At my monthly appt. last week, my doctor felt like I hadn't grown enough and sent me for an ultrasound to check the size and condition of the baby. I had my ultrasound yesterday morning and am happy to report that our little girl is right on track at a whopping 6 lbs. 3 oz. already! She is just fine but my fluid is a too low and the doctor recommend lots and lots of rest. I am supposed to rest every time Noah does and more if I can fit it in! Who has time to rest that much? I will be monitored weekly now and will have to be induced if the fluid levels drop anymore. So... feeling a little like it's time to pack my bags and get things ready!
Time sure flies when you are having fun! I can't believe it is time already for our little girl to join us. I, at the very least, wanted Noah to be walking by the time the baby was born, but he doesn't care too much for it. He took about three steps this morning, and we haven't been able to get a repeat performance since. Noah is expanding his vocabulary, though! He has started saying a couple of more words like duck, stairs, "no, no, no" and "all done!" It is very cute to hear him saying all done when he is finished with a meal or the bath. Let's hope that we can get him walking before the little one arrives. In the meantime, I will be sewing like crazy to finish up her receiving blankets and nightgowns and moving some furniture around to make room for her cradle in our bedroom.
We will keep you all posted if anything changes and we get sent to the hospital. I wonder what it's like to actually go into labor by myself! :)

I am so excited for you. I can't wait to meet her. Hannah will say words but not if you are asking her to. She says them when no one is listening. When you hear it she wont repeat herself. She will say Jesus once in a while. She will shake her head for yes if she wants something. I wish she would talk more. But she is being a stink and wont let us hear her. I was telling Blair how you can have Emma any day. We can't believe it. But then again I think Rya is almost here also.
Emma will be her name? I love it. So so sweet. Best of luck Megan! What an adventure ahead for you. It's so funny.. at Amy's shower when we were all talking about being pregnant, it turns out I indeed was! Just didn't know it yet. :)
Good luck with your new baby! And with having two to carry around. I hope he gets with the walking soon.
How exciting!!! I love the name Emma. So cute!
oh wow! I can't believe you are so far along! How exciting!!! you def need to keep us updated :D and hopefully we will get to see you sometime soon... but my fluids got too low with ashlyn, that's why they induced me. I wonder why that happens? but it sounds like your little girl is plenty big enough to come anytime :D
Exciting, exciting. I was knitting E. a hat, but you know me... she'll have outgrown it by the time I finish. :) Just you wait, N. will be walking all the time before you know it. I'm still betting H. will be 18 mnths before he walks. Darn kid, it's like he's on his own time table.
I'm so excited for you guys!!! Get lots of rest - I know easier said then done :0). Can't wait to meet her!
