I went back to the doctor today to check on sweet little Ella Grace. Fortunately this time I did not get yelled out or made to feel like a blimp so I walked out of there head held high this time. Anyway needless to say things are progressing well with our little angel. Her heartbeat is perfect and she is swimming around like a little fish all hours of the day. She is one active baby!!!! My belly/uterus is measuring a week behind schedule but the doctor did not seem alarmed at all. He said that since Ethan was such a small baby she likely will be too and that is why it appears that I am a little behind the "norm" as far as measurements go. Bad thing about that is, she might be so small that she wont put a lot of pressure on my cervix which could mean she might stay in there and primp all the way to due date and I was kind of hoping to get a week or two reprieve for this whale like feeling :)
Other than baby news there is nothing much to write about around our house. Ethan and I are both finally feeling better and our new secretary/nanny started today and she seems like a good fit so far. She is going to be such a big help to me since things with Joey's business are really busy lately. We hope and pray that continues.
I really need to post some pics of my big boy on here for all to see. He is growing so fast and talking up a storm. Makes me sad to think how fast the time goes by. I really need to be better at capturing these moments but he hates to cooperate for the camera so I usually dont get that many good shots of him anyway.
Well my husband is calling down to me and telling me to wrap it up for the night. I try to blog when I can (which is usually really late at night...like now it's 10:30) because that is usually the first bit of time I get where I am not on mommy, wife, or secretarial duty for once.
Good Night everyone!!!!

so you're measuring small? i thought you were tiny at nessa's wedding! I am measuring almost 2 weeks bigger! so they don't know if he's just a chunker or if they have my date wrong. We will have to wait and see. But earlier would be nicer! I had to wait a week longer for B to come out! Sounds like you might have to as well-- that stinks! So is Ethan still going to school now that you have your nanny/sec'y?
ReplyDeleteYeah I was measuring small at this last weeks visit but I go back on the 20th to get measured again. I am having Braxton Hicks late at night with some pressure when I am on my feet for long periods of time...but for now she seems content where she is.
ReplyDeleteEthan is still in school right now. We are still trying to figure out exactly what we want to do about everything. Gosh these parental decisions really stink :(
