Those watermelon seeds that were accidentally swallowed as a kid finally grew...into a baby!

Appointment Update
Tuesday we had another appointment with the Captain and she checked Julie for dilation. Ella is pretty much staying put right where she is and is still pretty high up. Her heartbeat is still very good. Julie actually lost a pound since last week and her BP was a little higher but still in a good range. Usually Julie has more down time before vitals are checked so that could be it. Nothing to worry about which is great news! The next two appointments were made since the Captain will be gone on vacation and we got refreshed of when we might have to go to the hospital and alternatives if the tunnels are backed up which is always good info to know!! In the mean time we continue to wait and get ready to be put on the books for an induction in the event Julie gets to week 41 and Ella is still being a stubborn princess ;)
Julie
Julie's first week without work went well, nothing too exciting. She got some cleaning and crafting done. Our small stash of cloth diapers are prepped and ready. We will be doing part time cloth diapering since the day care on base will more than likely not allow cloth when school starts back up. She's also looking into this whole IL certification transition that is taking place back home so she can keep her IL certification valid. It sounds like a headache and thankfully it was brought to Julie's attention before the end of the month. Sleep is slowly going out the window for Julie but Béla has been snuggling up after Curtis leaves in the morning to keep her company. :)
Curtis
Curtis is doing very well in school and is currently one of the top students! He also had an evaluation done with his squadron and it was very good! Nothing too out of the ordinary to report otherwise but that's okay. Still keeping fingers crossed he can finish school before Ella arrives!
Béla
Béla is feeling a little left out of the blog world...she stopped sleeping in our room about a week ago and is back in her bed in the hallway. That was a switch because she hasn't done that since before we found out about Ella. She knows when it's bedtime and gets ready and lays down like she used to. She really wants to go in Ella's room anytime we step in there even if only for a minute. She's getting ready to be big sister and taking advantage of mommy and daddy time by snuggling and playing fetch. We love watching her come back with her toy mouse in her mouth and a little pep in her step! One of these days we will have to get it on video but she's sneaky and knows when the cameras are on her. :). Béla is doing a great job of keeping Julie company and will be spoiled the next couple months having her home!

This will probably be true! haha Thanks Celeste! |
Now to wait and see what another week brings! Keep on guessing in the poll and we will see what Ella decides to do as her due date approaches!
