26 weeks!

I was supposed to go to the doctor on Thursday, however I got a phone call on Monday (my day off) telling me he had an emergency surgery Thursday morning.  So I decided to go on my day off instead of working around my work schedule.  I am 26 weeks today but my uterus is measuring 30 weeks.  I looked back at my blog with Parker and this happened around my 29th week with him.  So all this means is the baby could come earlier in April than the original date of April 26th!!  I have a sonogram scheduled in February to check my placenta so we will get a better look then.  The baby's heartbeat was around 137. 
 My growing belly!
 I need to start setting the nursery up, wash sheets and blankets, hang stuff on the walls.  I think I have a longer list than I originally thought!  I better get to work...this pregnancy has FLOWN by!  We can't wait to see if Parker is going to have a baby brother to wrestle with or a little sister to take care of!

Parker's Buddy

Parker and I took a quick trip to Round Rock, TX to visit our best buds.  Heather and I couldn't wait to get the boys together because it was the first time since Parker's been walking that they have played together.  Let's just say they had a blast together! 
Parker 19 months and Brooks 21/2

It was also the first time I got to meet sweet Laney!  She is precious!  She is 3 months and weighs 9 lbs, but she is so long she feels so much lighter!  Look at her cute pj's I got her before she was born.  They say "Off to Aunties" :)
Practicing for my 2nd bundle of joy!
Heather and her cute kiddos!
The boys playing with magnets.  Brooks was so sweet to show Parker how to work new toys and tried to teach him "Yes" instead of  "No"!

We were adventurous and decided to take the kids to the mall.  I wanted to run into Motherhood Maternity and then they had a play area for the boys to play.  Before we left we gave the boys a snack.  I had Parker's in his diaper bag but when he saw that Brooks had his he decided to dig his out so he could be just like him...so cute!  It was a sight to see with 2 boys, a baby and one on the way walking around the mall.

Brooks and Parker had fun hiding in the Caterpillar tent.  It was a quick trip but a fun one for sure!  Parker did so well with Laney too!  He learned how to be quiet around a baby and how to put the pacifier in her mouth.  Maybe he is ready for his brother or sister...we will see soon! :)
