A Bobby Update!

Preschool went pretty well this week! Tuesday Matt took Zane in the morning. I had to leave a little early for a meeting, so we are convinced that Zane thought he was staying home with his Daddy...so when it came time to go to preschool, he wasn't real thrilled. Matt said he whimpered a little bit, but when he went to pick him up he told Matt how much fun he had! Thursday was the same, he cried when I dropped him off, but as soon as I picked him up he was showing me the combine he drew and telling me he had fun! We'll get past the crying eventually...I hope!

It rained Wednesday and Thursday this week, so we didn't get much outside playing time. We're hoping to squeeze some more time in before the weather turns cold! It was hard to believe that it began feeling like fall temperatures overnight! We never knew from day to day whether to wear shorts or pants...I love fall but I guess I wasn't ready for the chilly weather yet!

We had a doctor appointment Wednesday. It was an ultrasound, glucose test, and checkup. The first thing we did was the ultrasound. If you remember from our last one, we were asked to come again for a follow up appointment to recheck the heart. The ultrasound technician could see all 4 chambers, but they weren't showing up well on the pictures, so my doctor ordered another ultrasound just to be on the safe side. It was so neat to be able to see Bobby again and make sure everything was okay! She found the heart right away and we saw 4 chambers! At 27 weeks, Bobby looks more like a baby and less like an alien! We saw a cute little face, chubby thighs, and s/he was showing off for us! We even saw praying hands and a fist again! Everything looked good, so we were thrilled! She said that she thinks this baby may be a little larger than Zane was...I hope not too much! Bobby currently weighs 2 lbs 7 oz. Here are a couple of pictures that we got, this one was a quick ultrasound since it wasn't our first, so we only got a few pictures.

Baby is looking at the camera...you can see the forehead, both eyes, and nose. Hands are in front of the mouth:

Here was our arm/fist shot again:Look at those chunky thighs already! (Thigh on left, foot on right)
This weekend we stayed with Matt's parents. They will be leaving for Europe for 10 days, so I think they were glad to be able to spend some time with Zane! They had a blast playing on the farm. Zane got to ride the 4-wheeler, tractor, and pull wagons around. He was in 7th Heaven!

Zane has really been into drawing and coloring lately! He actually wants others to draw/color and he wants to watch! Every once in awhile he'll help out, and he will definitely tell you where to color and/or not color! He had all of his grandparents coloring like crazy this weekend. I think they actually enjoyed it! I was able to capture my parents coloring with him today!

This is a smiley face picture Zane drew on our stairs. Pretty good huh?
Then he drew these three smiley faces. They are Papa, Gaga, and Zane!
Tonight we tried and tried to get a good video of him winking and saying "Doin' hot stuffs?" Here is the best we could get. You really have to see him do this in person. It's hilarious!

Have a fabulous week!
