33 weeks- only 7 left to go!

Yahoo! I love getting to count down! This week Khloe is loosing her wrinkled, alien look, and looking more and more like a normal baby. Her skeleton is also beginning to harden up. She should still be over 4 lbs and about 17 inches long. She should weigh about the same as a pineapple. She has come a long way since she was a poppy seed.

Usually when I am still, I can feel her movements. Sometimes they are BIG kicks and other times just kind of sliding around. It is pretty cool.


Today, Eric and I have been married for 3 years. We don't have big plans tonight, since he is still working, but we might celebrate better tomorrow or so. We don't really celebrate our regular anniversary that much because we are usually too strapped for time so close to the Christmas holiday, so we like to do something fun together in June, for the half anniversary. Even still, today is still a special occasion. I guess this is our last one without any kids!

32 Weeks

Yesterday Eric and I went to the doctor again. Everything was normal during the ultrasound. Khloe is still a girl, and looking healthy. She is just over 4 pounds and about as heavy as a large jicama.

Now she is gaining 1/3 to 1/2 her body weight within the next 7 weeks. I can't believe how fast the time is going. There are only 8 weeks left! Khloe has toenails, fingernails, and hair on her head now.


My next appointment is in 2 weeks, so that is a sign that things are coming to an end.

The Hoopers left on Monday, and Chris came in. I love having good times with the family.

Weekend in Mammoth

These are some pictures from our trip to Mammoth with the Olsons. We had a blast.

31 weeks

Khloe should weigh about as much as 4 navel oranges now (3.3 lbs). She should be about 16 inches long. It is crazy to think that there are only 2 months left. She will grow an estimated 4-6 inches and gain another 3-5 lbs.

She is still fattening up this week. She is really growing and moving. Last night was the first night she really kept my up with her movements and Braxton-Hicks contractions. Oh well. I guess I will need to get used to loosing sleep.

This week has been really great. The Hoopers have been visiting and I have had a lot of time just hanging out with them. Today, Eric is off work, and he and his dad are moving rolls and rolls of insulation out of our yard! Yeah! (In the summer, shortly after we moved in, Eric got around 30 rolls of insulation from someone, and we used as much as we could but there is still a ton left).

Our family is celebrating Thanksgiving together this weekend, and weather permitting, we will take the trailer to Red Rock Canyon for the feast and geo-cashing. I have never been yet, so I am really excited to get to go.

I have worked a couple days this week, and they have both been pretty good so far, even thought one of them was Middle School. I am thankful for that.


Take care, and thanks for reading!
