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.
