Reading to Baby Z

Justin has been reading to Baby Z lately!  If she's not already awake and moving around, she'll usually respond to his voice with some movement and kicking around once he starts reading.  :-)

A couple books she really likes so far:

The Wit and Wisdom of Abraham Lincoln: A Book of Quotations

Where the Sidewalk Ends: Poems and Drawings

Oh, the Places You'll Go! by Dr. Seuss

Almost February...

Well it's almost February!  The month Baby Z  will come into this world!  Unless she decides January is good enough... there's still a few days left for that possibility!

Kacie & Justin have finished the Expectant Parents and Childbirth Prep classes at Avera Queen of Peace.  They are also both certified in Child and Infant CPR for 2 years.

Baby Z now has a LOT of clothes, probably more outfits than Kacie and Justin! :)  Lots of 0-3 month clothes from cousin Jaylyn, and some new outfits from the baby shower that Justin's teacher friends at the middle school threw for them on the 24th.

Kacie at 37 weeks

The doc appointment went well today -- everything still seems to be going well so far.  The past 2 weekly appointments, Kacie's been dilated to 1cm and 50% effaced.  Today the doc said Kacie is 2cm and 80% effaced -- so baby is making progress downward! Kacie is now 38 weeks along... when will Baby Z's birthday be?? It's anybody's guess!  :)
