27 Weeks

We had an ultrasound appointment this week, and everything looked good!  She had plenty of amniotic fluid and her left kindey is not any worse than it was 5 weeks ago at our appointment with Dr. Perry.  We see him again in 3 weeks and are hoping for another good report.  We seriously cannot thank our friends, family and church enough for all the thoughts and prayers!

We haven't bought anything for little girl!  Well, we ordered her furniture and bedding but nothing else.  I can't decide if we are really behind or not?!  I've heard from a few people that it's a good idea to buy a box of diapers everytime I am in Target (to spread the cost) so we started that today.  Layla officially has 2 boxes (they were on sale) of Pampers Swaddlers Newborn diapers!  I am going to get Size 1 next time.

It's been a fast and busy weekend.  We went to the Back Door Restaurant in Columbia with Brittany and Austin on Friday night.  Chrissy and I went shopping in Gulport Saturday and I got a Snoogle!  It is the best thing ever!!  Last night we had dinner with Chris and Amber and got lots of parenting advice!  Today we went to church and Target.  Now I have to pack up and head to Jackson for a week long work conference.  Ugh, I need a nap!

27 Weeks.

Closed eyes are my specialty.
