double-digit baby countdown just in time for triple digit heat

last week was cousins' camp and we had five of the eight cousins in town for the week.  asher, caroline,  carson, nathan, and link.  we had a blast.  water park, swimming, kayaking, top golf, a special girl lunch with caroline at the american girl store (that place is pretty overwhelming, she loved it!), went to see the movie "brave," and on and on.  lots of great memories were made.  it's so fun watching link bond with these precious cousins of his that i love so very much.  they are all a very big part of the reason i couldn't wait to have kids, because they are pretty special kids themselves!  sunday we topped it all off when the older cousins and their parents came to pick up their campers with brunch at breadwinner's.  good times!

nap time :)

american girl store - i don't know who was more excited, my mom or caroline.

lunch with my sweet care bear.  she and her sister, audrey are two of the BIGGEST reasons i can't wait to have a little girl.  love, love, love my sweet nieces.

trouble.

use the force, link!  (playing at the children's museum)

morning playground time.  because i told link parks without water are closed after lunch in the summer.  and they probably should be in texas.  it's HOT!!!!!!!!!!

i had a sonogram and 25 week appointment tuesday to check in on baby girl.  good news all around.  baby girl is doing great, and placenta has moved up and in place.  she is all limbs in there!  she looked like a baby deer on the sonogram, dancing all her limbs around like she wasn't quite sure what to do with them!  ha. as it went with link, we are starting to measure a couple of weeks ahead.  they are estimating her weight at about 2.5 lbs and she is already 15 inches long.  looks like we may have another long and lean baby on our hands.  and as of today, glucose test is complete.  now we are on the heels of the third trimester, and the REAL countdown begins!

26 weeks today!  down to a double digit countdown.
