34 Weeks

Here we are, another week down, and only 6 to go. Today at the doctor Khloe weighed about 4 pounds and 11 ounces. She is about as heavy as an average cantaloupe. She is still getting fat under her skin to help her fill out and she is still working final touches to be ready, like lung development.

Here are some pictures of me from today...sorry about the crazy hair, but I was going to work on clearing out her room when I got distracted by the camera and posting pictures.

The ultrasound picture is of her face. (Most times it is easier to see if you already know what to look for!)

Time is flying by.

Happy Festivus!

Frank Costanza: Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.

Cosmo Kramer: What happened to the doll?

Frank Costanza: It was destroyed. But out of that a new holiday was born: a Festivus for the rest of us!

Happy Festivus Everyone! Today is the day to Air your Grievances and compete in the Feats of Strength. If you are lucky (or maybe a little bit unlucky), you might even get a Festivus Miracle this year too!

Also, a donation has been made in your name to the Human Fund; Money for People.

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.
