Improntu Photo Shoot at 26 Weeks Pregnant!

As seen from previous posts, I am taking weekly photos of the fruit or vegetable that What to Expect or Baby Bump claim is the size the baby in my belly for that particular week!  Usually, getting the photo consists of Barrett (not excited to be the designated photographer for these weekly shots) taking about 30 pictures in 2 minutes or less and hoping I am satisfied with one! I move the fruit around quickly, turn to show more or less belly, and then it's over! The boys are usually around watching this, and I explain that the baby in my belly is about the size of whatever I am holding! 

I would never bore you with the almost identical pictures I get taken every week- I just pick one, add the text saying which week it is, and move on! 

Well, this week, LJ really wanted (and insisted) in being in the pictures with me! It was really cute! So here are all the pictures from that 5 (lasted a little longer than usual!) minutes!
 When he ran to get Evan, B took a few of just me and the eggplant! 
 They're back!




 Boys playing right in front of me- out of picture somehow!
 LJ said, "MOM, don't forget me!" Sorry LJ!! 

 "That's how big the baby is!???" 

 Evan's back- he wants to hold the baby-size eggplant too!! 
 "CHEEESE!!" 

This one was LJ's favorite (he asked to see the pictures as soon as we were done) because he is holding my hair! I don't know why that makes him happy, but that's what he said! 

 And the picture that will probably make the collage:

LJ Swimming

LJ has made some big improvements in his swimming these last few weeks.  We are so excited and proud of him. He absolutely loves swimming and being in the water- we have probably been swimming at least 5 days a week. 2 weeks ago... http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=ZZbP_UhrCnE And this weekend...  Also, at the end he asks if he can go pee off the balcony! Haha! Another thing he has gotten very good at! And while this may sound surprising, we are very proud of this too because he successfully pees most days (hey, have to start somewhere, right!?)! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S80hmdL1_2Q&feature=em-upload_owner

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

LJ Loses his first Teeth!

Image
LJ's two bottom teeth were definitely loose. He had been wiggling them for MONTHS and insisting they were about to come out! While we were in El Paso in June, one of them got really loose, and he even begged us to just pull it out or take him to a dentist!! Hah!!  And I actually tried, but I couldn't get a good grip on it. Then when we looked up ways to pull teeth (like the well known string on a door handle), the overwhelming recommendation was NOT to do it!! Apparently this could cause a tooth to come out too soon and lead to infection! Who knew! So he had to wait!!  That said, he tooth was getting so loose, it was leaning sideways in his mouth!! It almost looked like it had come out sometimes because it wasn't sitting so funny! Then on July 3, as I was brushing his teeth before bed (sometimes I make him let me do it so I can be sure they are getting a good brushing), I literally brushed his tooth sideways!! Ah!!! It looked crazy, and he said it was hurting h...
