11 weeks

I have not posted in a while - and I have not posted many pictures. Honestly I have been slacking in the picture department - I think I have taken like 20 pictures in the last month which is unheard of in our household! I don't know what has gotten into me.

Isabella is getting big! She is able to do a lot of things on her own now that she amazes me. She goes to the potty before her bath time in her big girl potty but she does not go any other time. Tomorrow is her 18 month appointment and I am super excited to see where she is on her weight and height! I think she has sprouted like 4 inches since last time (probably not but it feels like she has grown so fast!) She barely eats any more - I could put like 20 things in front of her and she will take 1 bite from about 5 of them! She is doing AMAZING sleeping in her own room! It is amazing we had not done it before - she sleeps on average 10 hours a night and hardly ever wakes up! That gives mama and daddy sound sleep which is nice.

So an update on little peanut Palmer (you know the one in my belly). Last week, Sam and I got to hear the heartbeat which was SUCH a relief! I was super excited when we heard that. The heartbeat is going at 160 beats/minute which Dr. Saunders said is really good at this time. I have gained about 2 pounds based on their scales. I figured I can report my weight gain right now - in a few months it might be top secret how much I have gained. I have had LOTS of people come up to me and say I am starting to show...which now I totally believe it. I am going to have to go shopping soon to find jeans that fit! Last time I was halfway through my pregnancy before I had to do that! Please say other second time moms have been in the same situation - or am I just becoming a fatty? Hahaha. We go back in 4 weeks at which time we will set up my shots - yep those start in about 6 weeks! Should be interesting.

Well, Hopefully soon I will have some really cute pictures of Isabella - she is always doing super cute stuff - it is just me who has been slacking in capturing them on film!
