Its been a while.....

So.....it appears that Heather (and I) have not posted anything in a while so here is an update.
Heather is now halfway through the 29th week (can you believe it) and Emma is really starting to make her presence known......in other words, Heather is looking prego!! Emma has also been very active "inside the womb" (S. Griffin). She rolls around and around and from what Heather has told me, does not jab as much. Emma is now approximately 3 lbs and 15 inches long. She can survive outside the womb and has mastered many skills including sucking (look out buddies), and she is really starting to look more like a baby with the added fat she has packed on.
During Heather's 29 week exam, she had to do her glucose test and had to drink what was basically fruit flavored sugar water. It was a little interesting when the nurse who drew Heathers blood said that she wasn't a very good blood taker and I don't think she was fibbing too much as I watched her jab the needle in Heathers arm and move it all over. But she was successful and Heather pumped two bottles of the red stuff, better her than me :p
The apartment is starting to look very different. We have the beginnings of Emma's room in progress with the purchase of a pack n play which was an adventure to put together. There are packages of diapers, wipes, and Emma's wardrobe is starting to develop thanks to her Aunt Kathi and Aunt Rachel and Yia Yia Joan. Sylvia is not quite sure of what to make of all the changes.
Heather flies home to ATL in a week for her baby shower that here mama and sister are throwing for her. She is so excited to get back home, she has not been back since we went there for vacation in June. She can't wait for her precious Krystal's burgers and Zaxby's chicken. She may even hit the Krystal's in the airport!!! So I will be a bachelor again for a week. Woo-hoo!! Kidding everyone. Anyways, during the last part of her being absent, I will have to go to Scottsdale, AZ for district meetings for work. So, Sylvia will be running the apartment for a couple of days and I'm sure she will make the most of it by destroying the chair. That's all for now, promise Heather and I will update more often.
