Wiggle Worm!

Hey guys! I just thought I would give a little update this month. We just had our 24 week appointment last Monday. It was incredibly uneventful, so I am glad that Dustin didn't take a day off to come. I just got weighed and they took my blood pressure.

Our next appointment - 28 weeks - is not going to be near as easy. I will have to take a glucose test to check for prenatal diabetes. We will be in the office for an hour (they check you at the beginning and then again after an hour has passed) so we will be able to get a lot of our questions about labor and delivery answered at that time. Our OB only delivers in KC, so delivering in Lawrence is not an option for us. We get to choose between Overland Park Regional and Shawnee Mission Medical Center. It's a fairly easy decision for us since OP Regional is only a 30 minute drive and right off of the highway. In the next month or two, we will get to tour the hospital so we will know where to go on D-Day. :)

Quite a bit has changed in belly world since my last post. I have started to show quite a bit and I swear there must be a dance party going on in there. She has been very active in the past week or so! Not too long ago, I was sitting on the couch with the remote sitting on my stomach (it has become a very handy little table) and she kicked the remote right off my stomach!! Last night I was laying down and I started to SEE her move! It was unreal! I grabbed my phone and took a quick video and you can see it - clear as day!

We are planning on doing our baby registry this week. We are planning on registering at BuyBuyBaby - it's an AMAZING baby store that is owned by Bed Bath & Beyond and their stores are set-up in the same fashion. It's like a baby wonderland! :) They have a store in Overland Park and also an online store. We will register for the bulk of our items there since they have such an amazing selection. We will also register at Target for those who don't do online shopping - I know not everyone does. (FAMILY:: my sisters will be throwing a baby shower for me Dec. 4th at my parents house in Council Grove - I know December fills up quickly for most of us!)

In the next week or so, we plan to start painting and decorating Nibblet's room. I am planning on painting the walls a light blue and accenting with baby pink and hot pink. I am so excited to get started! We already have her crib in the room, so it is already starting to become more and more real! I can't believe she will be here in 15 weeks or so! So exciting!

Well...I will leave off with a picture. This is at 24 weeks!

Here is the video of her moving at 25 weeks!
