Another Visit (slideshow)

Grammy and Papa, my dad and his wife, came and stayed with us this past weekend. It was a jam packed weekend because they had to get their Amelia fix in less than 36 and 48 hours! But they saw their second granddaughter and spent lots of time together. Here's a slideshow of their visit, plus some more. (If you can't see the slideshow, click on "view all images" and the slideshow will show up in a new browser window.)



Here's what's happening to baby this week:
Your womb was a warm and cozy environment, and it'll take time for your baby to adjust to the various sights, sounds, and sensations of life outside your body. You may not be able to detect much of a personality just yet, as your baby spends his time moving in and out of several different states of sleepiness, quiet alertness, and active alertness.
The only way your baby knows to communicate is by crying, but you can communicate with him through your voice and your touch. (Your baby can now recognize your voice and pick it out among others.)
Your baby probably loves to be held, caressed, kissed, stroked, massaged, and carried. He may even make an "ah" sound when he hears your voice or sees your face, and he'll be eager to find you in a crowd.

So far, Amelia has been all around town. She has seen the airport several times. She likes shopping at Target, Kohls and Fred Meyer. She likes to toil outside in the garden too. We'll see how much she likes being outside later on this week, as it's supposed to get uber hot outside.

Mommy is doing well. She seems to be walking and getting around better until yesterday. However, she thinks that the area is healing and that's why it's a little stiff and sore. So, she's having Daddy take Emmy for walks and doing the household chores. Other than that... she's been laying low.

Oh, and a big shout out for my g-friend... who just got her BFP and is due in February! Woo hoo! :) Told you we'd be pg at the same time... even if it was just for two days!
