Have Kids

and I feel I am over the hump. There were some tricky times, but I am feeling really good, and Anna is totally thriving. She has started to laugh and gets really excited when she sees me coming to her. She rolled over for the first time two days ago (I have been watching her soooo closely, but she hasn’t done it again yet!). She is so cute and funny and I love spending my days with her!!!

I think Anna was about eight weeks old at this time.

and doing great!

Anna’s two week birthday and our first walk outside together! It was too windy to take her out of the sling for a proper picture, but she’s really in there!

She’s getting so big! She’s already 8 lbs, 1 oz!

born 3/21/2008
7 lbs, 8 oz, 20 inches

Week 41 and 2 days. I am still feeing good, but getting some new sensations!

Me at week 40 and 5 days!!!

Two due dates have come and gone! I’m still in no hurry, though. I am enjoying these last days of baby still on the inside, and am doing little things I didn’t have time for earlier, like making a nice Calm Mix on itunes for my labor, whipping up some home remedies for after baby’s birth, organizing Belly Shots albums for the grandmas, watching the sling instructional DVD, practicing using said sling as well as the diapers, taking walks, enjoying quiet time with daddy, and of course, knitting, knitting, knitting!!! (attaching pic of daddy with sling—he did this whle I was brushing my teeth last night—funny guy!)

I have started to feel some more southerly movement—baby is trying out some new moves or exploring the exit, or something, but I haven’t felt anything labor-like yet.

Me at the very end of week 39!!
