28 Weeks & Counting

We went for another ultrasound today so the doctor could get some better pictures of the baby’s spine and monitor his growth.  We found out he has flipped and is no longer breech and his spine is up (ready for labor).  I think this baby is confused about how long he has left in there (almost 12 more weeks)! 

He is kicking me like crazy lately and as soon as I try to rest he goes nuts.  We are definitely on different schedules.  Autumn is getting better about going to the hospital now since she has been so many times with us and hasn’t had her own appointment again in awhile.  Juggling her 3 year appointment with new baby appointments will be fun in January.

The little man is nothing like autumn.  She was small and quiet (at least in the womb).  This little man doesn’t stop moving and he’s much larger in size than my little princess.  The baby is currently measuring half a week large and weighing a whole week large!  Not looking forward to labor!

Dinner Time

Lately it’s been a real struggle at the dinner table with autumn.  She has always been kind of difficult but recently she has started driving mom and dad nuts.  At least we used to get one easy meal a day, breakfast.  But now... she won’t even eat that without complaining and trying to negotiate.  It’s getting very frustrating.

Columbus Day Weekend

This weekend was long... and not because of the extra day involved.  We spent all day Saturday and Sunday installing new windows in the downstairs of the house.  Monday we went to the dentist with Mike for a cleaning and then spent the evening cleaning the house and Mike had to finish the last window casing in the kitchen.

On Saturday Autumn went with "grandma greenhouse" to Mcdonald's and then to 2 different parks in Massena.  Uncle Wayne met up with them and played on the playground with Autumn.  Then Autumn went back to Bombay for a bit and then met up with mommy and daddy at Pizza Hut with grandma for dinner.

On Sunday Autumn went to "grandma tractor's" for the day.  She spent the day playing with cousin Liam and picking pumpkins with Aunt Jackie. Mommy and daddy drove up to Bombay at the end of the day and had order out pizza with grandma and grandpa for dinner.
