Some baby girl pics!

I went for my 28 week check up yesterday and we had another ultrasound to check on the size of the baby. She was measuring big at my 24 week check up so they wanted to keep an eye on her size. She is measuring in the 58%ile so pretty average. They calculated her weight to be about 2 lbs 13 oz. Besides my iron being low (it happens every time...) everything looked great (passed the glucose test too!). It was confirmed for sure that it is a girl too! After seeing it twice I think that we really believe it now! We have a few new pictures to share below:

Looking at her face- can see her eyes,nose and mouth



Another picture of her face

A side profile with her arm up parallel to her face. The black on the upper right is her brain!

Besides baby news, the basement refinishing is coming along great. They started last Monday and have made great progress I think. It is all framed and the plumber, electrician, and hvac guys have all done their thing. Our contractor said that we should be ready for the first inspection tomorrow or Friday and then they can start the drywall. Hopefully it will be done ahead of schedule. I will send some pictures soon.

We just had a visit from my mom, aka Nana. She came for a few days to visit with the boys. Everyone had a great time and Tim and I actually got to go on a date night! The boys miss her but she will be back in January around baby time!

Happy Halloween!!!

We had a great Halloween here. Tim was able to take the day off which was wonderful. We went to the zoo in the morning which the boys loved. Tim doesn't get to go with us very often so the boys thought it was great. Will was so excited to show Daddy the mountain lion exhibit. Usually they are asleep on a rock but one was awake in the corner. It was really watching the boys, especially Andrew, and then it got into a pouncing position. When Andrew moved a little, it came pouncing right in front of us- right by Andrew. I have a tremendous fear of mountain lions. In Colorado, they are one of the big things that you always have to be aware of when hiking- especially with little kids. Now I know why....lovely! Just reinforcing what I already fear!!

Andrew talking to the gorilla!

The boys carved pumpkins with Daddy in the afternoon and then got ready for some trick-or-treating. Jack was Annakin Skywalker, Will a Blue Power Ranger, Andrew a monkey, and Tim was Jack Sparrow. The big boys were of course excited and Andrew just followed their lead. He didn't want to eat dinner- just go trick-or-treating. They were out for almost two hours and got through most of the neighborhood. Tim brought the wagon for Andrew to try help him keep up with Jack and Will. They had a great time and ate too much candy when they got home!

Our little monkey.

Will, the blue power ranger!

Jack as Skywalker with the ever important lightsaber!

Last but not least our own Jack Sparrow!

The trick-or-treaters!

The whole gang!
