25 weeks!!

Baby girl is growing at rapid speeds. She is over a foot long and nearly 2lbs. She sleeps about 80% of the time and I always know when she is awake because she is becoming more and more wiggly! Her tiny nostrils have been plugged up until now, but are not starting to open. Her vocal cords are getting ready to roar too!

We celebrated Father's Day last Sunday with a fun day together. Carli slept in until 8:30 so that was her first gift to her daddy (and mommy) but once she was awake she was very anxious to give Nick his presents.

Our A/C officially kicked the bucket at the end of last week so we decided the best weekend resolution was a new pool! We all enjoyed it and kept cool. By the evenings, we had a nice breeze and ate dinner outside. We even snuck in a quick afternoon nap and family selfie!

Because of the hot house, we didn't make the progress we wanted on the nursery but the crib did arrive and I love the gray color! Trying to carve out a little time over the next week (after the new A/C unit is in place) to finish painting and get the crib assembled. In the meantime, Carli has been having a ball dressing her baby dolls in newborn clothes. She has already promised that she will help pick out "sissy's" outfits every day. 



I stumbled across this adorable book this week and can't wait to read it to our little miss and big sis!

Made a quick pit stop in Springfield this week and it only seemed right to come home with a sweet treat!
