Reaching the 41st week....again!

Well...Here I am again. Reaching, and passing the "official" due date. Shocking hey?! 9 Months, 13 inches, and 25 lbs later, I am definitely ready to call it quits again! Thankfully this time I already have an end in sight, and pregnancy number two will go no longer than 5 days overdue. I will be induced the morning of December 2nd if baby girl is still a no-show.

Cameron turns Two!

It's hard to believe how fast these last two years have gone. He is such a great kid, and we love him to pieces!


He is still a skinny little guy, but tall, at exactly 3 feet. He loves to throw balls, and play hockey. He enjoys his scooter, and loves getting out of the house, and going for car rides. He is very animated, and his language skills are improving rapidly.

The cake is the big deal for me. I think about it for weeks in advance because I enjoy it so much. He is into a couple of things these days. He has 3 stuffed animals that go to bed with him...A little Bulldog, Pooh Bear, and "Raaa". (A lion).


For his birthday, we decided to rent out a pool and board room at a hotel. We invited some friends, spent the first hour in the pool and hot tub, then ate some pizza, cake, and opened presents.



Cameron has been talking about getting a bike for a few months now, so Daddy and I came through for his birthday, with a brand new Orange Strider bike!

Check-in with baby

I finally got in to the OB/GYN I wanted to see. Wish I had been referred to him much sooner, but better late than never! He asked a few questions, and checked everything over. My uterus measured a little on the smaller side, so he sent me for an ultrasound to make sure baby was still doing well.

The ultrasound was this morning, and baby looks good. She is currently weighing in at around 5lbs 10oz. At this stage she will gain around 1/2 a pound a week, which should bring her birth weight right around 7 1/2 lbs.

Our big, grown up boy, in his big, grown up bed.

Cameron has been getting out of his crib for a few months now. It didn't happen all that often at first, and it was usually only during nap-time. He would get out, and play with his toys on the floor.

Recently though, his skill level improved to getting out even with his sleep-sack on...so we decided since the danger level had been upgraded, it was time to make the BIG switch to a BIG bed.

We moved most of his toys into the basement, and kept a few tucked away in his closet, so there are very few distractions at night! He has taken to it pretty well so far. Nap-time is still a work in progress, but night-time is improving. Last night, he was asleep in less than 10 minutes. Now all we have to work on is making sure he doesn't fall out!
