just a quick note to let ya'll know that I'm still pregnant.
This is the longest I've ever gone without pre-term labor. Maybe I will make it to term....

3-D baby
Everything is still looking great. Maybe I will make it to term (knock on wood).
Thought you'd like to see a 3-D picture of the baby.
We're still not finding out the sex of the baby.
And a bonus picture of Nolan in his baby pool.
OMG! I'm going to have 2 kids at home!
Time to panic!

2 weeks? or 9 weeks?
I went into labor with Nolan for the first time at 32 1/2 weeks. I'm 30 1/2 weeks now. So, will I go into labor again in 2 weeks or will I make it to full-term?
No one knows. The drs are doing everything to get me to term, but with a history of 2 premature births my chances aren't good.
The stress is really starting to get to me (Cary will tell you - my emotions are everywhere!). I keep thinking about everything I need to do and I might only have 2 weeks left to do everything. Or I might have 9 weeks left. If I make it term, I'll have a scheduled c-section in week 39. The dr told me that at my last appointment. Then added that our first goal is to get me to 37 weeks or at least 35 weeks.
I told my drs I'm having 2-3 contractions a day. They were thrilled. How many people make their drs happy when they have contractions at 30 weeks? They were thrilled that I'm having only 2-3 contractions a day.
Nolan is still growing. He's quickly approaching his terrible twos. I'll try to post pictures of him. Cary got some good pictures of Nolan at the pool a couple of weeks ago. (I'm not allowed to go to the pool, so we got Nolan a baby pool. He plays in the pool and I sit next to the pool.)

Boring is good
I went to the doctor yesterday. It was another nice, boring appointment. I love those. The baby is about 2 lbs, 13 ozs. Everything looks great. We still don't know the sex!!
I go to the OB next week and back to the perinat in 2 weeks. I hope things continue to be nice and boring.
I'm *almost* enjoying my boring pregnancy.

Circle
We all know Nolan is a genius . Thought you'd like to hear the latest genius thing he did:
Saturday night we were at a friends house. He looked up in the sky, pointed, and said "circle." I turned to see what he was pointing at - there was a circle-shaped moon.
A couple of weeks ago we were at another friends house. Nolan was playing on my friend's son's toddler bed.
He would get up on the bed, crawl around, lay down, and get back down. One time when he was getting up on the bed, he stopped, turned to us and said "I get up here."
The dr told us he would start putting 2 words together. She didn't mention anything about 4 words! What really impresses me is how clearly he saids his words. Most of his words, anyone can understand. He only has a few in baby language (i.e. "gaa" for ball)
Pregnancy is still going great. No changes. I go to the OB every other week and to the perinat every other week. I'm still getting my weekly 17P shots (they help prevent preterm labor).
I have now made it past the gest. age when I delivered Caleb. That was a great day. In the next couple of days, I will start my 3rd trimester.
We still haven't found out the sex of this baby! Cary thinks it's a boy, I think it's a girl.
We do have a girl's name picked out. We had a boys name picked out until I mentioned another name I heard. Now we have 2 names for a boy.
