22 weeks and growing....
I know, I know, we haven't posted in awhile. We have been so busy lately as the time is winding down. As you can tell, the ultrasound in January was amazing. There is nothing like seeing your daughter stare back at you for the first time. She will certainly be such a blessing in our lives. She sure has three rambunctious cousins to keep up with. The doctor said everything looks perfect, except for the placement of the placenta. We have to go back on the 7th of March to make sure that it moves up. But the cool thing is, we get to have a 3D ultrasound then. I will get to prove to Marcus that she has his feet. We can't wait!!!!
Marcus will be moving to the Technical Analyst Team. No, I don't know what that is! All I know is that he will be working 8-5 with every weekend off. HALLELUJAH! It will help so much with our schedule. He sure is excited. Work has been so busy lately, with the flu and all. It seems everyone has the flu or strep throat. Can't wait for those daycare germs. I guess it is now or later though, right?
We went on a tour of the daycare and it is AWESOME! $97 a week, but they provide everything except formula and I can nurse twice a day. Marcus doesn't think it is fair that I will get to see her while I'm at work though. They have curriculums for every age, yes, even 6 weeks old. They have lesson plans. The people there are so warm and helpful. They really make you feel good about leaving your baby. I am just glad she will have social interaction. That is so important to us.
We have decided to use Delaney's old bedding that Angie and Ryan have so graciously made available to us. It is alphabet letters in somewhat primary colors. She will have a very bright, happy room.
I still haven't felt Hannah kick yet. I can feel her move and tap dance on my bladder, but not kick. I think she is still a little small. One of the DR at the hospital told me today that if Hannah put her hand palm down with outstretched fingers, that it would fit in the circumference of a QUARTER! That is a little hand. We have a baby in ACH now that was born at 22 weeks, so sad. Her father's wedding ring could fit around her wrist. WOW! That is hard to think about. Anyway, everything else is going well. My belly grows more and more everyday. I still think she is built like her Daddy and needs more room. So far, she pretty much stays in a little ball right in front. Occasionly, she will get stuck on my left side and I have to move her so I can sit comfortably at work. So far, she minds me pretty well. I'm sure that will change.
Elvis is doing great, too. He and Marcus play everyday. I can't really play with him that much, but occasionally he will jump up and lick on my belly. He likes to kiss his little sister!!!!!!!!
Anyway, that is pretty much all that is going on. I hope everyone is doing well. We love all of you and hope to see yall soon.
Love,
Jennifer and Marcus
