19 months and 26 weeks

Makayla is 19 months old already...we're closing in on the two year mark. She's starting to show some signs of the "terrible twos." This has been challenging for me, as she tries to test and manipulate me more than anyone else. I've been standing my ground. I'd rather take the extra time now to teach her what we expect of her, than to be cleaning up bigger mistakes as she gets older. On the flip side, because we spend so much time together, I'm also the one who gets to rake in many of her hugs and kisses. Gotta love that!

I am 26 weeks pregnant. I'm feeling great. I've slacked a little on my exercises lately, but have gotten a lot of rest...give and take. Our little man is not quite the "mover and shaker" that Makayla was in the womb, so it will be interesting to see if this is reflective of his personality. I have my next doctor's appointment on the 25th, on which they will perform a 3D ultrasound. That should be exciting!!!
