24 Weeks!




Well, we are a little more then half way there to meeting baby girl #2.  Ella has been very attentive to my belly.  She asks to hug the baby and give her kisses, and at times she just sits next to me while we watch TV and will rub my belly.  It's nice that she is getting to experience this pregnancy with us.  It's one of the perks of being pregnant with a toddler.  But there has been a lot of difficulties too.  Some days I just don't have the patience or energy for the toddler tantrums, and struggles that Ella has been displaying.  I definitely feel more tired this pregnancy, but I guess I have under estimated how exhausting it can be to take care of toddler while trying to keep up with the house, and take care of myself.   But overall the pregnancy has been going well, other then the wicked sweet tooth I have developed.   I am guilty of indulging more this pregnancy then I did with Ella.  Lets hope all the walking we do in Yosemite next week will help take care of those extra calories. 

The Ultrasound pics are from our 19 week scan when we found out the gender.  I promised to post them but never got around to scanning them.   I think it's amazing to see her face close up since we never got any Pics of Ella like that but the rest of the pics did not turn out great.  Ellas ultrasound pics were more defined and we got to see her feet, hands and individual bones.
Next post will be of our Yosemite vacation.  We can't wait to leave town for a little bit and get some exercise outside.  
See you next time!!
