Happy half birthday to me!!!

Well, Mom...welcome to the 3rd trimester! Mom is 28 weeks along now which means that I'm 6 months old. And as a consequence, her hands are swelling, her pelvic bones are painfully moving, the morning sickness and nausea are creeping their way back into the day, and she's getting bigger and bigger!


Mom went to the doctor today for another check-up and things still look good. As usual, the nurse had to chase me all over the place to get my heartbeat, but she finally caught me and got a reading of 156 beats/minute. Since we're at week 28, Mom also had to do a glucose test to test for gestational diabetes. Thankfully, the sugary drink just tasted like Sprite, though, so the procedure wasn't bad at all. Mom was brave when they took blood, too! Nice going, Mom!


The doctors and Mom have noticed that I've been hanging out on the right side of Mom's belly all the time. Well, duh! How else can I be her right-hand man (or woman). Actually, the real reason is because Mom just recently had her gall bladder taken out and so there's a little bit more room on that side. Hey, every little bit counts! This LittleBit can count, too. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... Ok, I'll stop with the puns now. :)


We got our new house! This Saturday is technically moving day but Mom and Dad have already begun to move boxes from the apartment to the new place. I also met one of my neighbors and found out that they have a little baby girl! I hope we can play together soon!


This past weekend, Grammie and Grandpa came up from Kentucky to visit. We had a lot of fun going to see the Wizard of Oz together (I liked the munchkins best), and they also helped Mom and Dad assemble my bedroom! My crib, stroller, swing, and rocking chair are all ready to go. They're just missing one part - me!


Grammie and Grandpa got me this awesome shirt that I can't wait to start wearing. It says, "Diaper Loading: 76% Complete". I love it! Here are some pictures of some other cute onesies that I hope to purchase online once I get my first credit card (I hope my credit is good enough).
