We got together with our friends at Darrell and Lindsey's house. I maintained my bedrest by plopping myself on the couch all night. Here's a pic of the current preggos...Julie (due with a boy March 23), Lindsey (due with a girl March 20) and me
A recap of the kids from last year's Halloween (Ella, Layla, Jonathan and Alden)...
And this year...Ella, Layla and Jonathan (Alden couldn't make it and Ava came later). No one was too enthuised about the picture...
The girls are more interested in Jonatan's snack...

Sunday we went to both grandparents to show them her costume.
Me and me kiddos...too bad Elv looked away--normally he's the easy one to get to look!

Our family...an angel, a devil, a bat and an unhappy monkey...
She already had her costume off when I remembered to get one with Grampy and Gigi...
Little Monkey trying to steal the race car driver's hat (too bad her hands were covered up so she had a hard time grabbing things:D)...

I had one with Aunt Rachael that I'll have to add later.
This was from a few weeks ago when I tried her costume on. I thought it was kind of funny to see a monkey with a gun:-) (don't worry, it's a toy gun!)
This was her owie from the other week. She fell into a wall or something and then kept breaking the scab open so it needed a bandaid. She has still been loving Elmo and even enjoys sharing her pipe with him. She gives her pipe and sippy cups to her dolls too, but their mouths don't hold them quite as well as Elmo's:-).
I am 27 weeks today! Yea!! I'm really thankful to have made it this far! And to have made it through almost 2 weeks of partial bedrest already. I'm going a bit crazy, but I'll do whatever is needed to keep RV safe and healthy. I'm really hoping that RV stays in for a long time yet, but I'm really ready to be done with this pregnancy! I'm still feeling nauseaus/puking so I'm beginning to think that might not ever go away. My contractions haven't been that bad though. I don't think I get near as many as I did with Layla--with her they were very consistant I think starting around 27 weeks. Here I am at 27 weeks in my comfy bedrest clothes:-) (don't mind Layla's outfit--that's how she came home dressed from Grandma's the other day:D).

A little while ago I tried to save money by switching her to Target Brand diapers...unfortunately they gave her diaper rash, so now we're back to Pampers. She was excited about the switch back as she loves that Elmo is on her diaper. She never used to notice that until she learned who Elmo was. She'll now sometimes point to her diaper (even through her clothes) and say "Melmo" to show her enthusiasm towards Elmo. She loved pointing when she first started wearing Elmo diapers again, but that's kind of wearing off now.
She's normally really good about only going in the cupboards she's allowed in (the Tuppaware one), but a few weeks ago she saw me unloading the groceries and saw that I put her cookies on a shelf she could reach so apparently she had no restraint for the yummy cookies. I was in the basement doing laundry and this is what I found upon my return upstairs...
I know I say this every month, but I really can't believe how fast the time goes! She is now 17 months! She is really into saying "no no" to things and can be quite bossy telling Elvis "no no":-). She likes to hand me things she's not allowed to have (like remotes and cell phones) and say "no no?" as she hands it to me. Yeah, she shouldn't be picking them up in the first place, but at least she knows it's naughty. The problem is when I'm not in the room that she knows all too well how to turn the tv on or change the channel. With somethings she's been getting naughtier recently and she has quite the temper! I've been doing time outs and she gets to just sit there until the timer goes off, but I'm not sure she really think they're that bad. With me laying around a lot she's been really into wanting to be by me a lot instead of playing nicely on her own. She may have a rude awakening when RV comes:-).

Here I am at I think about 29 weeks last time with strict bedrest apparel (and wet hair and no makeup). I think I'm carrying different this time. I know that for sure I'm bigger:(.

Your little Layla has the tiniest legs! I love it! And yes, you do look like you are carrying differently--but equally as cute!
Um, I'm pretty sure the girls weren't looking at J's snack...they think he's cute:) And I agree, you are carrying different. Interesting:)
Yeah, her legs her little--she certainly doesn't get that from her momma! She'll be a lucky girl if she keeps those thighs the rest of her life!
Haha, I think they're looking at J and the cracker:-). I think I'm fatter this time:-). Hopefully that means he's a big boy--well, if he comes early, hopefully he's a big boy! If he's FT, he can be normal size:-).
awe, it's good to hear how you and yours are doing. Layla is getting so big!!
