Nursery

Oh what fun this Flip Video Camera is! I got it as a Christmas present with many many videos of you in mind. The first Ella oriented video is right here! I even made a snazzy little movie out of it with "FlipShare". :) Your nursery is not completely done but it's near done and you will get the idea. There are still a few last minute touches that I have to add. Not too last minute though, we still have 14 weeks. :)

24 Week Appointment

Ella, time is flying!! We went to your 24 week appointment and everything was great! You were measuring right on and your heartbeat was 148. The doctor said it will slowly go down from here because you are born with a much lower heartbeat than what you started out with.

I might do a nursery post soon since I have pretty much everything done. I just have a few final touches to do including painting my own piece of artwork for behind the glider. Depending on how good it turns out, it might be reallllllly behind the glider. :)

Your next appointment is going to be c.r.a.z.y! We go in at 7:50 for the lovely Glucola drink where they will be able to tell if I have gestational diabetes. Then, we go to your third ultrasound to make sure our placenta has moved up. We then venture over to Dr. Hilliker and have our appointment with her but we have to watch the time because we will have to be back at the labs no later than 9am to get our blood drawn. I will also be getting my Rhogam shot since I am O- bloodtype. We might have to celebrate with donuts after all that poking and prodding.

Your baby shower is officially March 6th at 1:30pm! It is going to be awesome! I can't wait! Your great-grandma (how crazy is that??) is hosting it at her house in Plainfield! I am counting down the days!

Your boyfriend Connor was born and we went to see him in the hospital. He is so cute and doing well! It made me want to meet you even more! I can't wait!

You are kicking me all of the time now. You especially like loud music like at church or events like that. It was so neat the Jase got to see you kick at church during communion last week. Very cool moment. Yesterday I was reading and had a blanket over my belly. I could see the blanket bouncing up and down to your kicks. :)

Don't judge. I know...I get the award for the WORST pj's ever. :) Niko is enjoying feeling Ellas kicks.



Nikos doing his job already by making sure there aren't any monsters under the bed.
