We had a great weekend with Spencer's mom, Debbie, visiting us! She came last Wednesday, and sadly left us yesterday. It is always so much fun to have her around, and as a bonus- she left us with leftover homemade soup, chili, and other snacks as usual. We shopped, cooked, worked on the nursery, and just enjoyed her tremendously! Best mother in law ever :)
We went to my 29 week appointment on Friday and were able to see Parker in another ultrasound. I haven't seen him since our 20 week appointment, and it was so exciting to see his sweet face. It's amazing to me how big he is getting and he is looking more and more like a newborn. I've been feeling really extra-full lately, and for the last week have been very uncomfortable.
We did learn that I have what is called polyhydramnios, meaning more amniotic fluid than is "normal." It's nothing to be alarmed about right now, but just to watch. It made sense why I have been feeling larger than is normal, though! My uterus should be measuring 9cm right now above my belly button, but it is actually 12cm above it. No wonder I feel his feet in my ribs during his kick sessions!

There he is in 3D with his R arm by his face |
This is a pic of some of our best friends, Meredith & Colin and their brand new baby girl Madeline! She was born October 15, and is absolutely perfect. We visited them last week, and got to hold her. It was extremely sweet, and is such a reminder of what is coming to us very soon!
