Baby Update
Today I had my 32 week appointment and ultrasound. Everything is looking good and the baby is growing really well.
Everett is measuring to be 4lbs and 9oz, so by the time he is born he will probably be around 8 to 9 pounds. :-) Good thing I don't have to worry about pushing out such a big boy.
Calvin got to see his baby brother on the ultrasound for the first time. He would look at the monitor and then at my belly. I really don't think he understood that the image on the monitor was from my belly, but it was neat having him there. :-) When we tell him there is a baby in my belly he just points to my belly button. I guess he will figure out that he has a baby brother on the day we bring him home.

Baby number 2
We are having a boy again! And are very excited. His name will be Everett Dean Ede. We think it will be so neat that Calvin and his baby brother will be so close in age and hopefully will be good friends as they grow up. Everett is due to come at the beginning of December by a repeat c-section.
This pregnancy has been a little different from my first. I had morning sickness for a lot longer, I felt the baby move sooner, and the baby is way more active than Calvin ever thought about being. (Calvin was active just very predictable) I am also a lot more nervous with this one and tend to call my doctor more than I did when I was preggo with Calvin. I have already gone to the hospital twice. One time because I was feeling a tighting in abdomen for a whole day, which my doctor said were contractions but they were not bad enough to cause any dialation. So I am now taking a medicine if I have three within an hour to stop them. Which is helping. When I was being monitiored at the hospital they said that I had 1 real one but the others were more like irritations. SO now I am suppose to take it easy and not do too much. (That isn't so easy with a little one running around). Scott has really taken charge and has been very helpful along with the rest of my family. The second time I went to the hospital was because I didn't feel the baby move very much and was sorta freaked out. So back to the hopsital for an ultrasound which showed that Everett was just fine. (I felt sorta silly for this one).

Calvin Update
Well it has been almost a year since we have put anything new up on our blog. YIKES! And so much has happened. Calvin is a big boy now and doing big boy things. He loves to play cars, dig in his sandbox, and push anything he can around. He started walking on Father's Day and is now running and climbing everywhere.
He has also developed a pretty big vocabulary using both sign language and words (even though some of his words aren't that clear). He knows around 22 words and 15 signs.
Calvin has grown so much within the year. We go on Tuesday for his 18 month visit and will find out all his stats then.
Here are a few pictures from 9 months to now.
