Kochs: It's Been Awhile...

Hi Everyone,

Life has been pretty busy lately, can't believe it has been over a month since my last post. What really is bizarre, is that we will get to meet Carter in less than 11 weeks. Holy cow!! Her nursery is slowly coming together. It is funny how different things are with your second. With Malia, we started on her nursery months in advance. The rate we are going, we will be lucky to have Carter's done before she arrives. As we get it more put together, I'll post some pictures.

As for the pregnancy, things are going well. I just got my results back from my 3-hour glucose test...I PASSED!!! I told my nurse to put it in the file that if I should have a third child, I was NOT going to take that darn test again. I won't bore you with details, let's just say it is not very fun. I am now going to the Doctor every two weeks and Carter has continued to get a good bill of health. I just turned 29 weeks pregnant a few days ago, and she is actually measuring a little over 31 weeks. More in likely she will slow down, but if not we have the option to get induced if we choose to. The jury is still out on that decision. Part of me wants to wait it out and go into labor naturally, but then it might be nice to have her a week early. We shall see.

As for Malia, she is awesome! Every day she makes us laugh and blows us away that we actually made her. It is so much fun to actually have a conversation with her. I just love her personality and spirit. She too is getting excited for Carter's arrival. To hear her say "Baby Carter", just melts my heart. She also calls Carter, her "Baby Sissy". So sweet!! It is truly crazy to think that in a few months she will be turning 3! I sure wish life would slow down some, or that I could pause time.

In closure, I must confess I have been a little slack with taking pictures. My goal is to get better...especially for Carter's sake. :) Enjoy the pictures below and I hope to post soon with the progress of Carter's nursery.

Be Blessed. We love you all!
