34 Weeks

We had our 34 week checkup this afternoon. I am measuring 35 cm...right on target. My weight gain looks good, blood pressure and labs look good. I have had a little more swelling in my ankles lately, and had quite a few contractions last week, so the doctor told me I need to slow down a little bit and start taking it easy more. Baby was head down and we go back in two weeks.

Madi is busy as ever. This afternoon she was practicing climbing Grammy and Granddad Cone's stairs. She climbed them at least 3 times, and came down about 3/4 of the way on her own this afternoon. (Supervised closely of course).

She is braver some days than others with walking. This weekend, she just wanted to crawl, but today has been walking all over the place.

Madi also gave her cousin Aiden a hug today. We held Aiden up to Madi and she wrapped her arms around him and put her head on his shoulder. It was priceless. She did it three times, and then was mad when we took him away.

The countdown to her first birthday has started. Invitations have been sent out, and decorations have been purchased. It is hard to believe that she will be one in a couple of weeks. Wow.
