33 weeks and counting!

Things have been going well the last few weeks. Brie has been talking up a storm and is learning her colors. She is a little mocking bird and repeats almost everything we say. She loves to help mommy and daddy and read. Most of our days lately are spent reading books. She loves to identify all of the animals and look at the pictures.

This weekend Brie spent Saturday night with Nana and Pop Green. She had a great time playing with her cousins Christian and Brandon. By the time we came to get her Sunday evening Nana and Pop were ready for a nap themselves. They even had the help of Nanna and Poppop Miller. Brie ate fairly well for them and did sleep at their house, although not in her bed, but theirs. Since her last cold we have been battling to keep her in her own bed. She has been waking up at 130 and wanting to come to our room. We have resisted and kept her in her own crib, but it has not been easy. Since she has been back home she has been fine with her crib. Hopefully that continues. We are planning on keeping our new little munchkin in our room for the first 3 months so 4 would be alot for one room!

So far this pregnancy is going well. There are only 4 weeks until my scheduled c-section. I am getting pretty uncomfortable, but at the same time excited to still be pregnant. I know these 4 weeks will go quickly and then we will really have our hands full. This weekend we plan to pick out some presents for Brie for when Sophia arrives. Brie will be the first visitor to hold her and see her after she is born and we want to give her a baby of her own to feed and change so she can "help" mommy and daddy.

While Brie was away this weekend we made some real progress on Sophia's room. All of the trim is touched up and we just need to touch up the ceiling and put the crib together and she will be set. She will not sleep in there for a few months, but I feel like she should have a room that is hers before she is born. After my next ultrasound we will wash all of Brie's little clothes (preemie, newborn and 0-3 months) .
