Updates, updates, updates

Hello to everyone! I hope I didn't worry anyone with my MIA. Everything is just fine around here.

I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and am doing good! Emma was delivered at 35 weeks exactly, so I am so excited I have made it to this point. My doctor is checking me weekly for dilation. If I am dilated at all, I go on bedrest-not what I am wanting, but she is being very conservative with me. I love my doctor, she is so good and is right on board with my birth plan. We are still not ready at home for this baby-my hubby is being too slow for me :) All well, everything will get done eventually.

Emma is doing great. We had her birthday party at the end of July and it was great. However, it was the one cold day in July (it only made it up to 72 degrees that day!!), so the kids couldn't go swimming. Our house was jammed packed!! She is getting so big, such a little girl now. She is potty training and I think she is doing wonderfully with it! She is ready to meet Maddie, but I don't think she quite gets what that means...no more just her, mommy and daddy. I think she will be spending a lot of time at Grandma and Paw's house just so she can't get some "Emma Attention".

We got a new puppy this past weekend. Great timing, I know. This dog is just like our Beau that we lost last March. Her name is Gertie and she has so many traits of the DDB. I think she will be a wonderful addition to our family--plus her potty training has been going good too!

Well, just wanted to get a quick shout-out out there so you all know things are good. Blogger is still messing up on me quite a bit, but I will try to post as much as possible--plus I will get pictures on eventually!!
