Big Sis!!!

Claire loves being a big sister to Oliver. She is becoming quite the little helper too! Today, he started crying and I couldn't get to him right away so she was giving him his binkie and patting him on the back to try to comfort him!! She also can't wait until he can take a bath with her. I stuck his feet in while she was getting hers the other day and she kept signing for more. Here are a few pics of them together!

Quick Update!

Just wanted to post a few pictures that would give you a better idea of what Oliver really looks like. More later...

9 lbs .9 oz.

20 inches long

We are all doing well and home now. I will post more later, but I had a sec while both kids were sleeping and wanted to show off our new little guy. More later...

Are we ready?!?!?!?!?

Well, we are as ready as we are going to be to meet the newest addition to our family!! We are both getting really excited to meet this little guy and find out what he looks like. Friday is the big day!! My surgery should start around 9 AM. When I saw the doc yesterday he is pretty sure our little man is still breech, we will find out for sure on Friday I guess. I think Ryan is planning on posting some pics soon after the birth, so check back soon. This past weekend, being Claire's last as an only child, we decided to take her to do something fun (since it will probably be awhile before we get out of the house again)!! We went to COSI in Columbus. She had a blast!! We spent about and hour and a half in the little kid zone. Then we ate lunch and explored the ocean exhibit. That is about as far as she made it before she crashed. Ryan and I looked around a little bit more, but then we headed for the State Fair (Ryan's idea). It was hot and crowded and I did not enjoy it very much, but that probably had something to do with being nine months pregnant!! Here are pics of our COSI adventure!

COSI, here I come...

They better be ready for me!! Kid Zone...Yay!!

Down the slide!!

Playin' in the balls with daddy!!

Water play area...what fun!!!

All wet from the water, what can I do now???

Trying to catch the water that was squirting out of the ground!! It was a fun and exhausting day!! Stay tuned for updates and keep me and the baby in your thoughts and prayers for a safe surgery!!!
