Fluttering

My best gift yesterday I received in the wee hours of the morning. 'TBD', as my dad temporarily named the growing baby, danced and I felt the movement for the first time this pregnancy. I was all sighs and smiles :)

Tangled

Just finished combing thru Guinevere's hair. It took over an hour. Her tangles had tangles... So much so it resembled a bird's nest. For real! I was pleased we got through it and I didn't have to cut out the mess. However I did decide after returning to silky soft hair to give her a trim. I cut about 1.25 inches. This was her 3rd cut. Again, I'm so glad we got here - phew. 

Another go round with poop play?!

This morning Adelaide woke me with her usual calls/shouts. I was hoping to let Guinny sleep in since she stayed up late, so I was going swoop A' up and leave the room. But as I opened the girl's bedroom door a strong smell overcame me. I found Adelaide standing in her crib with her footsie pjs unzipped (down to her ankle), her diaper off, fudgy poo on her butt, hands, and a little on her face. Her diaper was open sitting next to her and the majority of the brown goodness sitting in a neat pile in the middle of her pillow. There was also smears on her blanket, pjs, and Cookie Monster friend. If she wanted to 'paint' she could have done a whole lot of damage with this load. I think she just wanted it off and wasn't going to wait on me. Needless to say my morning started with bathing Adelaide and laundry. Hahaha... Already laughing about it :)

My super power is diminishing

In previous years during pregnancies Rick gave me many compliments about how I acted, grew, looked, and my general health. I claimed pregnancy as my super power! Don't get me wrong, I still experienced some pretty typical morning sickness, blood sugar drops, swelling, weepiness/moods, fatigue, shortness of breath... But all in all was in a great mood. While expecting the girls I worked thru; actually with G, I worked even the morning of. With Adelaide I planned to do the same, but ended up taking a day or two off beforehand. This go round I'm at home and it seems much different.
