CIRCUS!!!

We are VERY lucky to have friends with connections :) Addies Dada works for the railroad...the very same railroad in which the Ringling Bros Circus uses to transport the animals from city to city, so he was able to score us some AWESOME tickets. Elias LOVED it, especially all of the animals which included his favorite, the Elephant. Thanks so much Ryan!!!

How close our seats were back

anticipation

sitting with Dada

sitting like a big boy

E LOVED the elephants...and we he woke up the next day he kept telling us he wanted to go back to the circus to see the Elephants.

I was messing with my camera settings and missed him clapping....soooo cute.

1st Push-Up Pop

31 Weeks

We are 3 weeks into the Third Trimester.

 I had my 31 week appointment or if you want to get technical, 30wks 6 days. We got a little sneak peek at our little 2.0 and even got a cool 3d/4d pic just like we did with Elias. Appt went really well for both baby and Momma. My blood pressure is good and his heart rate is awesome. I have only gained 4lbs so far so they were a little concerned about that but baby seems to be measuring right on track. 

Our adorable little Baby Boy :)

I am sooooo in love already

He was asleep the whole time

cute little profile

showing off his guns

The boy has a TON of hair. I tried labeling as best as I could to show you just how much he has. This is looking at the back of his head.

Baby Boy looks IDENTICAL to his Big Brother. This was Elias's 3d/4d ultrasound. Elias is on the left, 2.0 is on the right.

Both boys look EXACTLY like their Dada. This was Elias on the day he was born laying next to a picture of Brendon on the day he was born.

The Momma at 30wks 6days.

I was MUCH bigger with Elias than I am with 2.0, prob from chasing a toddler around :) 2.0 is on the left, Elias is on the right.

A little fun to know info on our little 2.0.....

He is as big as a squash

Baby’s energy is surging, thanks to the formation of white fat deposits beneath the skin. (Have those kicks and jabs to the ribs tipped you off yet?) Baby is also settling into sleep and waking cycles, though -- as you’ve also probably noticed -- they don’t necessarily coincide with your own. Also this month, all five senses are finally functional, and the brain and nervous system are going through major developments.

Brush Brush Brush Your Teeth

Elias had his 2nd dentist appt back in December, and he was told by Dr. M that he has picture perfect teeth.  Probably partly to his good brushing habits :)

All Clean :)

playing peek a boo with himself :)

Elias is most definitely Brendons Mini-Me...Right down to the front of hair cowlick
