Busy, busy, busy!! That is Todd and I! This weekend we had a busy one.

Friday night, Mom, Me, Todd, Justin and Holly all met for dinner at Tailgators in Brandon (was super yummy!!!) And then Mom and I went to a play in Brandon. The Prairie Repertory Theatre was doing a play called "Social Security" It was a really good play, the actors where great!

On Saturday I had Lily all day while her family was moving into their new place. It was also Lily's 2nd Birthday so I took her to do lots of fun things, we hung out at Chuckee Cheese, and went swimming, all kind of fun stuff! While I was out having fun with Lily - Todd spent all day priming all the baby furniture getting ready to paint (although the Cubs game was conveniently on also, so he didn't mind too much)

Sunday was another busy day - I spent the day running errands, grocery shopping, visiting my Dad, etc. And Todd spend the day painting the baby furniture!! He was a little sore by Sunday night, but the furniture looked great and he still managed to help me clean up around the house (he's becoming an excellent duster and vacuumer!).

That was a recap of our busy weekend!!! Nothing else too exciting going on - we are just getting excited to start working on the nursery, hopefully will be picking out paint color for the room this weekend! We got the baby bedding delivered last week also, and we LOVE It!!! It's perfect! Thanks to Grandma and Momma Dziobecki for getting us the baby bedding!

As always, we keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers, and we hope that you can keep praying for us, as our time closes in - three months till baby!!!!

Another Pregnancy Funny!

Tuesday July 25, 2006

Not much new to report in the Anawski household. We have been spending most of our times indoors as it has been hot outside!! Sioux Falls has even reached 100 degrees a couple of days!!!

We bought the paint this week to start working on painting the baby furniture, and the baby bedding should be delivered to us sometime this week - so we have been excited to start working on the nursery.

I had my 24 week appointment on July 17th and everything went well. My belly measured right at 24/25 weeks. Heart rate was right at 145-150. I gained a lot of weight this last four weeks (yikes!) but the Doctor was happy about it - as I am where I am supposed to be now. Other than that things have been going well. Starting to really feel pregnant as bending over is harder to do and I am out of breath going up the stairs!! Although she doesn't ever let me forget she's there - she is always, always kicking around!! Especially at night, you can actually see my belly shake!

Todd is doing well, he has been a great help with things, he helps vacuum and clean house, and does a lot around the house, he hasn't quite gotten down the back massages thing, but I am wearing him down, trying to convince him it's part of his pre-fatherly duties!

We are getting down to the final four months, and Todd and I are feeling the pressure of getting a lot done before this baby gets here, just to be prepared financially and with things in the home, etc. so please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we try to keep the stress level low (which let me tell you is not easy for a pregnant lady!!!) Also, please keep my Dad in your prayers also, as he is still hanging on every day. He has good days and bad, and we just try and spend as much time with him as possible, helping him through the bad days and enjoying the good days with him!

That's all for now! Congratulations to our friends Kim and Travis Lee who just announced they are having a baby - due in February!!!! So exciting!!!!

Not to much to report to you but thought I better keep this updated!! This weekend was a pretty relax one for Todd and I. With the weather being so hot, we spent most of our time indoors just getting stuff done around the house. I did make it out Saturday night to go to the movie RV with Robin - it was very, very funny!!! I would definitely recommend! Sunday night Todd and I used our awesome Gift Certificate to Century Theatre to go see Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - which of course, was an amazing movie!

So that's our movie review for this week! Todd is currently in Washington, DC until Thursday for work, please keep him in your prayers for safe flights and all that, and while he is gone, I am just getting work done around the house (exciting huh?!)

Peanut (our baby girl) is doing great, she really is a mover and shaker now - I can feel her kicking around all the time, but I enjoy it - makes me feel close to her and always remember she is there!

That's all for the Anawski's now!

Happy Father's Day!!!

This Sunday was Fathers Day and we had a really good day!
We visited my Dad, and spent some time chatting with him, then we went to Todd's Mom and Dads house and had Pizza and visited.
It was also a special Father's Day because Todd also was a special Father this year! The baby may still be in my tummy, but Todd is already being a great father to her, just by helping out me with all the day to day stuff, and helping me through the pregnancy! Tom and Todd

It's A.......

Today was our 20 week appointment!! It was the big day with the ultrasound, and hopefully we were finding out the sex of our little peanut...

The baby was a little apprehensive about having it's picture taken....Baby kept turning around, and making it difficult to get a good look! The ultrasound tech said we where getting lots of great pics of the baby's hand - the hand kept coming up like it was saying "no more pictures!"

Then...We were trying to find the out the sex of the baby...And....The umbilical cord was right between baby's legs...This made it very difficult to tell...The ultrasound tech said she had an idea..But wouldn't tell us till she was confident.

After an hour of ultrasound...Getting up, moving around, and trying to get that cord to move, it finally moved for a little bit...And...We had it.....

IT'S A GIRL!!!!

We are both so excited!!! By the time we got to the part of doing the 3D ultrasound....Our little girl had turned away, curled up and went to sleep...So as you will see in the middle picture below, our pic is basically of her side/back.

Everything looked great, she is at 100% growth for 20 weeks, and everything looked good! Boy, or girl, we didn't care, we just wanted to hear the good news, that baby was healthy!!

Todd and I went to Spezia's for lunch to celebrate, after making lots of phone calls! Below are a couple pictures from the ultrasound.

This weekend was so beautiful outside, I couldn't help but be at the pool!! I had Lily on Saturday and wen went to the Pool with Toni, Kira and Landon! Landon and Lily had a blast playing in the water, and Toni and I enjoyed just hanging out in the sunshine.

On Sunday we went out to Round Lake (Outside of Worthington Minnesota) and spent the day with Robin and Family and Bess & Family, Todd also brought his buddy Jeff along - we all had lots of fun just chatting and hanging out in the water!
