July/Aug Updates

Well we are down to less than 4-6 weeks until baby Aaron & Bella are expected to be here! This really is exciting and nerve racking because I am so ready to not be pregnant anymore but I'm scared to death about caring for 3 children especially two infants at once.

Jaden just celebrated her 3rd birthday on August 1st! She was so good and had so much fun and got spoiled rotten. She got everything Dora or Princesses! She also got a very neat art desk and supplies which is great because they'll help keep her entertained when her brother and sister arrive. If you ask her how old she is now she says "3 minutes" that is because her timeout time has now been moved from 2 to 3 minutes. She also has a new fascination with imagination play and story telling. She will lay out in the grass or on her trampoline and tell stories and she plays house with her baby dolls too. She is going to be a great big sister!!!

Justin and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary on July 22nd! It seems like just yesterday we got married...and now here we are married for 4 years and about to have 3 children! We had a fun anniversary we went to dinner, a movie and for ice cream! It was a fun night! Then the next morning we had to get up early for a 4-H event....lol nice planning.

Well we recently had an ultrasound to monitor Aaron & Bella and found out that Aaron David weighs 4lbs8oz and Bella Ann weighs 4lbs11oz. Which makes them suspect that they will weigh 7+lbs at birth!!! This is exciting and terrifying...lol...exciting because they won't be so tiny when they arrive and not so scary to hold but terrifying because that means 14+lbs of baby that I have to carry around...I'm already carrying 10+lbs around now and am miserable. I'm now seeing the doctor once a week instead of every two weeks like I have been for much of the pregnancy so I'm really getting familiar with them in the office!!! Soon they will be setting the c-section date and I'm hoping that we make it to that date and they don't decide to come earlier. Right now I'm one day shy of being 33weeks! And the c-section will be planned for around 38 weeks.

Well I think that is about all I have for now!
