33 week update

With such a busy spring (which included the husband and I taking a romantic weekend getaway to Chicago, me taking a 3 credit class, Chloe moving into her own big girl room, and lots of play time indoors and outdoors) I haven't had time to update the blog. I'm officially on Spring Break - thank you, God!!! Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy my job, but this break is a very needed one for both the kids and the teachers.
Update on the baby: At my 28 week appointment, along with the glucose tolerance test (everything came back clear!), I had my follow-up ultrasound to ensure the placenta was positioned in the right place. The tech measured and said it was 8 cm away from the opening of the cervix which is perfectly fine for delivery! I was so relieved!!! I also had her double check to make sure the baby is a girl and yes, all girl parts! We have a named picked out but you'll have to wait until she's born to know what it is :) After a blood draw, they discovered my iron count was too low so I have to take an iron supplement everyday in addition to my prenatal vitamins. This has helped my energy levels tremendously! Last Wednesday I had another appointment and everything continues to develop on target. Baby is very active (around 5:30 every morning I'm awoken by kicks and flips and the activity continues throughout the day) and she is already very schedule-oriented, much like her daddy.
Update on the toddler: Chloe is just the sweetest little toddler I've ever met! She's so caring and loving and she makes us laugh every day. I'm so lucky to be her mommy!! We have started potty training and that was going well until last weekend when we hit a bump: she refused to even sit on the potty. She does really well if we let her run around without any bottoms on and she will run to the potty to do her thing. She's very good at using the potty until we put underwear on - then she thinks it's like a diaper. We're still working on that. She recently moved into her brand new big girl room. Daddy moved his office downstairs and Chloe moved into what was his office. We (okay, not me, but Will) painted the walls pink and found green room darkening curtains from Target. Will and our friend, Andy, carried a closet/wardrobe up from the spare bedroom for Chloe to use and I have moved almost all of her clothes, books and toys to her new room. It's very cute and girly and we have a few finishing touches to put in there. I'll post some pics when I upload them from the camera.
We are just enjoying life and spring and playing outside and going for walks and I'm enjoying pregnancy and watching our new little one grow. She will be here soon and we are all getting very excited to meet her!
