Busy week...but Selah still looks good!

It is hard to believe that it will be the 1st of August tomorrow! It has been a busy year for us, with 2 moves, an internship and a pregnancy, and, of course, a separation from active duty! I am not sure whether to be glad it’s almost over, or sad that another year is gone. I am both I suppose. Here is a quick recap of this past week…

Noah, rolling UP the ramp at Mommy and Me...I was impressed that he could!

(I doubt that I could, even if you subtracted the belly!)

Jumping off the "towers."

Thankfully he still wants a hand to hold.

Unfortunately, he now believes that everything is a tower-like the couch, kitchen chair and the bunk bed-though he has yet to actually jump from the bunk bed. Thank GOD!

Peek a boo!



Noah wants to go to Mommy and Me everyday! Unfortunately, there are only 2 more classes (only 4 total), and then we can try to start up again after school starts, but with Selah, it may have to be Daddy and Me! Which would probably be more fun anyway!


Fun with Dad- the blur is Noah being thrown onto the couch cushions covered in a blanket. And I wonder where my children get their great ideas....
It was even scarier in person!
But he did survive.
This is Ohio Stadium, where the Buckeyes play.
Aunt Pat sent a stadium bundt pan, and it spawned into a whole day of Buckeyes fanaticism...
The blimp view, Jonah was the director here.
Although it is hard to tell, there are lights, bleachers, uprights, players and even the announcer booth!
And he's ready for bed in his Buckeyes pajamas and his new Buckeyes socks, also courtesy Aunt Pat.
Thankfully Bryan was able to convince him to take all that off to actually sleep-it is VERY warm upstairs and he's on the top bunk!
Do you like the posing?
Here is Selah, 35 weeks. No 3D pictures this time.
The top one is of her eating her hand...do you think she could be hungry?
My ultrasound was fine. Doppler was 58-60, still below the 62. So they said it was good. And my fluid was lower (16), but they only measured 3 quadrants instead of 4, so... who knows, I am not at all concerned about the fluid, so I don't really care. There was someone in school to be a tech who did the "pictures" at the end of the ultrasound while the tech went to confer with the doctor. She spent most of that time talking, and she is not a multitasker apparently. So, alas, we haven't any great shots of Selah, but she'll be here soon, and then we can get some real ones!
The boys got spoiled by Tammy (Bryan's partner's wife) while I went to my appointment... alone! I truly do not know who had more fun, the boys or Tammy. It was the first time I have ever left Noah with anyone other than Bryan and he didn't cry! (Thankfully, since Selah will be here soon! I have been a bit apprehensive about the whole situation.) They made play dough and painted posters and had a picnic-I am really slacking here!

Bryan and the kids look like they play the same games that Chris and the kids do. Just yesterday Chris taught them that they can go down the stairs in the laundry basket. Fun stuff!
Did you get my email?
