28 weeks and some change.

Baby boy doing great. Had a doctor's appointment today. His heartbeat was 148 and measured 29 cm. Doctor states everything was just perfect!

Fall Fun!

The Green family tackled a few fall chores over the weekend, and managed to play a little too! Really Daddy did all the work and Danica and Mommy did a lot of playing. Daddy did take a break to play some football though : )

Pumpkin Patch Adventure!

Kelly and I took the afternoon off on Tuesday and took Danica to Carolyn's Country Cousins, a fabulous pumpkin patch and more, just outside of Liberty, MO. We had so much fun and it was the perfect day for picking a pumpkin. Danica enjoyed every part of visit--especially all of the animals!

What's for dinner?

What better way to pass the time than playing in a pot?

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM!

You've got it, one of our newest words is ice cream, and it is priceless. No doubt this kiddo belongs to Kelly and I, she does love her "I ceam!"

We celebrated Ethan's 10th birthday over the weekend with a little party at the Family Life Center here in town. You would have never known that Danica was the only girl amongst so many 4th and 5th grade boys--she had a blast: chowing on cake, riding the "bike", playing basketball and dodge ball. We had a great time and I think the boys did too!
We are excited that Kelly's last junior high football game was last night, and they won! Now he will be home to eat dinner with us and spend some time playing.

16 Months Old

It is nice to know that even a 16 month old can have a bad hair day. It is a bit hard to tell but Danica woke this morning with the most atrocious case of "bed head." I couldn't even get it to tame after 2 bouts with water and a brush. Needless to say, it was going to just have to be a bad hair day. It doesn't bother her, so why should it bother me : ) However, I did post a pic of my first real attempt at fixing her hair in a "pig tail" just so you know I do try.

Danica is still the vivacious little creature we brought home from the hospital 16 months ago and is so very intelligent. We have added so many words to our vocabulary, some of my personal favorites being "animal, Dora, and the no, no, no, with the finger shake" at the cat when his is perched by her high chair at dinner. She has officially named her Grammy Dorcas, as of Monday, MiMi, and it is too cute to hear her talk about her MiMi and PaPa. Fits them just perfect!

Danica is loving going to Janae's 2 days a week and is getting along great! She has learned to take her own pants off, now all we have to tackle is stacking more than 2 blocks : )

I am feeling pretty good, tired most of the time and feeling a little chubby. Kelly and I are busy, well I am busy, compiling the fall/winter "to do" list and it only seems overwhelming--now if we can only get the items accomplished before January : )
