Connor was really moving and Austin didn't want totake his hand off my belly but he also didn't want to
stop eating his muffin!
My beautiful Mother's Day gift from AustinWe had a busy but great weekend. Saturday morning we were trying to get stuff done around the house and pulling out all of Austin's baby bins so we can rewash infant clothes and toys and all the other "stuff" we'll be needing in the next few weeks. Saturday evening we went to a friends surprise birthday party and Austin had a blast playing with all the kids. We had a few sharing problems but being a toddler, he's working on it:)
Sunday the boys made me breakfast, hash browns and sausage, and then we all went into Flint to do some shopping and have lunch. After Austin and I took our afternoon nap we had dinner and then Allen took Austin out to do some man things so I could have some time to myself. It was a wonderful Mother's Day. Austin made me a plate with his art work all over the surface. It is beautiful:)
The big news at our house is that Austin is sleeping in his own bed ALL NIGHT long! Yea! He has been in his own bed now for a little over a week. He usually wakes up once a night but it only takes us a couple minutes to get him back to sleep. I still have to help him get to sleep when he first goes down for the night but I usually just have to sit in the rocking chair while he puts himself to sleep. He is on his way to being a totally independent sleeper!
We've been pretty busy during the week lately. The Farmer's Market has opened in town so Austin and Mommy are always headed that way on our walks to investigate the goods, Austin has also started his once a week play group at the YMCA and he loves it, and we usually make a weekly stop at the library especially since they have been having special story hours lately. Thursday this week the annual Durand Railroad Days Festival starts in town and continues through Sunday. There will be tons to do in town, especially all things trains which Austin loves. Friday afternoon Austin and I will be headed to the parade by the highschool. Not to mention we'll be celebrating Allen's birthday on Sunday, he turns 32 on Monday next week.
I have my 34 week ob appointment this Wednesday and we have an ultrasound too because I am measuring 2 weeks bigger than I should be so they want to get a projected size and weight on Connor.
Austin has really been trying to sing songs and it sounds so cute! This morning I was trying to get some laundry done after breakfast and Austin was playing with his trucks when all of the sudden I hear him singing "Life is a Highway!" It is his favorite part in the Cars movie and there he was playing with his trucks and singing the entire first line of the song, "Life is a highway, I wanna ride it all night long." I wish I had gotten it on video, it was priceless:)
