HOW FAST THEY GROW!

Things have sure changed around our house. The belly monster is fully mobile, and keeps us on our toes!

She has also learned how to fly her plane!
She changes everyday, so we are trying to enjoy every minute of everyday!

DEEP DOWN BELLY LAUGH

There is nothing better then a baby's laugh!! ENJOY

BIG GIRL

Our little peanut is 7 months old today. She had a great visit to the DR last week. She is 16 lbs, and 27 inches long! We got the go ahead to feed her all baby foods! She has had the great joy of trying the Meats...YUCK!

As you can see she is a typical 7 month old, everything in the mouth!

Yum Yum

This video was shot a couple of days ago, she is pushing up and getting her knees under her, it won't be long before she is on the go!

Where has the time gone?

It's been so long since I have updated the blog I even for got the log-in and password.

I can not believe that our little peanut is already 6 moths old!

She is growing so fast, she is eating all veggies and fruits made by gerber and loving them. She is having no problem rolling over back and forth, and is getting so so close to taking off in a crawl. I have a feeling our world is really going to change once she is on the move!

The last couple of months of the year and the 1st quarter of the year are such busy busy times for Brian and I and our Jobs. Brian has currently been working his heart and soul out trying to spread the world the we need to start over on health care reform, he has been all over the news and on numerous radio shows, and is currently getting ready to head to DC next week! We are very very proud of him! My roles at work changed at the first of the year, so I have been crazy learning new things but enjoying every minute of it!

Please keep checking back, I hope to start posting more frequently!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

We celebrated Isabelle's 1st Thanksgiving at Grandma & Grandpa Bloomberg's.

(Grandma & Grandpa Urban were suppose to join us but have been feeling a little under the weather)

This is the only picture before Isabelle decided to spit up and have a blow out all over her outfit!

The boys played a great game called "Fact or Crap"

as the girls watched football

just kidding we were just chatting about the wedding (Phillip and Katey are getting Married in Vegas on Saturday Nov 28th)

We had a wonderful dinner thanks to mom and dad (even if there was no turkey skin or pumpkin pie) Isabelle enjoyed a little nap during dinner time!

After her nap she was full of fire.... Here are a couple of videos the first one is Brian trying to get her to talk..

The second one is of her getting SO SO close to rolling over (even Uncle Ry Ry was getting pretty excited)

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

FINAL COUNTDOWN

As you can see peanuts shell is definitly getting bigger! We are right on track! Last week we started out weekly apointments with the DR!

Peanut shell is measuring 37 weeks, and peanut is spending its time upside down.. which is what we want! The DR said we should make it close to our due date, but that it could also happen anyday! (update heart rate 166, total wait gain 24lbs)

Brian has been very busy making sure everything is ready for the arrival of peanut!

Down The Home Stretch

As I logged onto the blog, I noticed it was entirely reflective of Rachael's work. Much like at home, she's been preparing for our child in many ways. I'm am terming the blogwork cyber-nesting. In any event, I realized that I've contributed very little to the cyber-nesting effort. So here are some musings.....

An Observant Husband….

I think my wife has been drinking too much. I hate to admit it, but there have been signs surfacing over the last 9 months. She’s been overly emotional, and forgetful. She also pees constantly. I haven’t been able to find a hidden stash of vodka, or anything, but there are a number of strange-looking, empty bottles showing up around the house. However, none of them smell like liquor, and I can’t figure out what the nipples are for. I think I need to be looking for beer cans. That would more easily explain the frat boy belches, and reoccurring hiccups. There’s also the rapidly expanding beer belly. But what is she doing with all of the empty cans? It appears I will have to pay closer attention to get to the bottom of this.



Parenthood, or Puberty?

As we loom over the commencement of our next phase of life, I've noticed a number of changes in my body. The bursts of energy and taste for domestic work, be it a nursery remodel, or a landscaping project, or nothing short of amazing. Based on the newly acquired complexion issue, I've decided the energy must be rooted in hormone fluctuations. I hope they are not the same hormones that cause fathers to lose their hair. If they are, I guess I can blame the child, like all other folliclely challenged fathers. Strange pains, hormone fluctuation, and a steady anxiety over the impending stage of life….this seems like a familiar territory.

25 WEEKS

"Peanuts" shell at 25 weeks!

We had our 24 week check up last week and "Peanut" is growing fantastic!

20 weeks (alittle late)

The day after we returned from our Babymoon, we had our 20 week ultrasound!

Baby "Peanut"

We did not find out if we are having a boy or a girl, we decided that we wanted it to be a surprise, but "peanut " also decided he/she did not want us to know either.

Legs tightly crossed
Everything looks great "Peanut" is growing in the 98% bracket, they have talked about moving our due date up to the 25th of August.

( As of this Apt we are 20 weeks 3 day, weight gain 6 1/2 pounds for a total of 10 pounds, heart beat 157)

BABYMOON

Brian & I were blessed to take another vacation to Mexico.... We had our honeymoon in Mexico a little over 6 months ago, so this trip we called Babymoon the half way point of our pregnancy.

This was what I looked at for 4 days straight! It was beautiful! ( yes I can still see my feet)

We did absolutely nothing the whole trip, except lay on the beach and ate 3 buffets a day, a pregnant women's heaven!

Brian even found himself a buffet of all you can drink flavored tequila, his favorites Strawberry & Coconut!!!

For those that have been waiting for a new belly bump picture!

I don't think that either one of us knew how much we need this trip! It refreshed us both to hit the next 20 weeks strong!! Thank you to my wonderful husband, you are such a wonderful man..and forever will be my prince charming!

BEST FRIENDS

I had been planning a surprise trip to visit my best friend that lives in Dallas. She had spent many long long weeks on bed rest with surprise baby number 4! I was blessed to visit 10 days after Abigail Helen was born, and boy was Mary surprised!!!! We never never thought that we would be pregnant at the same time, let alone giving birth only 5 months apart!

We had a fantastic weekend together catching up and me learning all the wonderful things that come after you have a baby....I still don't understand why nobody tells you this stuff until it is to late :) "Just The Girls"

Me, Lizzie, Abbie, Jessie, Mary

I owe a special Thank You to Spencer for picking me up from the Airport, when he was feeling under the weather and also giving up his bed!

I LOVE & MISS YOU ALL!!

Number 3 soon to become number 4

Do you think she knows what's in store? She soon will be bumped to number 4 in the family line up!

For those of you who do not know, this is Lilly Brian & I's number 3. She is spoiled rotten and pretty much gets what every she wants, including this $8.00 bone that was gone with in hours!
