36 Weeks!

Well, here I am at 36 weeks! My belly is huge!

Me again

Chris and Maggie having a fun time looking at pictures on the computer.

I'm actually getting very excited to have my baby! I'm excited for labor and delivery - excited to meet our little girl. I am just as excited to get off bedrest! I'm getting off bedrest on Halloween, so we'll see how long it takes me to regain some strength, and how long I last before I go into labor. I can't believe the end is so close! I'm so happy. Even though I know having 2 kids will be anything but normal, I can't wait to get our lives back to normal! Wahooo!

Happy Birthday Maggie! 2 Years Old!

Maggie turned 2 yesterday, October 14th. She had such a fun day with a cousin birthday party in the morning and then a family party at night. She got adorable gifts and a new wardrobe because she suddenly outgrew all of her clothes! Not to mention she didn't have any winter clothes. It was such a fun day! Maggie is the joy of our lives and she is still the happiest and sweetest girl that she ever was. We gave her a new cabbage patch baby to help her when our new little girl arrives, and already Maggie loves her and feeds her :). Chris' coworkers Josh and Bonnie gave Maggie an adorable fairy costume that Maggie had a lot of fun dressing up in (yeah, a Halloween costume!) and Maggie's aunt Alina made her a holiday dress! Maggie gots lots of clothes, dresses, shoes, and winter coats and boots from us and from her Grandma Tueller. She also got a visit to the pumpkin patch. We love you Maggie! Happy Birthday!

34 weeks - a milestone to celebrate! (again) :)

Hi everyone! Yes, I made it to 34 weeks. The doctor says that's a pretty huge milestone, and my next milestone is 36 weeks which could mean a take-home baby! Wahoo! Only 2-3 more weeks of bedrest and then I'm so outta here! I guess the baby will be too pretty quick after that - atleast if what the doctor predicts is true. Nothing very exciting has been happening around here. I have read quite a few books lately - thank goodness for good books! I'm still not done with my 3rd baby blanket because I've gotten so bored with it I can hardly pick it up. Even my favorite TV network HGTV shows are starting to bore me. Phew! Chris and I have been selling some of our household things we don't use on our local classifieds website and that has kept me intrigued and motivated for a couple of weeks thank goodness. Other than that I am counting the days. Here are a few pictures from the past couple of weeks that I think are adorable. (Not in order) Chris took Maggie to the fair, Maggie and Lindy playing in their cute matching dresses, Maggie sleeping in the glider (that's how I found her when I peaked in during her nap!), and Maggie helping Grandma Mower make Halloween sugar cookies! She sure loved that frosting! Chris' mom spent a week with us while my mom spent a week with my other sister who just had a baby. We are so grateful for everyone's sacrifices to help us!
