Cece at the pool. Her favorite place to be after all!!! She could swim all day every day if we let her. She is such a water goddess! Hopefully, this baby likes the water too, since we love spending time hanging out by the pool during the summer. Poor Kiley is so anxious to get here and be able to swim. Last time I talked to her she said that she hadn't been to the pool yet this summer:( Poor kiddo! Cecelia will be happy to have a playmate at the pool too. At the last OB appointment on Tuesday we found out that the baby has flipped and is head down! Yay!!!! Apparently, the babe is very unlikely to flip back around at this point. I'm so happy that a C-section is not immanent at this point! We got the new car seat and stroller delivered yesterday. Funny how the little things in life make me soooo happy. Aaron was working so I put it together myself....o.k. I took it out of the package and put the wheels on it. Not too difficult.

Summer Time Fun

Lots of Pictures. There are a few from my baby shower. Which was amazing! We are so blessed to have so many family members and friends who love us dearly. We are completely set for this little babe...as long as she comes out a girl still...I had a bad dream the other night that she actually came out to be a he! I can't wait for the baby to get here! I want to play dress up with her and take lots of pictures. Two things that Cecelia rarely lets me do anymore. She barely lets me help her pick out an outfit and when we try to snap a picture of her she gets annoyed because we are interrupting whatever fun activity she is doing. The next few pictures are from Fathers day. After taking Aaron to lunch and then to get his gift he had to go to work so we went over to Steph's house for their annual fathers day BBQ. We love their house. Steph's parents house has been like my second home since Jr. High. And her parents have always been so good to me. I love going over to the Nobb's house, and so does Cece...particularly because they have a pool and always yummy treats! One picture is of Cecelia playing squirt ball, Cecelia at a storm chasers game at Werner Park (conveniently located right down the road from our new home!!!). And then finally, the last picture (or in blog order, I don't know why it uploads in the exact opposite order I save it as: the first picture) is of Cecelia today at Halleck park. She found a quiet little spot and Aaron snapped a picture from the distance. So precious!

Some pictures from Rachel's bridal shower and bachelorette party. Two very fun weekends. I loved getting married and celebrating with everyone and I'm so glad that I can help make my best friends wedding celebrations joyful as well:)

33 weeks prego

Ugh:( Where do I begin? I am so uncomfortable these days. Today I had another ultrasound to check on baby's measurements, and this little butterball officially weighs more now than Cecelia did when she was born! Cecelia weighed in at 4 lbs, 4 oz. at birth and this little peanut is now 4 lbs, 6 oz. We got a few 3D pics of her today and she looks like a little chunk in her face, poor kiddo, she also looks like she has a very swollen nose and mouth (but apparently, they all look like that...must be from being in the water). The only bad news is that this babe is in the breach position. She still has a few weeks to flip around but I'm worried that she won't. At 36 weeks we will check to see if she has flipped into vertex and if she hasn't yet we then have to talk about them doing an aversion under anesthesia or scheduling a C-section! Yikes! I pray this doesn't happen. I Really don't want to have a C-section. My legs are swollen up to my knees...specifically, I have 2+-3+ pitting edema. I can't wait to have this weekend off because I am going to put my feet up and relax. I need it badly! We headed down to Kansas City last weekend for Rachel's bachelorette party. It was fun, but the weather didn't cooperate as much as we would have liked, and we walked around the Plaza shopping and I probably should have stayed by the pool instead because my poor legs are paying for it now.

We still have yet to agree on a name. Aaron has picked out 2 that I like and I have a name picked out that I love but Aaron doesn't love it. Since we can't agree, I'm just going to hold our until I get my way...or at least try to. I doubt that will happen but wishful thinking!

Baby shower on Saturday!!! Yay! I'm excited because I've been nesting like crazy and can't wait to find out what else we need to buy for the baby to finish preparing. Plus, I can't wait for all they yummy food my sisters are planning on making:)

Rachel took Cece shopping early for her birthday the other day. I stayed at home and nested for the baby, organizing clothes, setting up the bassinet, swing, changing table, etc. I told Rachel to not let Cecelia swindle her into more than 1 outfit. After I finished nesting the girls weren't' back from their shopping yet, so I jumped in the shower, when I got out of the shower I was surprised to walk into the dining room to find my whole kitchen table covered with new clothes...the majority of them from Justice. Cecelia loves Justice but it is usually pretty expensive and I try to steer her towards other stores for the sake of my pocket book. Rachel promised me everything was on sale and that Cecelia did not in fact, talk her into buying her anything she didn't want to buy her. Cecelia adores Rachel and asked me the other day if Rachel and Stephanie and Karissa were really her aunts ( they aren't...they are my best friends and are practically like sisters). When I tried explaining this to Cecelia she came up with the term frauntie (friend + auntie). Sounds good to me my cute little clever pumpkin!

Cecelia has been enjoying her summer break so far and can't wait to have Kiley home with us too. We have fun summer days planned for the girls and Cecelia knows we try to hold off on doing the really fun stuff until Kiley gets here in the summer because we don't want Kiley to miss out on anything.
