Pregnancy Photos

Pregnancy photos are always fun for some to look at. Therefore, the few pregnant pictures that we have are posted below. Laura is scheduled to be induced early morning on Monday, August 3. There are taking the baby a couple weeks early due to low platelet count. We are praying that she is healthy and happy.

New Room

The new baby's room has been a work in progress. We purchased new wood furniture and transitioned our old "changing room" into a baby room. Dan's brother, Dave, painted the entire bedroom with two different shades of pink. He did an awesome job. The theme is "Funky Zebra." Although it's a little out of the ordinary, it looks really good every time you enter the room! We still have a few more things to do such as hang the letters and put some frames up. We are awaiting the hang the baby's name until we announce it at the hospital. Next time you come to our home, make sure you stop by and see the new room!

July 4th Celebration

Camp had their annual July4th celebration that included BBQ, carnival games, face painting, softball games, and lots of fireworks. We were in charge of running the carnival games and face painting. It was a very busy day and we had lots of fun. By the time the fireworks came around, Adeline was completely exhausted and ready for bed. Therefore, she missed all of the pretty explosive sight seeing!

Yummy Chocolate!

Adeline is completely independent when it comes to feeding herself. She loves to use a spoon and fork at all her meals. Although it can be quite messy, she still manages to eat most items off her plate. If there is ever an item on her plate that she does not care for, she simply just drops it on the floor for the dog! On this particular morning, Adeline is enjoying a quick breakfast of chocolate pudding. It sure was messy, but very yummy!

Magic House

We were able to take another trip to the Magic House again this summer. Since Adeline has been walking, these types of trips are more enjoyable for us all. She is now able to discover things on her own, without the assistance of others. She is also able to interact with other children more independently.

Bikini Baby

Aunt Lindsy bought Adeline her first bikini for the summer. Adeline recently wore her new bikini in the backyard pool. On this particular day, Dan decided to jump in after a long day at work! They played in the water for several hours.

New Stroller

We finally found the double stroller that we have been looking for. It is very diverse and even turns into a "sit n stand" for when Adeline gets older and does not want sit the whole time. Here is a picture of Adeline practicing riding around in the stroller before her sister arrives. She thought it was fun riding around in the house.

Baby Coming Soon!

As of today (6/10/09), Laura is 31 weeks pregnant. The baby appears to be doing well and is showing no signs of complications. At the most recent doctor appointment, it was estimated that this baby may be a little bigger than Adeline was at 7lbs 7oz. Which means that she is receiving adequate nourishment at this time. Laura is feeling well and has no major complaints. However, the anxiety is starting to set in about having two little ones in the home!
