Week 29 & 30 Update

Whew! The past few weeks have flown by! I have had several projects due and exams to wrap up my LAST SEMESTER of grad school. Ever! Needless to say, I'm pretty excited about my upcoming graduation (and so is George!) Things are starting to calm down a little bit and we were able to go to Lawton this weekend to visit family for Easter.

Yesterday we celebrated Easter as a family and had a great time hunting eggs with our four nephews.  Although it was a little rainy, it didn't slow them down! Tyler, Liam, Lincoln and Stran seemed to have a great time searching for eggs, and it was a lot of fun to watch.

Lincoln and Stran all 'egged' out!

After the egg hunt in Grandpa Dan's barn, we headed over to the Marple house for a family cookout.  We got to play with the boys and Liam kept pointing at my belly saying, "You have baby?" Apparently he has been asking a lot of people this question.  Then, when they say no, he says, "My Mimi has baby in her tummy!" How cute!  He also told me he has a baby in his tummy last night so we will have to see about that - ha!

Baby Horton is doing extremely well.  She is very active and is exploring my ribs on a daily basis now.  Today we had a family 4D ultrasound before we left Lawton and it was amazing.  We caught her sucking her thumb, playing with her feet, and relaxing with her hand behind her head.  We even got to see her hair!  I didn't realize you could tell if they had hair or not in the womb, but she definitely does!  It was a neat experience to share with our family - everyone got to see her up close and in person.  At first, she wasn't cooperating very well and kept hiding her face.  The technician had me go to the restroom to see if it helped, and that seemed to do the trick.  When I came back we got lots of great photos of her.

After the ultrasound, we rushed out of town to get home in time for our afternoon appointment with Dr. Henry - but not without stopping at Wayne's Drive Inn first! :)  Things went well with the check-up.  Dr. Henry said everything looks great and is progressing the way it should.  We are going to start going in every two weeks from this point forward.  He also gave us information on childbirth classes here in Stillwater.

30 Weeks and feeling great!

Last but not least, the house is ALMOST DONE!!!  We have the closet and vanity installation scheduled and have been able to move our furniture back downstairs.  It feels so good to be on the final stretch of house projects.  All that we have left is to order the vanity top, have plumbing fixtures hooked up and carpet the stairs.  Woohoo!  :)  We will post pics this week after all the woodwork is installed.  

Have a great week!

Love: George, Megan & Baby H!
