Baby Hair
Yesterday I took Everett to get his hair cut. We only do this maybe about twice a year and it had been awhile. Since he is starting preschool soon, we had to get him cleaned up! This is the before picture.
Everett was borderline infatuated with this cut-out. He asked me to take his picture with it.
This is the first time Everett ever sat in the chair by himself.

Pregnancy Update and Eleanor's Nursery
I had my 35 week appointment yesterday. Everything went well. I am measuring right at 35 weeks and her heartbeat is strong. I am 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced. My OB predicts at this rate we definitely won't make it to our due date (Sept. 12), but is confident we can make it to 37 weeks. I really want her to be full-term, so I am praying she can wait just another week. I have another appointment next Thursday, so we will see where we are at that point. We are very excited to meet her!
Here are some of her headbands. I have enjoyed making some of them.
And her closet! It has been so fun adding to her wardrobe and of course I had to have pink hangers.
One of her plaques.
A plaque my sister made for her.
Looking out her window. I love that our crepe myrtle in the front yard has just blossomed with beautiful pink flowers. Just in time for her arrival!

Yay Books!
This morning we went to story time at our library. Today's theme was birthday parties. Blurry picture once again, taken from my phone-I keep forgetting to grab my camera.
Everett likes to sit in the back of the room for story time. Hampton however likes to be in the center amongst all the kids. He is so social! I was impressed watching him from the back of the room as he was able to follow directions from the librarian. For example, she would say clap your hands or pat your head - and he would do it! She also brought out a cow puppet and he squealed saying "moo moo!"
After story time we went and checked out a few books. I got "Dick and Jane" to read to Everett. Everett even got a free book today since he has now completed the summer reading program. I also checked out the first Harry Potter book for myself. I thought it would be fun to start that series.

It was a bit tricky holding Hampton, my purse, and our books while also holding Everett's hand out in the parking lot. We made it to our van thankfully, but I was praying no one would melt down before we got there. They saved the meltdowns for the car ride home!
I am not so sure if I will be able to manage this type of outing with three little ones. I'd like to think that I could, but I am also trying to be realistic. Thankfully Everett starts morning preschool (Tuesdays and Thursdays) later this month. I will then be down to two those mornings.

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, so we'll see if any progress has been made. If I have her when the boys were born, that is only a week and a half!
Cake!

Pool Side
Our friend Alicia invited us to go swimming in her subdivision's pool again today. We have a pool in our subdivision, however I love this one because they have a baby pool. We also love "Ms Licia's" company. Everett jumped right in this time and Hampton was a little apprehensive. He walked around in his float and then sat on the side of the pool splashing and looking for airplanes. After we swam we ate lunch in the cabana.
Hampton loves a jelly sandwich!
And Everett ate peanut butter and jelly. They ate a great meal. I think the sun just wears everyone out.
