Forgot to update this week...we had our 28 week appointment on Wednesday! It was the longest appointment in the history of time! I had to drink the yummy Glucola drink...mine was lemon lime and it was by far the sweetest thing I have ever drank! I was surprised Dylan wasn't bouncing off the walls in there but she did not seem to mind! We then had an ultrasound where daddy got to make sure she was still a girl and didn't grow boy parts in the past two months...she is! Great news that my placenta has moved back to where it is supposed to be and there should be no complications in that area! That little stinker hates having her picture taken and refused to show her face so no good pictures at this one! Boo! At my appointment I was 27 weeks 3 days and she was measuring at 28 weeks 6 days at a whopping 2 lbs 9 oz already! Daddy keeps calling her "haus baby"... I told him that is giving her a complex! So I am hoping for future reference that we don't get too many more newborn items...don't think they will fit past the first week if that long! Her heart rate was doing good at 141. Momma also checked out good and my blood pressure was 110/70 and I only gained 3 lbs! Yay!
I cannot believe we only have 12 more weeks to go...
We got her nursery furniture last week and daddy got it all put together! I got all of her little clothes washed and put in her drawers! It's coming together but still feels like I have a million things to do!
We have our second shower this weekend...hoping we get some good things! Update and picture to follow!

Bump up the Jam...
A little update on how big Dylan is getting!
Week 23 she is the size of a mango and also the week she decided she needed to dislocate my hip! I was in so much pain for about a week! It hurt to sit, stand, walk, lay down, pee... I was in tears most days! Of course the doc was no help just referred me to physical therapy...in two weeks! I decided to get a therapeutic massage which hurt like hell but actually worked wonders! I was like a new person in two days after that!
Week 24 she was the size of corn!
Now down to 25 week which means only 15 weeks more to go! She is the size of a rutabaga which we have no idea what that is (apparently some sort of turnip??) and it is also 13.5 inches to knock out confusion! Bob also must have been drunk when he took this because it is super blurry! Started physical therapy this week and while I was feeling much better, I think she just made it hurt again! Hoping it will be worth it in the long run and I won't revert back to the pain!
Oh this is also the week that Bob and mom finally got to feel Dylan kick from the outside! Still kinda weak from the outside but she sometimes flips like crazy! Going back in two weeks to make sure the placenta has moved out of the front and back where it is supposed to go! We are on the downward slide....
Not sure what happened at week 21 but I don't have a picture for that one!
Week 22 she was the size of spaghetti squash! Getting bigger everyday!
Week 23 she is the size of a mango and also the week she decided she needed to dislocate my hip! I was in so much pain for about a week! It hurt to sit, stand, walk, lay down, pee...

Baby Shower #1
So busy around the Brooks house lately! Seems we are always on the go! So excited we got to spend this past weekend getting ready for baby Dylan! Aunt Phyllis was so nice to throw me a shower at her house and it was so nice! I offered to make the invitations since it was kinda short notice and I had to send them all over the globe!
I am also lucky to have great friends! My friend Jaime and her mom Nickie agreed to make the cake...for free! I was so excited! And it turned out great!
I was so excited about everyone that showed up despite the rain that day! Some people I have not seen in a while so that was fun as well! Just a few pics to see all the stuff Dylan racked up!
Beware: Lots of PINK ahead!
It was so much fun and I am pretty sure that Dylan has enough clothes for the entire first year! Things are coming together pretty great in preparation!
