Oh the fun!


Stefan is almost halfway through his second work trip in the last two and a half weeks, and then we have a short three day trip next week for him to get through (this one by choice) so he can start looking at areas to live in Phoenix and visit some daycares. Then we get him home until Baby U #2 arrives - yay and phew! 

On his five days home we fit in lots of fun! We got a sitter and went to an amazing Fish House dinner with two of our awesome Indy friends while they were down here for a quick anniversary trip (and of course they came here so they could see us before we move ;) ). Then on Saturday I got so spoiled by my dear Libby at a beautiful baby "sprinkle" followed by a pedicure - seriously she makes life so much better by being in it! The boys got to hang at a MSU/Auburn baseball game at the Blue Wahoo's stadium (yes, totally random MSU was here at this tournament with all other SEC teams). It was a beautiful warm and sunny day. Gavin loved it but Stefan says he loved the popcorn more!

Then I leave you with Gavin's first black eye and the one thing not going great from this pregnancy ... the removal of a pyogenic granuloma on my forehead. It started out about a month and a half ago really small then kept growing, in theory due to the pregnancy hormones. It wouldn't be going away on its own and it was in a bad spot that kept getting hit and then it bled like crazy. So after a lot of hassle I finally got it removed with a plastic surgeon since it was on my forehead and needed to be a "neat" scar. Something else fun to deal with - why not?! 

All ready with his MSU shirt on, his free Blue Wahoos hat, his new baseball glove and baseball. 

And then the after math ...

When I brought him in, he fell back asleep and you know I couldn't wake him up when I was getting snuggles! 

Then he woke up for am minute, rolled off me and ended up like this. Oh these boys! 

Stefan had to head to the airport but Gavin and I got to visit with some of our favorite Indy pals, Lauren and Dan, at their hotel pool.

And then we visited their hotel room where Gavin was jumping on the bed and his foot got caught in the sheets. He smashed his eye on the end table - this one hurt poor kid! First BLACK EYE :( 

Before

After - with a huge bandage for one day. 

The next morning - not too bad! Covering it with a band-aid until the stitches get taken out on Friday. Then hopefully just a little line of a scar that will fade. 
SPRINKLE PICS!

FL Friends Showering us with Loads of Love

Image
I have to say I feel very grateful and blessed to have some great friends in FL. It makes it a bit easier being away from family knowing we have loving friends here who are genuinely excited about Baby Underwood's arrival and spending time with him/her. Three special girls, Calli, Libby and Natalie, planned an Aussie-themed shower to go with the nursery theme. It was adorable and all so appreciated. Thanks to them and all the ladies who were able to make it out for a Sunday afternoon dedicated to celebrating the pending arrival of Baby U. Much love! Hand-knit koala hat! Brooke - you are so good! Lots of our FL family. Aussie-themed cupcakes, and they tasted great, too! To see the full album check it out here . Our last appointment went well! I passed my gestational diabetes test, uterus measured well, heart beat of the baby was strong, my weight was still right on and blood pressure was ... well, it is okay compared to where it has been. One more appointment...

First Trimester Fun

Image
LENGTH WARNING: Last post and this post are catching you up and will serve as a memory for us in the future, so we apologize they are a little long. Once we got home and settled from our European adventures we hunkered down while I fought daily fatigue, a decent amount of nausea, a few food aversions and a heightened sense of smell that often left me holding my noise and running away from its source. Our first doctor's appointment was scheduled for 8 1/2 weeks and it seemed like forever away. One huge blessing is working from home where I don't have to get ready or act "normal". Stefan and Andrew helped out with some cleaning, cooking and errands while I really took it down a notch. I normally have a hard time resting and relaxing and not accomplishing much in a day, so my July was a bit different. The first appointment was great for the most part. We got confirmation and even got an ultra sound. We could see it's little heart beating although we won...
