We have been super busy preparing for this baby, having fun with Rilyn, buying a house (yep finally got one), and just living life!
Rilyn is getting 2 more teeth and pretty miserable. She has been pretty cranky in the afternoons and we realized today that she has 2 more poking through. She napped for almost 4 hours today (2 separate naps) and when awake was pretty unhappy. Poor thing that is 6 teeth in 1 month!
We had our 37 week appointment today, and everything looks good. The baby's heart rate was 150, which is actually higher than Rilyn's was at this time so I'm thinking it's a girl :) I was also GBS negative. GBS is a type of bacteria that most people have at some point in their lives, and doesn't harm adults; however, if a woman is positive when she delivers it can pass to the baby and cause an infection in the newborn. I was positive with Rilyn and only had 1 dose of the recommended 2 because we waited too long to get to the birth center. She was fine obviously but super pumped we don't have to worry about it this time around. Yea for a daily probiotic!
We finally found and had an offer accepted on a house. It is in Larkspur, which is about 40 miles south of Denver. It's on almost a half an acre and is on a dead end road, which backs up to private property so on one side and out front it's just forest. Driving up there last week we actually saw a brown bear in our neighbor's yard! The house needs a lot of work to make it our own, but has a lot of potential and we are excited to live in a town with a population of just around 200 and have some space to call our own!
Other than that not much has been going on! Here are some pictures of cute little Rilyn...just because :)

Woo hoo! Glad for the healthy heart rate and no bacteria. So no more thoughts that it's a boy huh?? I think a girl too :)
ReplyDeleteThe HOUSE!!! We are still so pumped for you guys. I hope you get to see more bears-from a distance.
Rilyn looks like a troublemaker with her foot through the crib. Love her. Wishing there were some pictures of Porter in this post though...
Carly - I will work on some Porter pictures...we definitely don't take as many dog pictures now that there is a kiddo to take pictures of but I understand you probably miss seeing that studly dog!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the house! Do you have any pictures?
ReplyDeleteDiana - Thanks! We went under contract today so I guess it is official!! There were not many pictures on-line but next time we are out at the house I will definitely take some pictures and share!
