32 Weeks and Feeling Great

I am such a blog slacker, I know. We have been SO busy lately and just haven't had the time. Life is going great though. I can hardly believe that September is just a little more than a week away, and HOLY COW.....I am 32 weeks pregnant. I only have 56 days left!! I was three days early with Anna, so I'm guessing I might be even a few days earlier with Andrew. I could go for a 10/10/10 baby. My due date isn't until the 17th but it's a shot.
We had a hospital tour this past week of where we will deliver and it made us so excited. This hospital has 3 floors for the maternity department and 70 birthing rooms. It's huge but has a GREAT reputation for good nurses and staff. I'm pretty excited, (in case you couldn't guess).
Andrew is doing great. He's growing right on schedule and is really healthy. I think I hit a growth spurt this weekend. All of the sudden I feel GINORMOUS! I can hardly believe how active he is. I don't think that he ever stops kicking. Anna wasn't like that at all. I was always worried about her because she was so calm in my tummy. This little guy won't quit.
I cannot believe how much love I already feel for him. Maybe it's because I already know what it is like to love a child of our own, but I just feel like I adore everything about him and he's not even here yet. We talk about him all the time. I can't wait to meet him. I think these next few weeks are going to continue to fly. I sure hope so because I'm getting pretty anxious.

Anna Banana

We haven't blogged in a while. We haven't been up to too much lately but have been having a lot of fun. Anna learned to eat cereal this week. She LOVES it. She even drinks the milk when she's done. She also has an obsession with her baby dolls. She calls them her "me-be's" and they come EVERYWHERE. She feeds them their bottles and checks their ears like the doctor does. She loves giving them lot of kisses and pats them on the back and gives LOTS of hugs. She's got a definite nurturing side to her. It's amazing to us.

This is Anna watching home videos with all the baby dolls she could carry. She LOVES wearing Daddy's hat too!

When Anna woke up from her nap, she begged to get in her stroller. For the next 45 minutes she just sat there and ate lots of blueberries. We kept asking her if she wanted to get out but she wouldn't let us touch her. She just sat there, doing basically nothing and was completely content. She's a funny girl.

She did play lots of peek-a-boo!

I know this photo is really out of focus but these are her new little shoes. She wears them everywhere and loves it.

So Cute

Don't you think these are just the cutest little pair of shoes you've ever seen? I found them today at a local store and fell in love. I think they look so handsome. I had a pair of shoes or two that I was obsessed with for Anna, and I think think these are my obsession shoes for Andrew.

We took some family pictures about a month ago and just forgot to blog them. I think I definitely go through blogging spurts. I'll blog a lot and then nothing for a long time. When my brother asked me if my computer was broken since I haven't blogged in so long, I figured it was time to update. I think the pictures of Josh and Anna, (the two look-a-likes), are by far my favorite ones. Take a look!

Anna loves her Granny!! She calls her da-ga. Don't ask me why! Every time I'm talking to my mom on the phone, Anna just has to listen and grins ear to ear.

Do you think that Anna could possibly look any chunkier in this picture? I don't think so!!

Our Little Sunbeam

Today was Anna's first day in nursery at church. She hit the eighteen month mark on Tuesday and is now officially a nursery girl. I had full faith that she would do great and love every minute of it. However, I think she was a little scared and didn't like it very much. She has fantastic teachers though, so I know it won't be long until she's loving it like the rest of them. We had to take a picture of her big day. This is just the start of big days for this girl. It's really fun as the parent. We were just so happy for her!

Anna Banana

How could you not just love this girl? Anna is so much fun. These are just a few pictures we took of her this past week. Her hair looks extra curly. This is the cute little face we see all day long.

She looks like a basketball coach, trying to figure out what the next play should be. :-)

More Pictures

These are the last of our Georgia pictures. This picture below is of Anna helping me use the beaters. She LOVES holding them. She smiles and laughs the whole time. It's adorable. We tried all kinds of different swim devices with Anna and she refused all of them. She just wants to be held the whole time. Thank goodness she has a great daddy for that.

We got to visit my grandma several times while we were there. It was really great to see her.

Anna loved seeing the water. As soon as we'd pull up, she would start running down the hill without hesitation to be the first one there.

We also learned that "Head Shoulders Knees and Toes" is her favorite song. She can't do it very well but she's learning.

Anna loved sitting with Grandpa on the swing and watching the doggie.

While we were there, we went to visit a family that had this incredible property. It was unreal. I think every part of their land was a picture perfect spot.

They let us drive their cart. I felt like a little girl. It was so much fun.

This is a picture of their barn that he designed and built himself. He even hand poured these stones and dyed them to look like real stone. It was incredible.
