26 Weeks!

Apparently my week 25 blog decided to delete itself. Hopefully I can somehow restore it. That is really odd!!!!!

For some reason I forgot to do this yesterday so it is a day late. I realized that I had forgotten when my dog woke me up for about the 10th time this morning barking. Having a dog has gotten us a little prepared for the baby, we have had to lose some of our selfish lives over the past couple months due to Kate. Our lives are going to be getting even less selfish in December.

I went to the doctor last week and got to meet with my new doctor for the first time. She said that Annabelle is measuring big and that she will be a big baby. My due date is going to stay the same, December 14th. I get the hour long glucose test next visit which I am kind of nervous about due to different reasons. After that visit I start going every 2 weeks to see the doctor and then at the end of October I start going weekly. I am very much looking forward to Annabelle's baby shower in October. Her nursery is finally finished! It is beautiful, Jason and the cats worked so hard on it. We still have to find some art to hang on the walls - Jason is going to try and make some himself. We kind of want some of those wall words to go behind the crib - the crib is huge!!! All the furniture is so nice. We did have to take the changing table back to Target though because when we opened it we noticed some bad places in the wood. Luckily they had another one and that one was perfect. Scottie cat loves to sleep under the crib, she also jumped into it from the window sill. Too bad there is no mattress so somehow the 12+ pounder managed to slide through the bars to the bottom. I think the worst part is that Jason and I both saw her and knew that she was going to jump, knew what would happen when she did but let her jump anyway lol.

Annabelle is still a very active baby - she did not want the doctor to get her heartbeat. The doctor had it for a couple seconds and then the baby started moving. I think it took about 4 mins for her to settle down enough for the doctor to get the hb. It was 158 this time. Jason got to see her move in my stomach and then he put his head there so she kicked him. He has been trying to teach her multiplication tables this week - she apparently doesn't like that too much.
