Big-Girl bed

Well, we've finally finished Megan's big girl room (almost - it still needs some decorating) and today was her first day sleeping in there.

While Megan loves her new room, and constantly wants to play up there, she's having trouble falling asleep in her new bed. It's understandable - there's so much more freedom and exciting stuff in that room to explore - who wants to sleep?

It took an hour for her to fall asleep this afternoon and she slept for 1 hr. And tonight she's finally asleep - after 2 1/2 hrs of playing, squealing, crying, fussing, etc. It's been a rough night for Mommy, Daddy and Megan (and I have a feeling that the rest of the night won't be easy either), but at least she's asleep for now!

Wish us luck over the next couple of weeks. I hope she makes the transition fairly smoothly, so that we can finish getting the nursery ready for Kate's arrival.

I'll post pics once the room is finally finished - hopefully in the next week or so.

New picture of Kate!

I had another ultrasound today, and I'll be getting them now every week until my c-section date. I didn't expect to get any more 3D pics this pregnancy, but the technician was really nice and spent a lot of time trying to get some good ones for me. Unfortunately, Kate likes to keep her hands up by her face, so getting any that showed her whole face was impossible. But she's still a cutie pie!

We're counting down the days - it's now less than 4 weeks away! On Monday, the OB will be taking me off the medication and bedrest, but hopefully Kate will stay put for 3 more weeks until the 27th. We'll see...

Update

We finally have a date for the C-Section - May 27th! So, if I don't go into labor before then, that will be Katelyn's birthday.

We had another growth ultrasound today. Kate now weighs approximately 3lbs, 14 oz. She looks adorable - and the technician even pointed out that she has some peach-fuzz hair on her head.

So - the countdown begins... it's now less than 6 weeks away!
