Mr. T

Matt is really into bubbles in his bath. He laughs and thinks it is great when Karl puts them on his face and head. We think he looks like Mr. T in this picture. The other highlight this weeks is his new toothbrush. We got him an electric one with Ernie, Zoe and Cookie Monster on it. He loves to show it to anyone who comes over and name the characters on the brush!
The mom's group we are in started a music class every other week. We held the first class at our house and Matt really enjoyed it. Another girl in the group leads us in songs and activities. Matt stays fairly focused and attended for almost the full 45 minutes. We are still in the Mommy, Daddy and Me class twice a week. I signed Matt up again in October although depending when his brother arrives I don't know how many sessions we will attend.
I saw the perinatologist on Wednesday. Everything with Micah looks good and the MD told me he thinks everything is going to go great for us. Micah is a lot smaller than Matt. He was 4lb 12oz on Wed. when I was at 34 weeks. Matt weighed 5lb 14oz when he was born at 34 weeks. If Micah follows the books he should be gaining about 1/2 lb a week from now on. I am finding out the last month of pregnancy is a whole new ball game!!
Karl has been running with a local running group, High Desert Runners. They hold occasional weekend trail runs and weekly speed workouts on the track. This past week they ran a timed mile. Karl did pretty good and ran 5min 23sec. Matt and I usually go out to the track to cheer him on. Matt has fun taking Daddy water after he runs and chasing him when he runs by.
That is about all for the week. We had a great visit with Brad and Jeanette when they stopped by for dinner on Monday night. They were on their way to a memorial service and were able to stop by for a short visit. Hopefully they will be able to stay and visit longer soon. We have settled in nicely in CA although we miss our family and friends in Vegas and that is hard.

5 min 23 seconds is just "pretty good"? I am mighty impressed.

Andi - you are a GORGEOUS pregnant girl! I'm glad to hear that everything is going well with Micah. I'm convinced that they can't pinpoint unborn babies weight too accurately, they were always a couple pounds off with my kids. Hope all continues to go well! Matt looks adorable as Mr. T!
