Two more weeks have gone by and we are still waiting for our new arrival. Cheri is just over 35 weeks pregnant now and is still doing relatively well. We had another ultrasound appointment last week and the doctors estimate that the baby is just over nine pounds already! It is hard to believe the new baby could easily be over twice Adaline's birth size by the time it is born. This of course is all pretty nerve wracking, and Cheri continues to have contractions at various intervals all of the time. The doctor wants us to keep hanging on as long as possible to give the new baby as much time to develop as possible and said that by the time the baby is born it could weigh in the high 10's. None of this helps Cheri feel any more comfortable trying to sleep at night or get around during the day. It is hard sometimes to stay patient and just wait for the baby to let us know when it is ready.
Adaline is pretty much oblivious to our stress level and continues to grow mentally and physically every day. She is saying "uh-oh" pretty regularly and seems to be trying to work on other words too.
Adaline really likes it when we sing to her and has been working on the motions for Itsy Bitsy Spider, If You're Happy and You Know It, and Row, Row, Row Your Boat.
Adaline seems to finally be feeling better after a double ear infection diagnosis and a quick round of antibiotics. We were able to get out and enjoy the great weather last weekend at Adaline's favorite place - the park.
Life for the Brown's rolls on and we will just keep waiting, watching, and praying. Who know what the next update will bring...
