We had a birthday breakfast this morning but the big celebration was Saturday. 27!
Cant believe it :)
The light was perfect last night for me to take these pictures of Ella. She loves to pick flowers...what little girl doesn't?
Ella and I have a bi-morning ritual of going out to the garden, watering and checking on the plants. This morning we gave the tomatoes a long water with the hose on low so it could really soak the soil. It has been pretty hot. Ella loves to stand there in her rain boots and hold the hose. I was moving some pots around (rats don't like change, so I move the planters every so often) and talking to my mom on the phone. We had been out there for about 10 minutes when all of a sudden a HUGE rat shot out of the grass by Ella's feet and ran to a hole in the bricks by the fence. It happened so fast, Ella and I both jumped and then Ella ran to the other side of the lawn. I took the hose and sprayed it into the rat hole, hoping it would deter the rat from coming out anytime soon. I cant believe how gutsy the rat was, hanging out in my garden in broad daylight! I wonder if Ella will be so eager to water in the future...
We don't really know how far along I am, 27 or 28 weeks. I had to go into Labor and Delivery on Tuesday (to many contractions and some bleeding.) Baby and I are doing well but they say I am 28 weeks... Doesn't really make much of a difference in the end. The baby comes when it wants to.
So just in case this is my first week in the third trimester... a picture!
As Ella walked into the kitchen I noticed she had a little blood blister on her lip.
Me: Ella, what happened to your lip? Did you bite it when you fell in the bathroom?
Ella: No, I was just fighting...
Where does she even come up with this stuff??
