30 weeks pregnant now...things are going ok. At my last ultrasound my placenta was still covering my cervix so i have to go back in a few weeks and if it hasn't moved then there will be talk of a scheduled c-section. Kind of a bummer b/c i really wanted to try this whole labor and delivery thing again but of course, I'm all for doing the safe thing! At my last doc's appt the heart was 140 and things seem like they are going well. The baby was 2lbs 11 oz at 28 weeks, right on track so the placenta is functioning even though its not cooperating. I'll take it. For my own reference, some symptoms i'm experiencing are: upper back pain if sitting or standing too long, aches and pains in my lower abdomen, overall fatigue, can't walk for long without getting a pain in my abdomen which is kind of a bummer. Also think i'm having braxton hicks every now and then. Going back to the doc tomorrow...

As for Payton, she's definitely testing us more and more. We had a 20 minute stand off with her the other day b/c she threw a cup and didn't want to pick it up. Things that seem so easy to us are apparently the end of the world to a two year old. As much as she fights us lately, she's also very entertaining ha :) she makes us laugh so much - such a personality. and she's so damn smart (we think so anyway!) I can't remember if i already wrote about this but in case I didn't - we were walking the other day and i told her we were going to get some exercise, a few minutes later she asks "where does exercise live?" ha! I did say we were "going to get it" so i could see why she would be asking! Another funny Payton moment, Brian was away for Nick's bachelor party so we were on our own Saturday night, after I put her to bed she called me into her room and said "i have to ax you a kestion" so i told her to go ahead and ask, she says "knock knock who's there??" and starts laughing - love it, the kid just cracks me up!! <3
