Update - Almost Time!

Tomorrow is the big day. The new baby McDermott will be arriving. We have to be at the hospital by 6:30a.m. for paperwork and prep. I can't believe it myself. I am so excited...and even more so because I don't know if it will be a son or a daughter. No offense to anyone - but why would you want to know? Its so fun and exciting NOT to!

Anyhow, here I am today - 39 weeks, 1 day

Brooke had her 18 month appointment on June 13th. She is 21 pounds, 8 ounces and 30 inches tall. Both about the 10th percentile. She is growing right along her curve - all perfect. The doctor said her 10 words are plenty and there is no worries about her speech. And she pretty much excels in every other gross/motor skill for her age. She is climbing everywhere like its her job! Never tires - needless to say - keeps us busy. But she is a good girl - so we sure aren't complaining!

We don't have an appropriate tree to put her swing in, so Kevin mounted it in the garage - and Brooke loves it!

Do you know what this is?

That is the dog food container. The red and green things are the army-guy gummies we gave Brooke - thinking she was eating them! But we later discovered she was throwing them in with the dog food!!

Maybe its not as funny to everyone as it is to me - but I thought it was so cute and funny!

Pregnancy and Me!

I've been a bad blogger! It has been awhile! I did try to upload a very cute video of Brooke climbing her stroller, but for some reason it didn't work!

Anyhow...this post is about me and the new baby. Just to say we are both doing well. All mine and the baby's stats are good. Besides feeling fairly huge, I feel good. With the humidity here - I have a bit of asthma trouble and some swelling...but overall, I can't complain.

Today is 3 weeks until the scheduled c-section. So, unless this little one decides he/she wants to come early - that is when we will meet the new baby! I am very excited! I still can't believe how time has flown.

Ok, with Brooke, for some reason there were no pictures of me after about 32 weeks. So this time, I wanted to try to be sure to get more.
