Growing Inch by Inch

We're growing so big! Both Lucy and mama are getting bigger every day. Lucy is learning so many fun tricks lately. She is adventurous, but cautious when learning her next trick. This past wkd it was learning how to step on something (aka Unca Unca's hand) and pull herself up onto furnture. Thanks Uncle Aa! She is so proud of herself though that I have to encourage her everytime she tries. Luc is also mastering getting in and out of her rocking chair on her own. In fact tonight she would get in and out, and once out she would let go while standing and applaude herself. So cute! Daddy got some great video of Lucy climbing up on the couch and sliding down, getting in and out of the rocking chair, walking and blowing kisses. Each new trick makes me so proud of my girl and how far she has come!

Mama is growing in the belly area. We reached a huge milestone last week, 29wks5days. My body is acting much better this pregnancy. We have less swelling and over all I feel better. I am in week 30 and each day is a blessing. I am not hoping to go early but everyday is one day closer to full term and I feel that we're prepared for whenever this babe decides to come or more likely my body says no more. It's good!

Life is certainly different this pregnancy. There is no time to sit and relax with a little girl as active and loveable as Luc. I wouldn't change it though, the sacrifice is worth it. I wish I were home more with her but A and I try to find a good balance between family and work. We make the most of the time we have together!

You know I do not like touching grass!
