We have been very busy ever since I went back to work August 2nd it seems like. Life will only get busier when Brody gets here! I will be 37 weeks on Saturday. I am on weekly visits now. I went to the doctor yesterday. His heart rate was 143. I go back next Tuesday morning. As of right now they are going to try to let me have him without being induced unless something changes. My body is really sore from him. He is very active too, he moves so much more than Ellie did. Or maybe he's going to be a Benson and be huge. Ellie wasn't huge at birth but she's tall for her age! I go to my thyroid specialist on the 8th and I will learn more about my surgery. I think I am more nervous about that than having Brody. It is a very major surgery. In the long run it will benefit me in so many ways though!
Ellie Raye is doing good! She is so smart! She can say purple and green now! She is learning so many things and amazing me everyday! I am so thankful for how much her grandparents work with her. She is so funny, she lifts my shirt up and points to my belly and says "BUBBY!" She walks up to his room and says "BUBBY" or she will just run around yelling "BUBBY!" She's going to be a great big sister! I think it will be a hard adjustment at first but she will do great. She's very loving and affectionate towards other children. She is getting her top K-9 teeth. So she's had a little bit of a rough past few days. She does so good teething though for the most part.
We will be celebrating Great Grams' Birthday tomorrow night for dinner. I will try to get some pictures over the weekend. I haven't been able to post as much because I am so busy and tired. Hopefully my cellphone pictures keep you a little updated! Oh and Ellie also knocked our laptop over and we aren't sure whats wrong with it....utttto! Here are some pictures from the past week I haven't taken any this week!
Raye and Cousin Clover
MawMaw and PawPaw got Ellie a stroller and baby Nikki. She loves pushing it around everywhere. She plays with it during the week at there house and bring it home over the weekend! Oh she also got a DORA purse, they found it for her as well!
Pushing her baby around in the living room, wait I mean her play room! She's taken the living room over. The TV is normally on NickJr and she has toys everywhere! She does a good job of helping clean up, she's a big helper!
Silly girl playing with her sunglasses!
We found a whole Dora family set of figures at Goodwill in great condition. She loves playing with them!
She loves her Dora plate, she was moving the ketchup to see Dora's face!
She loves to waller all over you when you sit on the couch with her. It's not very comfortable for Me considering how huge my belly has gotten!
Nanny letting Ellie try her first ice cream sandwich. She loves them!
Yummy she ate half of one!
HAHA!
