I had my 11-week doc appointment yesterday. I tell you, this kiddo is already a trouble-maker - from making me sick to not wanting to give us a heartbeat at the appointment yesterday. After searching for a good 5-10 minutes with the dopplar, the doc (and I love the one I saw yesterday) sent me down the hall for a quick look inside and there was the little peanut doing flips and had a heartrate of 180! I tell you, I don't know if this one will be as laid back as Nate!
We don't have another appointment for 5 more weeks (election week) - so I am sure things will change quite a bit between now and then.
Last weekend Nate and I met up with some friends in Iowa City area for lunch and playtime at a playground. It was a lot of fun and we were both wiped out by the time we left (well, he got to sleep on the way home). Mommy didn't get my nap because our new fridge came in and we installed that and now I have my ice in the door and Mark doesn't have to listen to me whine about that anymore!
This weekend we are looking forward to a Thornburg family get-together in Keosauqua. Nate has been practicing all of his cousin/aunt/uncle names. When I ask him to say Uncle Arlin, he just looks at me like I am nuts. Aunt Kim, on the other hand, is a bit easier. He is mastering Grandma too, so that will be cool for everyone to hear. He has been saying Papa for a while now - can't figure out why. Could it be because Papa spoils him rotten? Nah. Couldn't be that!
Also this weekend is the start of hunting season. Guess that means we will see less of Daddy on the weekends until he brings home his trophy deer. With the 1/2 cow we are getting and another deer, our freezer will be nicely packed for the winter/spring/summer. That will be great with another baby on the way and a toddler that likes to eat!
This month is shaping up to be pretty busy. We got parties, pumpkin patches, haunted trail walks, and so much to attend. Should be fun and tiring. We love that stuff!
We hope the fall proves to be another great time of year for all of you. We will update with photos from this weekend as soon as we can.
