26 week 4 day ultrasound!

Oh, what fun your dad and I had today! Sean was at school. Aidan spent the hour at play care. There was no rushing your ultrasound and well, your tipping the weight charts a bit. 2lbs 4oz. I told the tech that I though you would be coming out mid March and that I think the due date is wrong. It appears that you look like Aidan, but with big cheeks... so no real guesses yet. Mom and dad think you are going to have curly hair. That's to be decided yet. Either which way, we were assured you were moving your fingers and toes and that all of your "parts" looked good. Your heart rate was 155 (yes, I drank some juice before I went). You were moving around nicely. The whole appointment only took 30 minutes and your dad and I snuck off for a kid free lunch afterwords. Can't wait to meet you little man!

Love,

Mom

24 weeks

Well, Aaron. .you must be growing by leaps and bounds because your mommy has quite the belly on her. I'm just leaving the second trimester and entering the third. Your father and I have been working on getting a bedroom ready for you and the hardest part seems to be your older brothers. It appears, neither of them want to part with their bedrooms, leaving you with the farthest room from mommy & daddy. Daddy, doesn't see that being a big deal, however I will be the one getting up mostly at night and think the extra 20 feet makes a difference! I suppose you will be in our bedroom for the first three months anyways.

I am having a hard time keeping up with your brother Aidan. He is now 2.5 years old and all I will say is he is 38 lbs and very active. He must know something is about to come because he has me rocking him to sleep at night. He also has the strongest mommy attachment I've ever had. Maybe because he's been at home with me, while Sean was in childcare (because I worked) with him.

I got a nice co sleeper on ebay for you. I got a steal, as you will see it's worth $400.00, but I only paid $50. This will be where you sleep for the first three months : ). You mom likes to bargin shop!




love, mom
