Hailey's birthday and awaiting the arrival of our little one!

So my last week has been trying to play outside with Hailey as much as possible, switch her over to regular milk, working my last two days of work, trying to decide what to do with the baby's room and decide on a name for him...I know, we've been slackers and then finishing Hailey's birthday invitations and getting decorating ideas. It's been a crazy, crazy week and doesn't show any signs of slowing down anytime soon :) Not only has Hailey had a cold, but she is also getting her two front top teeth; once these come in she will have a grand total of 4 teeth! Needless to say, although most people would never be able to tell, she has had a bit of a rough week. On a good note, she is trying to walk. She will take about 3-5 steps on her own before she starts to worry herself and will sit down or start running for you before she just falls into your arms of safety. It's pretty cute for now but I think once she figures out how to go, she'll be gone... We'll definitely be busy!

I also had my 36 week appointment today. We had an ultrasound to check on the baby's fluid levels and his growth since this is around the same time I was having low fluid with Hailey. The fluid levels are great, right on track and he just like Hailey is small. The are estimating he's about 5lbs. 13oz. give or take 12oz. When we had our ultrasound with Hailey they estimated her to be about 5lbs. give or take 12oz. She was 5lbs. 7oz. when she was born... we're hoping he'll be a little bigger than she was (well actually I think JT is hoping more than me, I don't mind having a small baby at first, ha ha), but as long as he's healthy we're happy. And he has hair!! That's huge for our family :) It wasn't much but it was there! Anyway, I'll keep you posted as time goes on. I'm dialated a little bit so things seem to be on their way.
