27-28 Weeks!
Yay Christmas Time. . .. My Favorite Time of the Year!
This really I am really excited about starting some new traditions for Liam. Christmas has always been a big deal since I was growing up and so I want Liam to experience that as well.
Here are some things we have been doing as well as new Liam favorites.
* Decorated our 3 trees in the house ( Yes, Pete is being a champ and let me have one in our master bedroom too)
*Got our Christmas Cards out
*Liam has a cookie decorating party with his little neighborhood friends at our house this Friday morning.
*Pete built Liam a matching table for our kitchen
*Liam is obsessed with the Grinch that stole Christmas- we watch it every night and every morning
*The house is almost finished getting decorated
* Timmy, the Elf on the Shelf has been watching Liam.
Here are a few pics of the little guy
On the baby front- things are definitely getting uncomfortable now that I am in the third trimester. Baby girl is doing good, measuring small but I am not putting any stock in that seeing as how they said that with Liam and he was 8.3 lbs.
We go for an ultrasound in a few weeks at 30 weeks so I am excited to see her profile!!
How Far Along: 28 Weeks +
Size of Baby- Butternut Squash about 2 lbs
Movement: she has been going crazy lately
Total Weight Gain 6 lbs
Sleep: Not going that great- GRR!
Name- we are working on it

Week 25-26
The last week was kind of a struggle for Liam and I. We both have been sick and it seems like we just ping pong everything back and fourth. We went to the mountains this past weekend for a little R & R.
Turns out there was not too much sleeping happening as Liam was up 2 nights in a row- boo! Poor lil guy.
We got some great family shots while we were there.
Here are some fun facts about Liam right now:
* He is all the sudden obsessed with his passy- likes to have 2-3 at a time
* He says new things everyday- his latest is when he gets up in the morning he says: milk, snack, show- YES!
* He loves some Daddy and wants to copy everything he does
* He loves anything boy- digging in the dirt, mulch, fixing things
* He says sissy but has no idea what she is.
* He does not like going to bed before 830pm and that is a struggle- he would stay up later if he let him.
* He calls us Mom, Dad, & Babe- haha!
* He does not like baths anymore- only showers
* He says his feet are chunky
Some Fun Facts about Baby Girl!
* She likes to move the most at night when I lay down
* She is pretty tiny in there
* I can only drink 1 cup of coffee with this pregnancy
* She does not have any cravings
* She is already 6 months and counting!
Bring on the Holidays- I am ready to start decorating. We have a full social calender each week so it is going to be action packed :)
Liam's Birthday is this weekend- can't believe he is turning 2 already- times seriously flies.

Week 24 & Halloween!
Liam and his little buddies were super cute for Halloween! Aiden & Liam went as cavemen and Grant was a lion. Nothing like 3 little toddlers running around all hyped up on candy!
At least we got them to eat dinner before they headed out :)

Week 19-23
Well the last month has gone by in the blink of an eye. We had a great time at the beach with the baby reveal, and since then it has been non-stop. Pete and I have more things going on then we do hours in the day.
Here is what we have been up to:
Liam is becoming more of a big boy each day. He really is so smart and knows all kinds of things. He is even starting to read books that he memorizes- pretty impressive for a 22 month old.
Week 19: I did my first taste of shopping for a girl- so many cute frilly things. Pete is nervous about all the shopping happening. Lets just say her nursery will definitely be over the top girly! We have been talking about it and actually made the decision to move her room to the current guest room. This way if she cries, she hopefully won't wake up Liam like she would being right beside him.
Week 20-21: We had a great and busy last few weekend with lots of plans. We had a few toddler dinners that were super cute with our friends, Danielle, Colleen, Katie, & Sarah. The little 2 year old boys play till they pass out around 9:30pm.
We even busted out the firepit and let them make smores.
Week 22: Last weekend we went to our neighbor Jen & Jay's Halloween bash and dressed up as a bun in the oven team :) Classic Pete & Heather. Thanks Mom & Dad for always babysitting so we can have a good time.
Week 23: This week I decided to be crafty and make Halloween Treat Boxes for all of Liam's Teachers- they came out cute!
Whew I am tired just thinking about all that! Nothing like fun filled jam packed weekends. Oh, and I have sold 122 houses year to date-- YAY!
The little bun is growing right along and actually had a check up today- 10-29-13 at 23 weeks.
She definitely is moving around, but is softer for sure than her older brother was. She likes to move the most at night right when I lay down. Pete has gotten to feel her in action too which is cute.
Just this week her kicks are hard enough to actually see my stomach move.
Here are her 23 week stats:
How far along: 23 weeks or 5.5 Months
Size of Baby- I actually need to look but probably like a butternut squash
Movement- Yes she is kicking around
Total Weight Gain- 3 lbs- I am right on track with where I was with my 1st pregnancy. My goal is to be back to normal at week 6 like last time.
Cravings- None really
Gender- Definitely Girl- I had April show me twice to be sure because Pete said " that sure does look like a weeny to me"
Names: None yet, we are talking about a few
Nursery: It is in the works!!
Best Moment of the Week: Liam talking about his sissy and he says she is swimming in there.
