22 weeks!


Yay so we are starting the party preparations for the Diaper Party that will be here tomorrow. I can hardly stop thinking about it I'm so excited. When I was pregnant with Abby there was so much talk about having a baby shower but one never really got organized and in the end I never had anything. Aren't babies one of the most exciting/fun things to celebrate? It's not about the presents (although the extra diapers will be SO helpful) but rather about getting together with friends and family to celebrate the miracle(s) of life we are so eagerly anticipating.

The weather is looking to be extremely hot and humid so it looks like I will be running the AC quite a bit to try and keep the humidity out of the house. Last night the dew point was 77 at 10:30pm! It literaly felt like a rainforest.... and I've discovered that FEELING like you are 30ish weeks pregnant with that kind of heat and humidity is amazingly hard on the lungs. I kept having to take breaks and head back inside because I couldn't handle it... kept getting dizzy. Guess we've been lucky the weather has been as cool/dry feeling as it has been. Welcome to summer in August.

Makes you wonder what July will be like? Abs and I are sitting on the couch watching Saturday morning cartoons. She keeps getting excited and wants to throw herself onto me... which means basicly onto my stomach considering I feel like I am just one large ball with arms, a head and legs. Grandma & Grandpa Dose are coming today and we are very excited about that. We will put the finishing touches on the shopping for the baby shower and then meet Tom for supper in Sioux Falls. I have some cleaning I still need to get done, and I'll feel like doing it soon I'm sure. Having a few Braxton Hicks this morning so trying to make sure they settle before I get too wild with housework. Abby will be wanting breakfast soon though so I will wrap this up. I'll post more about the party tomorrow and try and get some pictures up. Till then!

"My three little wild children were running around the house, I asked Abby why they all had their clothes off... she looked at me very seriously and said "We're scavengers!" Would love to know where she got that..." (February 2012)

Overheard Abby playing with her Barbies during bedtime: "Fairytopia is dead. Guys don't planick."... a little while later... "Ariel is dead! Planick?... Planick planick!!!!" (March 2012)

Abby was running around in church. I swiftly stopped her and very seriously said "We aren't supposed to run in Jesus's house." Very seriously she replied "Jesus lives in my heart mommy." Point Abby- (May 2012)
