waiting for baby

Well, we are in the waiting game... Less than 2 weeks until the due date! Saw the doctor today and I am:
50% effaced
Dilated to 1

Not that any of this really matters as the baby will come when it comes. Plus I was in full blown labor with benji and barely 1. Time will tell! The lists are done...the bags are packed...now we just wait. The baby is enjoying sticking his/her limbs out on my right side. I guess he/she is getting in good until the time comes...

Eggs

Did you know I can crack eggs all by myself?

Belly Pictures

Mommy and Brooke had to get a belly picture together. My buddy Patrick and I are 10 days apart and mommy and Brooke are due 5 days apart. We are all playing a guessing game wondering how close (or far) these 2 will be!

Surprise!

Aunt Amy, Daddy, and some of mommy's friends planned a surprise "sprinkle" for mommy last weekend. We had a great time celebrating the future arrival of my new baby brother or sister.

Christmas Continued

For Christmas this year, we rented a house on Lake Ontario in Sodus Point. We wanted to have enough room for daddy's whole family. We were right on the lake and enjoyed throwing rocks in the water, playing in the snow, and more! We enjoyed lots of sledding at a hill across the street from our rental house! Mommy took pictures.










A quick visit to the strong museum in Rochester with the daddies while the mommies had lunch out and pedicures! Poor Babi was back in Sodus Point feeling under the weather.



Bath time fun! All the cousins except baby Ella. Mommy entertained us with songs.
Outside our house the plow guy built us a huge pile of snow. We didn't get any pictures of it, but we built a huge fort and tunnel. We had a great time climbing in and out throwing snowballs at the daddies.

Christmas! More to come....
