29 Weeks Pictures etc


Since there are no pictures of Evangeline to coo over I decided you all could coo over us instead . . . or failing that you can coo over our cat babies!! I have also included a picture of the yummy wine I could not enjoy at wine tasting last night so that anyone who likes wine can be as sad as I was!!

Watch this space for . . .

The u/s pictures. Evangeline behaved herself a little more yesterday and we got some good pictures, but then the printing machine broke so we don't have the pictures yet :-( But they will be up ASAP.

Naughty Baby and 27 week update

So . . . the 3D Ultrasound did not exactly to plan due to Evangeline deciding to bury her head in the placenta and not allow any pictures. We could see part of her face - enough to see that she has Daddy's chin and Mummy's lips. We also saw her pout and stick out her tongue! But, all in all it was a bit disappointing and we are returning next week for another try!!
I did have an u/s at the docs today and she looked like she was still in a difficult position for photographing! But, since I am now in the third trimester I thought it time for another update!

Weeks: 27!
Weight gain: 19 pounds total (eek)
How big is baby: a bit over 2 pounds
Maternity Clothes: Yes! Although still in some non maternity dresses. This fact makes me happy.
Stretch marks? No but no doubt working on it
Sleep? Good except last night when baby decided I would be awake
Movement: LOTS!
Food cravings? Not really although on Saturday I demanded Pumpkin Latte, ice cream and cucumber sandwiches for dinner
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss? Still champagne and spinning class. I also miss being able to move around quickly
What am I looking forward to? Baby showers coming up and the second attempt at 3D.
Milestone? I took the glucose test today and I am now having appointments every two weeks so it will all go even faster from now on. AND we have Evangeline's pram all set up. It is too cute and I will be sure to take a picture of it with the fabulous new camera we have thanks to Bill and Judy!!!

Pictures to follow next week . . . I hope!

Back from Europe

Evangeline very much enjoyed her first trip to Europe. So much so that she double the size of my legs one night just to show her appreciation!!
Seriously though, we had a wonderful time and did not want to leave. Any worry I had about flying was not necessary and we even got upgraded coming home by the nice Steward called Iain. I highly recommend British Airways to everyone. Gramps' 90th Party was a LOT of fun with family and friends. We stayed a night with Helen and Caleb in the Castle and then moved on to France to see Claire and Yann. Both of these visits were fabulous and too short. Finally we went to Kent to see Daddy and Judy and to attend Jen and Mark's Wedding.
Evie behaved herself for her first ever bridesmaid duty and only kicked me once during the ceremony. Linda's masterwork on the dress meant I didn't look too hideous.
Here are a few pictures from our lovely lovely trip to England and France . . . . complete with bump and a pint of beer.




Saturday is our 4D u/s and then we have a 27 week u/s at the docs the day after Labor Day. Yay!!
A brief word of congratulations to Gara and Brandon Hill who's son Travis was born August 25th. He is a very handsome young man and we are really very excited for them.
