Camera Update

I meant to write this in my last post, but I forgot! You'll notice in the last picture that I took a picture of myself with a camera, not the camcorder this time! As you know, our camera died a couple months ago and we were holding off on buying a new one (hello, we have baby stuff to buy!) and one day my mom called up and said, "You remember how about a year ago we lost our camera and I bought a new one? Well, we found the old one!" It was in perfect condition, and since they already have a new one they gave it to us!! How nice was that?

Thanks a lot, mom and dad!!

Third Trimester

Yesterday was the first day of the third trimester, so I thought I would take a picture and give an update!

The baby still moves around all the time - but now the movements feel huge. I think he/she throws a disco party every night and then sleeps off the hangover during the day :)



I have also been having lots of braxton-hicks contractions. They say these are normal, but they're still a little annoying. The good news is that they don't hurt!



Overall, I can't really complain. I have been really lucky to have a good, healthy pregnancy so far. The first trimester was a little bit rough for a few weeks with nausea and exhaustion, but that's been gone for awhile now and it's been pretty smooth sailing. They say the third trimester is not as much fun as the second, which I can imagine, I'm just hoping that the eating right/exercising that I've been doing helps with that. We're still right on target for dates, which is fantastic. So, in about three months we should have a new little one!

Why Jersey will love the baby...

I was very excited to buy this barely used jogging stroller from someone on craigslist. It's going to be awesome! When I got it home, I cleaned it and then immediately had to try it out....and since there's no baby yet, Jersey got to try it!

I think she liked it a lot. Can't you tell?? :)
