25 weeks

New developements in the little life of Lily... she's recently developed hiccups. But only around 3 or 4 am, which is... interesting. It almost feels like that little muscle twitch you sometimes get by your eye. So, yes, interesting is what I'll call it. I can also tell she's growing like a weed, because (1) it feels like she's getting a little cramped in there with all the kicking and twisting and turning and (2) I'm constantly starving, even after I've just finished a meal. Geez.

Wade is slowly becoming more accepting of his little sister, "Luly." He told me the other day that he wanted to sleep in her room. When I asked her why he said it was to be close to her. As if that wasn't sweet enough, when I asked him why he needed to be close to her, he said it was to help her- like bring her a bottle, hold her and sing her songs. Yes, I almost cried.

The nursery is also coming right along. After a small meltdown, where I'm pretty sure Mark was scared for his life, the walls miraculously turned pink! I also suddenly received multiple emails and phone calls from prospective buyers of Wade's crib and sellers of beautiful used white cribs (I have been scouring Craigslist like crazy). So, this last weekend alone, I sold his crib and got hers; the crib bumper came in the mail and the room was painted a bright shade of "pink frenzy."

Beautiful pink walls, white crib and sweet little owl crib bumper. Still waiting on mobile & crib sheet to make it complete...
