Piper is great!

Another visit to the Dr. today and all is well. My blood pressure was 98/56 and my heart rate 107. I am STILL the same weight I have been the last 4 visits! Who knew grinding your own wheat, making fresh bread with it, and using it in your cooking would be so good for you! I know, I know I sound like a food storage freak, but I am proud of it! I am now learning to use bean flour. YUM! Anyway, all is well and I will be back at the Doc.'s in 2 weeks then I start going every week. Where has the time gone?

Doctor's Appointment

This will be a very short post. I have not gained or lost any weight again this check up. My blood pressure is good and so is my sugar. Piper is head down (the Doc. says) and is very active still. I am feeling the very normal aches and pains of the 3rd trimester. I will see the Dr. in 2 weeks again. We are hoping for Piper to weigh between 7 lbs to under 8 lbs 10 ounces. I don't know if I could handle any bigger (that is emotionally not physically). When they are bigger they don't look like newborns. My favorite time!

Progress

Tonight was quilt club and I love it! I got a lot done today and decided that crazy nine patch is my FAVORITE pattern. It is easy and the rules are sort of thrown out the window. I am even more happy with my fabric choices. These aren't the finished product. I still need to make several more blocks and then square them up. I will keep updating!

Piper's blanket

This will be a short post. For those who wanted to see what colors we have chosen for Piper's blanket here is the picture. I will post updates and I get the blanket going. I missed my last class because John and I went on a date. Those are few and far between!

Baby Update

Wow two posts in the same week I must be getting organized again! I had my Dr.'s appointment today and things are still going well. My blood pressure was a little low but not so much that the Doc. was worried. I didn't gain or lose any weight in the past month so I am VERY proud of myself. The baby is growing but thankfully I am not! :) I am now down to going every two weeks. Piper will be here before we know it and I am so EXCITED! So is Mallory; she can't wait to be a the big helper and take care of Sadie and Piper. What a great big sister!

Can you guess which is Mallory and which is Sadie?

Never too late..

It has been a long week but an exciting one. We are officially moved into our new home and we LOVE it! It is a lot to clean and take care of but it feels like home. Thank you to all that helped move us. I was on the sidelines again because of my ever growing tummy and appreciated all the help from you. I would like to get out official thank you cards but I can't seem to find them. All of the rooms are mostly unpacked and put away except for Piper's room and the office.

I have included pictures of the new house, Mallory, and Sadie. I can't believe how big these girls are getting. It seemed like only yesterday Sadie had the toddler look and now she looks like a little girl. Time goes by so fast!
