Funny Films

We caught Taelyn on video again during some funny moments. Today on Sesame Street (Taelyn's favorite show!), Elmo talked about jumping and all the different ways that people can jump. So when he started demonstrating, I encouraged Taelyn to jump too, and she tried to do it! I didn't know she knew what jumping meant, but it's amazing to see how much she actually does understand. So the first video is a very brief segment of her jumping.



The next video is of Taelyn during bath time. She recently started stacking all of her toys on the ledge of the tub and yelling as she does so.

Latest Ultrasound

I had my second (and probably last) ultrasound yesterday at my 30 week check-up. It's weird to only have two ultrasounds this time around when I had one at every appointment in Hong Kong with Taelyn. The baby is now 3 lbs., 3 oz., and everything looks right on track and healthy. We got to see her face quite a bit, but the pictures do not really do it justice.

The last 30 weeks have gone by pretty fast, and now there is only 10 weeks to go (or sooner if this little one comes quicker like Taelyn did)! I am feeling well while my tummy is getting bigger and bigger. Taelyn especially likes using it as a pillow when we snuggle.

Happy Easter!

We had a very Easter with our friends, Leah and Steve, out here in Colorado. We went to their house and first set up an Easter egg hunt for Taelyn (which really meant we threw a bunch of eggs filled with Cheerios in the center of their yard). Then Justin, Leah, and Steve practiced some softball for their upcoming league. And we later had lamb for dinner. If was a great, relaxing day with beautiful weather. Here are a few candid Taelyn pics from the day.






Taelyn gets her Easter basket with enthusiasm.









She is excited to find some eggs!











But she also has to compete with Chunk to get the eggs.









She puts all of the eggs in her basket....









.... and then takes them all out.
