We're still waiting!

As of right now we are still waiting for this little girl to make her arrival. I'm due in just 4 1/2 weeks now, so we are very grateful she has been able to keep cooking this long. I was in the hospital last week for about 24 hours, while the nurses and my Dr stopped my labor. Now i'm on a medication to stop the contraction and progression, but it doesn't work like they want. I'm still contracting and progressing some, but not as much as i would if i wasn't taking it. So right now it's the best thing to do. Luckily I have had the blessing of my Dad coming to take care of me and Aby and give Jeremy a little room to breath. Next week, my Mom is going to come, and i can't wait to see her and be able to spend time with her. I will be taking off the medication in about a week if not sooner, and my dr predicts i will go almost immediately into labor. We are so exited to have this baby come and join our happy family. Aby is going to love having a playmate!! We'll keep ya updated as things happen.

Aby and Ryan

Aby and Ryan
Aby and ryan share a swing so little Ryan can try it out for the first time. They both loved it!! lot's of giggles that day! Ryan is almost a year old and is half Aby's size!

First Swimming experience

First Swimming experience
Aby Really didn't know what to think of the pool. Especially after such a traumatic experience in the tub just a few day's before this. She was trying the big tub for the first time with out her seat, and slipped around and bonked her head a few times and really didn't like it. The pool wasn't much different, she was scared to even touch the water. She learned after a while that mommy wasn't letting go and it was ok to smile.

Aby loves to eat everything, but her favorite thing to do is play with her Hair after she's done. This is one of many hair styles she creates using her dinner as styling gel.

Riding the duck

Riding the duck
Aby has a new love, her duck. She has always loved playing with her duck in the tub, and having them on the shower curtain, but she never new how great the duck really was until she got to ride her new duck. Everytime she see's this thing she giggles! She has learned to sit on it by her self and rock just a little before she falls off. I think this is one of the best toys ever made!

Yeah over the half way point, and well, getting to the uncomfortable stage. Still feeling alright for the most part, but with such a busy life who wouldn't be tired!

Jeremy's Scholarship Pose
Jeremy was selected for a $6,000 Scholarship!!! Amazing isn't it! He had to write an essay and answer some question's and they only give 3 of these scholarships out each year. Jeremy did a great job and was lucky to be chosen! They are publishing the winners in a big Aviation magazine in Aug, with his picuter and a short discription of him. We are so proud of you Jer!!
