Kaylee had a great time yesterday visiting her Aunt Krissy and Uncle Matt. It was very hard for her to leave and there was a lot of whining but once we left, she wanted to come back in and tell them goodbye (in a nice way). They played with her at the playground for a long time! She slept well when we got home!
Update on me: I had my 34th week dr. appt. Everything's fine and normal. They want me to schedule a couple appts with PT for my back issues. Other than that what I really feel is totally tired....and hot! I have begun to swell and am glad I have all the flat, wide shoes I bought for this pregnancy early on. It's nice the second time you kinda know what to expect from your body. We have asked Kaylee what she wants to name her brother, reponses have been "Sammy," "Pippin,"and "Kaylee." I think we can safely say that none are contenders! :) But it's funny to get her input.
Kaylee has now pooped in the potty a couple times, I don't know if I mentioned that. But things are not predictable, nor does she quite seem determined/interested/committed. I personally don't have the energy/drive/committment that's probably required for the activity.
I think we can count on a few months after baby arrives unless she starts to be really intrigued.
I went and toured the birth center to see where I would have the baby. It met expectations - it was nice, well-designed, good amenities and clean. I like the fact that they don't limit you from eating during labor. With Kaylee they yelled at me for eating teddy grahams during a 17 hour labor (I was hungry! Grrrr!). Anyways, now it's just up to the staff. I hope they are professional/competent/respectful/not focused too much on interventions/listen to us. I am crossing my fingers the midwife will be great and that the baby doesn't end up in the NICU like Kaylee did! One can only hope!
I got a new car - my old one had major transmission issues and unfortunately we lost (a lot) of money to that. This is my first new car. It's a mazda 5, seats 6, a manual, and red (my favorite!) It's a lot of fun - I spend A LOT of time in the car commuting to work as far as I do everyday. It feels good to have a reliable car and one our family can comfortably grow into. Thank you to Eric who did all the looking around/investigation without the pregnant wife in tow - that helped a lot!
Kaylee (and all of us) are excited that this coming weekend Kaylee's grandparents are bringing up Kaylee's cousins. We can't wait to see them! Kaylee even got to talk to them on the phone the other day (she loves doing that now and is pretty good at talking on the phone but is a little shy/quiet at first). We, as a family, will go stay at a cabin in Mille Lacs with them for a few days. That will be very nice and a welcome vacation for Eric and I!
