24 weeks and counting......









So we are really getting excited about baby Lola's arrival. I have been busy picking out nursery decor for this little girl and man can it get a bit overwhelming!!! :-) There are so many beautiful things out there for little girls, it's crazy compared to what they have for boys! I finally picked out her crib bedding so now it's off to the paint store to find the perfect color for the walls. Here's a picture so you can get an idea of what we're doing, I love it! It's beautiful fabric and I love the light pink & green together! :-) In other baby news, I have gained about 14 lbs and she is moving so much more, Zach & Jackson have both been able to feel her kick. It's so different this time around too, the kicks are much softer compared to the boys! Hmmm...Wonder Why??!! :-) Jackson just loves to sit with me at night and keep his hand on my belly waiting for any movement, it's so cute! :-) He seems really excited about another baby coming, we shall see how that changes once she's here!!! :-)


As for Zach and the boys, they are all doing great! Zach just got another new Kayak and is in his glory! He took it out on the river this past weekend and said it's just awsome! Jackson seems to be doing great health wise. No transfusions since November and we meet with his specialists in February to talk about when we may do surgery. I am excited, but nervous about this as you can imagine. No one whats to see their little boy get wheeled into surgery but I know that in the end he wll feel sooooo much better and we all can get on with life, especially Jackson!! Max is walking a bit more everyday, we got his first few steps here on video so be sure to check that out. He is talking more and more too, points at everything and waves Hi and Bye-Bye to everyone! He's at that age too where he wants to know where mom is and sometimes crys when I leave. It makes me sad but also happy because the minute I get back he is all about mom!!! :-)


So I think that's about it for now, I'll keep you posted on how things are going as they progress! Miss my friends and family up there in MI, but know that I'm thinking of all of you and hoping you get some warm weather soon!! Hugs to you all! :-)

Heather you look Great!! I agree I can't believe how much girls bedding is out there. You got to be having soo much fun. Especially after having the boys. I don't think Andre is far from walk also. I think he will be by the end of Feb. It's all so exciting but overwhelming at the same time. I want him to walk but it's all going to fast!

Hey Heather, how exciting, a girl on the way! Interesting you mentioned her soft kicks, I'm feeling the opposite this time around, like whoa this little boy is going to be rowdy! :) Take care.
