Week 22 (In Utero): Getting Down to Business

Well, now that we are about halfway through with this pregnancy, Chris and I have started to get things in order to make way for Ms. Chloe's arrival.

We found a really cute furniture set that works really well for the room's set up. We decided on an Expresso color (brown-black furniture) with a set that has a corner bookcase, crib and dresser.

We also took some time to register at Babies R'Us and Pottery Barn for the various girly themed items for her room. We are getting a cute floral bedding set from Pottery Barn Kids.

My dad also came over to take the guest room furniture, which he had actually bought for my brother about 8 years ago. At least it stays in the family. I am going to miss our guest room though.

Week 20 (In Utero): Sonogram and Update

Well Ms. Chloe is certainly making the most of her time inside Mommy-the-incubator. Her brother has really paved the way and stretched my womb, making it easy to grow larger than her brother at this same point in time. Luckily my weight gain has been a modest 6 1/2 pounds, but Ms. Chloe is already 12 ounces! She is in the 59th Percentile for her weight, where as Marshall was in the 35th. Ms. Chloe is also a little giant! She is about 9.5 inches long and is in the 69th percentile for her height. Again, Chris and I are still scratching our heads that our children are so tall! The purpose of the sonogram was to do the standard testing for any abnormalities of the babies organs or the Mommy parts. Both of us looked fine and healthy. Chris and I feel so excited and blessed that Chloe is coming into this world so healthy.
