Well, as many of you know, the Turners are expecting another baby! I haven't wanted to post anything until now because there have been a few minor complications with this pregnancy but I couldn't resist posting this photo of Pearl kissing my belly so I guess the cat's out of the bag now!
We are due July 14th and we are expecting a BOY! I am so excited for Pearl to have a baby brother. She doesn't really understand what's going on though. When Morgan points to my belly and asks, "What's in there?" Pearl says, "Baby!" but other than that she is blissfully ignorant to the fact that we're going to have another little munchkin soon.
This pregnancy has been a bit tougher than the first. I was much more nauseous and tired this time around and the doctors found a small bleed so I wasn't allowed to exercise for the first few months so I've gained a bit more weight than I did with Pearl. Fortunately, the bleed healed itself and the nausea went away so things are going better.
I'm 22 weeks pregnant at this point. We had our anatomical ultrasound a few weeks ago and our little boy is growing at a good rate and everything looks good, but they did discover that my placenta is low so I have to go for an additional ultrasound at 28 weeks to see if it's migrated back up to where it's supposed to be (which the doctor assured me is what typically happens).
We have been busy working on the house, trying to get as much done now while I still have some energy. It's been fun to think of new nursery themes and we're finally putting the finishing touches on Pearl's room. Someday we might even get to our own bedroom, but that keeps going further and further down the list...
So that's all for now. Here's a picture of Pearl after she put on her snow boot all by herself (it was on the wrong foot, but I was still impressed):
And here's a photo of Pearl after a delicious bowl of mac 'n cheese last weekend:
Have a good weekend!
Love,
Jill
