I Made It

A little update on the belly progress.

37 weeks

The belly makes a good shelf for holding things like toddlers.

And here we are at 40 weeks!

I made it through the morning sickness, exhaustion and annoying diet for gestational diabetes.  One of my students gave me a box of chocolates for a gift which I will enjoy enthusiastically when I get the okay from my doctor about 6 weeks after birth.  We are getting ready and excited!  Mom arrives tonight!

It is hard to believe that we were in this place only two years ago.  Grace is so big!  

Twinkle Twinkle

This is the closest I've ever seen Grace get to singing!  She often mouths the words along with us, but she very rarely attempts all on her own.  

It is neat that Jason caught it on video!  

Playdates with Avery

Finally, some time outdoors!  Also, some playdates with best friend Avery.

They have so much fun playing together!

Spontaneous hugs are so sweet.

They both begged to go outside!  Something about that sunshine calls to toddlers.  Or maybe it is the leaves and sticks to throw around that entices them, I don't know.  

They don't stay still for very long, but I think I still got some good shots!

This one is just too funny.  Grace was talking about baby sister in Mommy's belly, hence the finger in the button.  I think it looks like a cd album cover.  Jason thinks it looks like a jean advertisement.  Whatever it is, it makes us laugh!

And a short silly video too!  It is hard to take videos these days because as soon as she starts doing something cute or funny and we take out the camera, she instantly stops what she is doing and asks excitedly to see the video.  She mentions Super Grover because she talks about him all the time right now.
