This blog was started in 2008 when we did IVF for the first time to build our family after 5 1/2 years of infertility. We now have 14 and 8 year old boys (thanks to modern medicine) and we are enjoying our blessed life as parents ♥ In the summer of 2016 we took another huge step and moved across the country from Oklahoma to New York! This blog is about life and everything in between

Ruta-baby and Updates

25 weeks is here, and we are counting down!! Next week we will have less than 100 days until we meet little Bradley. Here are the updates for this week:



Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat. As he does, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. He's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.

I am still only 9lbs up--don't think I'm not eating though! I guess I might be burning a lot of calories at work or something. I'm sure I'll catch up! He has been moving a lot more, and it is so odd to look down and see my stomach waving around. The girls at work get a kick out of feeling him moving too.

As for his nursery, I finally bought the crib bedding! I will be able to pick it up in about a week. At Target recently, I saw these adorable little pillows, and I had to buy at least one for Bradley's room:

In other news, we got our house listed for sale on Friday. We hope and pray that it sells quickly--we had a bad experience selling our last house. It was on the market for 7 months!! Of course our current house has a LOT more going for it than that one, but we still worry. So if you know anyone looking for a nice house in Norman, OK, let me know!!


I haven't heard anything from my doctor about my glucose test, so I'm assuming I passed it. And we decided we are going to do the 3d ultrasound--probably around the end of this month. I haven't seen Bradley in over 6 weeks now and I'm getting withdrawals!
