Last couple of weeks :)

Daddy and Andrew building in the sand

Andrew loves to chase seagulls! He ran around chasing them for a long time.

Happy 26th birthday!

Went to a gymboree music class. Andrew was more interested in climbing on the instruments, haha

Andrew loves all the baby stuff we are getting out and ready for the baby.

Motorcycle driving at the Children's Museum

Key Biscayne park is really fun. It is full of things he can climb on.

 

 

We let Andrew stay up and watch part of the superbowl with us. He clapped for about 20 minutes straight, it was so funny! He just ran around clapping and spinning in circles while the game was on. He apparently really likes football!

Videos of Andrew laughing at Kitty's on you tube, haha

The past couple of weeks have felt really long. It is hard to wait patiently for the baby to come! I ready to have her already. I am 38 weeks now but haven't had any more contractions. I feel like she will never come. My mom is coming on Tuesday so I am really excited to have her here! Andrew is exhausting me. We have tried every indoor activity I can think of and then we still have to go out a lot. His teeth are just really hurting him right now. I think almost all of them have poked through, he still has a few more so hopefully he gets happier soon. I am going to count his first word as boo. He puts a hat over his face and then when he takes it off he says "boo". It's really cute :) His repertoire of words now includes meow, moo, boo, (kitty, splash, and brush are said but not pronounced very well yet).

Indoor play 2

Andrew likes putting ping pong balls in the can :) They make a nice loud sound

Made our own tool set box for him to hammer on

Andrew likes to put the mail in the box. We do this for about 30 minutes. It's great!

Moved his mattress into the living room for him to jump on :) He sure loves to jump!

Doctor visit

 

Haven't been able to get a good picture of her becuase she is sitting so slow in my pelvis. Her face is pretty smashed up against me but at least you can see part of her :) 

The last ultrasound went very well. Evelynn has grown to the 33rd percentile so they won't have to deliver her early anymore which is great! She is just a little small but no major problems which is a big blessing. She is moving around a ton and is happy in there. I have been eating protein like crazy so maybe that helped a little for her growth. The doctor said she doesn't like to induce so it won't be like my last birth with Andrew at 39 weeks. So we will see when she decides to come. Though I am a little scared because my birth with Andrew went so fast I am worried that if my water breaks somewhere I am just going to have a baby in the middle of the store or something!

Indoor play

 Andrew loves putting the little counter chips into a bucket with a slot on top. He sat and did this for at least 30 minutes. They are really small though so I have to watch him carefully so he doesn't put them in his mouth. I couldn't find any of the big poker chips.

 

 

 We did an indoor tent day. I piled up books and different activities for Andrew to do in the tent. He just likes snuggling on the blankets and looking out the windows.

 Another slot activity. I like this one better because he can't choke on bag clips.

 Oatmeal mess time. I hide little toy bugs in the oatmeal and Andrew likes to dig them out with a spoon.

 Wooden shape sorter we got with Nanna's Christmas money. He can't quite do the squares or triangles but the circles work well.

 I got sticky contact paper and we made a collage from my cooking magazine

 Andrew built this tower all by himself. I couldn't believe how high he got it! For his development milestone he is supposed to be able to stack 3 so he is doing really good at that one! I don't have any real blocks so we are using the thanksgiving decoration blocks but they work :)

 Andrew was more interested in the sliding eraser than drawing on the magnetic board.

 Andrew's favorite new game is magnetic fishing. The puzzle has fish with magnets on top so he can fish them off. He is really good at it! Though he likes to fling around the fishing rod which can be dangerous at high speeds.

 Andrew is getting better at coloring and not eating the crayons. I still have to take them away sometimes but for the most part he is pretty good about it.

I tape the paper to the kitchen floor for coloring and waterpainting. The painting is messy but he really likes it.
