Coming up on Six Months...

When we see the Winns in Seattle, we'll be exactly three months away from our due date! I can't believe how fast it's going and how big my belly is getting! Sometimes it still surprises me to look down and see it there. 

We have our next appointment next Thursday. I think the doctor is just taking measurements. We'll probably also have to get our TDAP shots. Marissa- don't say a word to me about it! We went in last minute last week because I had uneven swelling. Everything turned out okay. The doctor took some measurements then and he said everything looked on track, good heart beat and bump measurements. I'll also have to have the glucose screening test soon. They give me a sugar drink to drink, I wait around in the lab for an hour and then have my blood drawn. Then we cross our fingers that I don't have gestational diabetes! Who knew there were so many needles involved with pregnancy?!

Mallory is kicking away all the time. She took a couple days off from the big ones but came back with a vengeance yesterday. It's so weird to see the belly twitch! 

Emily and I were in class together this morning. Mallory and Jack were both awake the whole time. Maybe they were trying to play with each other!

As for Mallory, she's weighing close to a pound and a half. She'll gain about 6 ounces this week alone! Her skin is still transparent and she's covered in hair called lanugo. Sounds cute doesn't it? For our wedding anniversary, Grandma has offered to get a 3D ultrasound. We're going to talk to the doctor about it next week, but we might be able to see little Mallory's development up close and personal!

We're starting to get the nursery together. We picked up the crib today (thanks Winns!). Paul's in there as I type putting it together. We also have the dresser/changing table in, with cute drawer pulls that Paul helped pick out :) He's going to be such a good daddy!
