Week 19

I can feel Jingle move on a daily basis now - very reassuring :)
Princess Genna - she insists on the bun too - so she looks like Cinderella, and because it helps the crown stay in place!

Her new baby carrier! Fun

It rained a LOT last week!
Good excuse to get the rain gear out
She had a great time
Back to sunny this weekend though, Dadda's helper watering the orange tree :)
Lots of dancing this morning too

Week 17

I've had a cold for a few days now so I'm not up for a bump photo this week.(oh cold medicine how I long for you!! won't dare put Jingle at risk though, sigh)
There is some Jingle news though:
Murray felt the baby move for the first time at 16 weeks 6 days! That was exciting :) Jingle was bumping around quite a bit, I guess it was that chocolate I had after dinner!
I feel movement every day now as well, which is very reassuring :)
Today at my ob appointment Genna got to hear Jingle's heartbeat - she was THRILLED!
She did tell me earlier this week though that when Jingle is born, he will go home with Helen. I said no Genna, Jingle will live at our house. She insisted that is NOT the case! I dropped it, I think she'll figure it out once we set up the crib:)
We tried to get a photo of her in her Minnesota Vikings cheerleader outfit this weekend - but it's hard because she's always on the move!
I like this hair tie!!!
And some random videos of her showing me the ballet positions. She saw it on a tv show once and remembered (kind of) - cute though :)

And of course - lights off with the spotlight (flashlight!)
For a swim this weekend she put on her swimming cap so the goggles wouldn't catch on her hair - we thought it looked SO cute!

I'm ready to swim Dadda!

Week 16


Week 16 - Jingle is the size of an avocado

This past weekend we went to Genna's friend Louisa's house

To celebrate her little sister Rosie's second birthday

Birthday girl with Daddy

Opening presents - Barry, Rosie, Rita & Louisa (& Genna peeking in)
Having a snack before lunch with the girls :)
And a few videos from swimming in our pool on Sunday. She has gained SO much confidence this summer!! This week at swimming they worked on under water swimming a bit more - you can tell!  

 And the Genna story of the week.
She LOVES Katy Perry's song 'Roar.' We were listening to it on the way home one day. When we got home Dadda was on the phone. He said 'Hi Genna, guess who is on the phone.' She replied excitedly 'Katy Perry?!?!' Nanna laughed on the other end of the phone - ha ha cute.
