Marble Painting

Charlotte found a marble outside and has been obsessed with it so today we put it to good use by making a marble painting.

Add paints to paper.

Put in marbles.  Since we only had one, we added jingle bells and golf balls.

Roll around.  The jingle bells didn't work well, but the golf balls and marble did.

I had an appt. today and she said I was progressing nicely, yay!  I am about 3cm dilated and she did what is called "stripping of the membranes" in hopes to start something.  If it works, it works within 3 days so fingers crossed.  Weight gain is 25lbs.

After the rain

After 3 straight days of steady rain, these two were very happy to get outside and play.  She was one busy girl!

Ready to get her teeth cleaned

Such a trooper!

All clean!  She had some staining due to the small amount of iron we have in our water, but nothing that would lead to cavities. Dentist said teeth were in great shape.

Update

I spoke with my doctor this morning and she said everything looked great.  The placenta has moved so there is no need for a c-section, yay!

35 weeks

I had a doctor appt on Thursday and everything was great. Total weight gain was 24lbs.  I had an ultrasound this morning and baby girl was in the 64th percentile for growth.  The weight came in around 6lbs 5oz, but being this far along makes it less accurate.  It can be off as much as a pound, let's hope! I haven't confirmed with the doctor yet, but she said the placenta looks ok.  It has to be 2cm away from the cervix.  I feel great and I have to say this little girl is much more active than Charlotte was.  The ultrasound tech said she was going to come out running!
