26 Weeks!

Scooter and I are doing well. We had an appointment last week to check on the cord and it is still a marginal cord insertion and not a velamentous cord insertion, which is great news. They will continue to monitor us to be certain that it doesn't turn into this. We also went to a specialist and it was determined that we will have a C-Section. I'm of course a little nervous about this, but as it's the best case scenario for both me and Scooter so this is what we will be doing. They are planning on scheduling our C-Section the week of August 18th, so he will come at least a week early (keeping my fingers crossed that it's not before then). 

Scooter is still big, but not as big as he was measuring the last month that we were in. He is in the 90th percentile for size and measuring a week ahead of where we actually are. 

I'm just a few weeks away from the third trimester, but I'm already feeling it. I'm getting tired and have to sit down and rest after I've been on my feet for a bit. I also can't eat as much in one sitting and need to eat smaller and more meals throughout the day. I absolutely love sparkling water and can't get enough. This entire pregnancy I could eat french fries for every meal if I'd let myself. I try to limit it to once a week at the most :)

L, Cory and I were playing princess ballerina last night and took some silly pictures (which of course L insisted on). 

 I'm going to eat you up (she loves to say this from one of her favorites, "Where the Wild Things Are")

 Hugs for brother

 I'm not sure what she was doing?

 This big sister is getting excited about being a big sister!

In case you were wondering about all the boxes in the living room, those are the kitchen cabinets for the basement renovation... We bought a house for L, and are renovating for Scooter :)

Here are a few pictures from when I was pregnant with L at 26 weeks!
