Today is Baby H's 31 week birthday! Thursdays are such great days as he reaches new milestones. He is definitely going through a growth spurt as Sara can't consume enough food to keep him (and her) not hungry. Oh well, bring on the ice cream...actually muffins hit the spot more these days! Weight gain to date is 22 pounds and the doctor said between 21-27 at this point, so we're doing just fine on that front. When we went in for our 30 week appointment, Baby H was measuring right on track (30-30.5 cm). We also learned that he is about 3 pounds and 18.5 inches in length. We're just not quite sure how he fits in Sara's belly. It's so tiny, he must really be crunched up. Poor guy!
The Roslansky's have a family tradition of giving little gifts everyday for about a week before birthdays. We have implemented that at our house as well, which will be a fun tradition to continue with Baby H! When the Roslansky's came up last weekend they had a surprise - a big bag filled with gifts for Baby H, and you guessed it...we get to open one a week until he's born, which we'll do on his Thursday birthdays! What fun!!
So, an update would not be complete if we didn't mention little Randle (aka Randini the weenie dog). We were feeling guilty that he's been holed up in his kennel anytime we leave the house since his whole blinds eating episode in June. Actually, two different blinds eating episodes. We left him out on Sunday once when we went to church and once while we ran to Target and he did great! No accidents or destroyed blinds! Since he passed those tests with flying colors we decided he earned the honor of staying out of his kennel all day Monday while we were at work. BAD IDEA! Sara came home to what she thought was a house in tact...until she walked past the vertical blinds and low and behold found 5 destroyed blinds. She wasn't even mad, her heart just sank knowing that Randle (aka craphead now) would officially not be trusted to ever be out of his kennel when we're not home. It's only his fault. And thank goodness, replacement blinds were much cheaper than a whole set. This time, we're "only" out $67.
Seriously, how does a dog this small cause so much damage?
