Jon & Kathy

Olivia is holding on to the paci (thanks JP and Liz) in these pictures. Jon walked around the house with her last night and she held on to it for a good 5 minutes.

This past Thursday we went to the doctor for another checkup. I had the diabetic test done and since they haven’t called today (tuesday) to call me back in for another test I should be in the clear. The babies heartbeat was in the 150’s and my stomach measured 28 cm. The big wow was the scale…..at 137 pounds!!!!!!! Which means I am up about 20 pounds now, and not sure where it is all going.

We are now doing appointments every 2 weeks until I’m 8 months, then we go every week!

I was surprised by a package left at the back door today by the UPS man!
Turns out the Allen Family from Missouri got baby Woodall a welcoming gift. We received a bouncy seat and bottle’s we registered for at Babies R us, I took a picture of it!

The three of us want to thank them for the nice gesture, we know it will be a life saver!

Thanks again,

Kathy

Hey everyone,

I’m showing off the new piece of furniture that Jon built for me! I love it!

Someone likes the baby a lot, she lays on my belly often! She never used to do that until I got pregnant, and she actually knew something was in there before we did. Take a look at the pics from today!

We have been working on the baby room in the past weeks! This meant that my office had to be moved out and temporarily stored somewhere else until the basement is done. I moved all my design catalogs and books downstairs in boxes. Jon will work on the clothes closet and put me some more shelves in since baby clothes are short. But I had this idea of drawing/ painting animals on the wall for the baby and since my sister is here we have been busy working on it. Below you can see the progress we have made, I will post more pics when its all done!

Btw, its great fun preparing for the new arrival!

Here are some pics of the kitchen, we still have to pick out tile for the floor and the back splash and permanently install the cabinets, get counter tops, do some trim work,……never ending!!!

Here are some pics of the belly at week 18……and the boobs!

We went to the lake on Saturday and had a good time…….I finally got a tan!

Check out the pics.
