34 weeks and an excited big brother

34 weeks ...

I don't have a 34 week photo from Henry's pregnancy ... I do have a 36 week one, so it will be interesting to compare. so far so good as much as we know. still going to the doctor weekly for appts/exams to see how the contractions are affecting the progression. the contractions are still around ... they will be pretty frequent for 3-4 days and then slack up a little for 3-4 days. who knows what's going on in that belly!

owen has been very active the last 10 days; I can't wait to see his gymnastics routines in person because they are certainly impressive in utero! he gets the hiccups a lot. henry did as well. I still crave cherry sprite or shirley temples like none other-and normally I am not a huge cherry anything fan.

as we've been getting all the old baby clothes, toys, bottles, etc., out and washing and preparing them, henry has been very enthusiastic about his upcoming role of big brother. we still don't think he knows exactly what all is involved, but his sweetness with regards to Owen is touching nonetheless.
big brother jommers and llama llama ... thank you auntie dee and uncle joe!

henry thought climbing in and out of owen's car seat was a blast. at one point he just sat in the seat and talked to himself for about 20 minutes.

he also liked the moses basket ... as I was washing the liner and such, he laid down in it and said "take a nap in baby brother's basket." this is no exaggeration.

we've been praying for snow today, but alas, no such luck. there is still hope for later in the winter though! in the meantime, stay warm and happy friday.
