The Deardurff Family: Pumpkin Patch

The date has been set for baby #2's gender reveal. We will have an extra special Halloween this year as we share the news with family and friends as to if we're expecting a girl or boy. I love hearing everyone's guesses. I will say this pregnancy has been pretty different than my first. From how I feel to what I want (and DON'T want) to eat. I'm sure there are many contributing factors such as the fact that I have a child to chase/look after and I'm two years older. It's been enjoyable (except when I'm hungry and nothing sounds good to eat), and funny how we're noticing the differences. At my first doctor's appointment we had a "scare" because the doctor said my uterus was higher than expected for that time in my pregnancy. So she order an ultrasound because she thought we were further along than originally expected or we might be having more than one baby. Brian and I were both a little anxious entering the ultrasound room after hearing that, only to find that there was one baby and (s)he was measuring right at 12 weeks. At my second doctor's appointment my uterus was right where it is supposed to be. This little one is already quite the attention seeker. This week I've thought I've felt movement. It has happened a few times and always when I pick Giada up.
This weekend the work continues on Giada's big girl room. Brian has been painting trim all week and today he and Charlie are putting it up. Next job is to clean the carpets and then move Giada in!
We decided against going to the Fall Festival this year. We had a very busy week and just didn't feel the madness was worth it. I always thought it would be amazing to be pregnant during the Fall Festival to get to eat all the greasy, fatty food. Ha! And here I am pregnant during the Fall Festival and somehow my priorities are different.
Friday Mommy and Daddy were off work and we spent the afternoon with Giada at Goebel Farms picking out pumpkins and looking at the animals. It was a beautiful day!
