Baby Shower for Taylor

My close friends, Tiffany, Lauren, Kristen and Paige, threw me and Taylor an amazing baby shower last Saturday. The decor was so cute and the food was yummy! It was so great to get all the girls together and laugh, tell stories and catch up. Taylor received some great stuff and is already spoiled and has a closet full of clothes. We are so blessed to have amazing people in of life!!

Look who's writing their name....

Jack has been learning about letters at school. He can identify every letter and knows what sound each letter makes. He can write most letters but gets stuck on a few. We've asked Jack a few times to write his name but he won't do it (he's very stubborn and likes to do things on his own time).  The other day we were writing letters on the iPad and I still couldn't get him to write his name. A few hours later, I put him down for a nap and when he woke up, I noticed he wrote his name on his chalkboard.  I couldn't believe it but I was very proud....I knew he could do it!

30 Weeks - 3D Ultrasound

At my 30 week appointment today, we had the 3D ultrasound.  Baby Girl is right on track and everything looks great!  We got to see all her little body parts.  She was very active and at one point her toes were touching her head (she's practicing her high kicks or toe touch).  She has big toes and feet (Jack had big feet too).  We only saw the back of her head because she was facing towards my back.  She weighs a little more then the 3 pounds and my doctor said she will most likely weigh around Jack's weight at birth (he weighed 7 lbs, 4 oz).  Unfortunately, we did not get any pictures because the machines printer was broken.

We finally decided on the name Taylor and we love it!  We haven't decided on a middle name but we have some good options and we're close to making a decision (I think).  Jack already calls her Taylor and is being very sweet to her.  When I leave and say good-bye, he always gives me a hug and kiss and then gives Taylor (my belly) a kiss....it's really cute! He also shares his food with her.  He will put whatever he's eating up to my belly and says "here Taylor, are you hungry"?  He's going to be a great Big Brother and we can't wait to meet our little girl!
