A sweet message to Keegan from his friends: http://nvwitteandkids.blogspot.com/2009/12/dear-keegan.html.

37 Weeks: Belly Pic

And just for comparison, here I was at 37 weeks with Keegan. It's hard to believe but I carried him even higher than this little girl.

Children's Museum

One of the best gifts that Keegan for his first birthday was a membership to the Children's Museum. We have used it so many times this year. It is so great to be able to go and if it is too busy, or Keegan just isn't in the mood we don't have to stay too long and know we can come back another day. It has been fun to see Keegan grow up this year and see the different things that he enjoys to do at the museum each time we go.

The other cool thing today was that this guy was there hanging out with his family.His name is Josh Blue and he was the winning comedian on season 4 of Last Comic Standing (the only season I have ever watched). Super nice guy, and great dad, his son and Keegan are 10 days apart.

She's a BIG girl!

I am now 36 weeks along in the pregnancy, and we had an ultrasound today to check on our little girl. First of all, it is still a girl, which I was actually nervous about since they never got a "great" picture before. Second, she is going to be BIG. Right now she has a head circumference of 13 inches (Keegan had a 14 inch head when he was born), and she weighs approximately 7lbs 6oz. Babies tend to gain about 1/2 a pound a week in the last month. I have 3 weeks left till my c-section, which means that she is going to be a 9 pound baby!!! (Keegan was 8lbs 2 oz) Whew! I think that I am now leaning towards the c-section rather than the VBAC.

"De-de!"

We went to visit my co-worker Mimi and her brand new baby girl. Once again Keegan was in love! He was so sweet cuddling with her, and he kept pointing at her, saying "de-de!" which is how he says baby.

Don't take a man's cookie ...

Tonight was the Ward Christmas party. Keegan had a great time flirting with the little girls and this is my favorite two shots. I'll post more pictures later.

Thank You Ladies!!

My best friend Jodi was in town this week for Thanksgiving so she and my other BFF, Jessica threw my little girl a baby shower. It was at my house, but they took care of everything. They had decorations, food, a diaper raffle (where if you brought a pack of diapers you got to enter the drawing), and everybody decorated a quilt square for Jessica to put together later. Thank you SO much to my Mother and my wonderful friends for showering our baby girl with love, presents and diapers. I had so much fun! (click on the pictures to make them bigger)

Lots of generous presents and cute babies.

Keegan got to hold his first baby. He LOVES babies! He was SO happy holding him on his lap. He just wanted to cuddle and kiss him all day. When Eli sat next to him he kept putting his arm around him and giving me a proud look. I think he is going to be a great big brother (at least till he figures out that she cries and won't go away).
