to get stuff for Aydan, and now the baby girl on the way.
I must say after he said he bought the little girl some clothes I was very interested to see what he would pick out. I'd say it was a success and I was proud of him!

1st pick:

A pink and brown cheetah print sleeper. This is adorable! Also, very adorable because its one of the two things I picked out from there when I stopped in a month ago. We think alike! Unfotuntely we bought the same size, so I'm going to take it back and get the next size up!

2nd pick:

This outfit set is the cute pants (of course, that's why featured in pic), also came with short sl onesize and long sl onesize. Cute.. it'll be one of the 1st purple things for her!

3rd pick:

This is a pj set. Its cute. Not my favorite. Only problem is the size will have this set for the summer time. So we'll just exchange the size for her to wear it in the fall instead of the summer.

Over all, this little girl's daddy did GOOD! Before we know it, he'll be putting pony tails in and bow on top!  :)

Aydan's Christmas Outfit

Aydan had the cutest Christmas outfit last year from Grandma from Janie and Jack with penguins on it. So... this year Grandma found it again!!! Its a penguin with a top hat! Aydan will look just adorable this year. Pictures to come after Christmas of course.

Aydan goes to Candy Cane Lane w Grandma and Mommy!

Tonight we took Aydan to see Candy Cane Lane in Wet Frankfort and he had a blast! The characters he saw and recognized and said their name out loud: Mickey Mouse, Star Wars, Head (which is potato head), Lighting McQueen, Mator (tamator from Cars), Santa, Buzz Lightyear, Snoopy, and many others. He kept saying "Mama, More!" every time the car moved on to see more. And when we were done, he just kept saying "More, More, More." So, I'd say he had a good time tonight... too bad the lane doesn't last longer! There's always next year!

The pictures are kinda crummy, but I forgot my camera and this was the best I could do in a moving car. 

26 weeks...

I'm now 26 weeks. New baby developments this week. She can now not only hear me, but hear Justins voice too.. and hear our conversations. She will be reaching 2 lbs very soon (or I believe her to be 2 lbs already, a little ahead of the game). She is now sleeping and waking in intervals, could be sucking her thumb, and opening and closing her eyes.
I am 98 days from my due date!

I made a lot of progress on my painting this weekend. The flower is done, just have the lily pad and water to do. Also got some other items in... the lid for the hamper (had a problem when the hamper came, no lid :(  and the piggy bank (looks just like Aydan's, only in blue), and the cork boards to make a hair ribbon/bow holder! Lots more projects to do!

This is my newest belly pictues..
