28 weeks

I had a doctor's appointment on Tuesday for my 28 week check.  My doctor was delivering so I saw the nurse practitioner.  I had never seen this NP before, she was very nice but brief.  The heartbeat was good, but when she measured me, I was only measuring at 24 weeks.  Sooo, she wanted me to have an ultrasound done to check the baby's growth and anything else that could be wrong.  Gave me a little bit to worry about.  We went to the ultrasound appointment today and everything is fine!  Amniotic fluid is good, baby's heart seemed good, both kidneys were in place, and I think all the other measurements she took were ok too.  Her estimated weight was 2lbs 12oz.  The ultrasound tech was very nice and did some 3D pictures for us!  I told AJ I think she is going to have his nose!


June is going to be here before we know it and we have a lot to do still!  The nursery is getting closer to being done, except for all the junk still in there!  AJ finished painting the walls last weekend and set the crib up.  The bedding is washed and on the mattress!  It is starting to look like a baby room we just need to get a couple more things like curtains, a hamper, some things for the walls, and lots more clothes!!  We still don't have a name picked out, so I guess we need to work on that as well! 
Preston is seeming to understand the baby in the belly concept a little more as of late.  This afternoon when I got home from work he came up and kissed my belly several times and said something about a sister.  AJ is trying to teach him to say sister/sissy this week while he is home.  I just can't believe how much he is talking, he really tries to repeat everything and understands so much.  We get a lot of "come on mommy/daddy" and "mommy, [i] did it."  He really does amaze me everyday! 
There have been some nice days this week where AJ and Preston have played outside almost all day.  Tuesday when I got home from my doctor's appointment, Preston did not want to come inside at all.  So, we played outside until dinner and then went back outside until it was getting to be a little chillier.  The only way I got him to come inside without too much of a fight was to say he was going to take a bath.   
Here are some pictures from playing outside and me at 28 weeks.  Enjoy and have a great weekend!
