Down to the final 10

So today we are 29weeks and 5days. Ava Rose has been being real active. At our appointment this morning, she measured out at 3lbs11oz, which is in the 80th percentile. She let us get one good picture of her little foot! and guess what, just like Daddy her bigtoe and the toe next to it are the same size. I sure do love those cute little toes!
We also got to see the hair on her head today. Guess the old wives tale about heartburn is true.

This appointment also started the down hill stretch of appointments. Now we will go in every 2 weeks for routine check ups! This means 5 more appointments and she will be here!

Chubby Cheeks

So we had to wait until we made it to 28 weeks before Aunt Phyllis would do a 4D sonogram. Well time has finally come.
Before starting the 4D we scanned Ava Rose just to check everything out. Her heart rate was 150, right on track with what we have been getting with our doppler. Feet were precious, little hands too! She measured out to be about 2lbs 14oz. just above the average. She was sucking her thumb through the first part of her pictures.
Time for 4D! She has the cutest little nose. And Chubby Cheeks!!!! I wish everyone could have seen Brian's face as he was watching what she looks like. He was beaming!
I'll post pics this weekend, gotta get them scanned to the computer!

13 weeks to GO!

Ok so we are 27weeks now! She should be around 2lbs. and by now she should be opening and closing her eyes. Very exciting!

Monday I took the gestational diabetes test and what happens... I fail by 2 points! Of course I tried to sweet talk Dr. Gebhart into letting me slide and not do the 3 hour next Monday but it didn't work. So Monday I have to be at the dr's office at 7AM--OHMY! I don't get up that early!
Other than failing the GD test, Everything is going smoothly right now. My belly measured out just right, iron level was good, weight was good. Sonogram is scheduled in 3 weeks, Nov 23rd.

Halloween was fun! I painted my belly to look like a pumpkin! Ava Rose wiggled the whole time i was painting, not sure if it was cold or if it tickled!Brian was so worried that the paint was going to hurt Ava Rose. I had to paint take pictures and wash it off. He is so protective and its CUTE!
