Ups and Downs, Week 18


So this week was very eventful... Becca was in town all week which was very exciting.  We had a great time together and Lola was so sad when I had to take her back to the airport today, she loved having her godmother in town to play with!  

My sciatic has been acting up which has made the day to day a little more difficult picking up Lola and having the energy to run around.  I am hoping that i will grow out of it eventually, since I did when I was pregnant with Lola. 

On a sad note, my Grandma passed away this Thursday from a long battle with cancer.  She was an amazingly inspirational woman that spent her life devoted to taking care of her family.  I can only hope that I can come close to being as loving a mother, grandmother, and great grandmother as she was.  I will be heading to California this Sunday for the funeral and to spend time with my dad and family.

Love to all of you, 

Jennifer, Daniel, and Lola

16 weeks!

From the lovely picture that I took of myself with the computer, you can clearly see that the baby belly is now growing!  Wow, that makes it a reality.  I am 16 weeks now and we set our appointment for September 3rd to have our big ultrasound and find out the sex of the baby.  
We are really excited and I can not wait to find out so we can be able to tell Lola if she is going to have a baby brother or sister.

It is back to the normal schedule now that Daniel is back to work...meaning playgroups and the such for Lola and I.  We will see how much I grow by next week, it seems to be coming on fast and the half way point is almost here...scary :)

Love, 
Daniel, Jennifer, and Lola
