I like to move it, move it!
Sierra must have had a major growth spurt or something. For the past few days I've suddenly felt a drastic increase in movements! Mainly just pressing against me, but some other movements too!

What a summer!
Mine and Isla's summer hasn't gone quite as planned. I spent a lot of the early summer with pretty bad morning sickness. It is definitely better than it was--I'll sometimes have 4 or 5 days where I don't get sick, but then I'll go back to being sick every day for a week or so. But at least it's not ALL day anymore. I'm not sleeping as much as I was early in the summer either, but I still need to lay down to rest most afternoons. And then there's the weather--we have had a fairly mild summer temperature-wise (thank you God!!) and quite a bit of rain this summer. So out of 4 planned water park visits, we went to one, one got rained out, one was too cool, and we missed one cause momma was sick. We'll see how our planned outing Tuesday goes--the high is only supposed to be 82 and there's a chance of rain.
Otherwise, life is flying by. Baby boy is due next month--we've met the birthparents and they both seem very nice. I pray for their strength as they face this difficult time. The plan as of now is when she goes into labor, we'll head to Florida. We'll go to the hospital when the baby is 48 hours old and S can sign the paperwork. We'll drive back to the Northwestern part of the state to wait for clearance to leave with the baby. P will probably fly home and my mom will probably fly down to help me wait for clearance and drive home with me, Isla, and baby Derrick. S's due date is at the end of the month, but I'm hoping this will be a mid-month baby.
Meanwhile, my pregnancy is flying by this time. I'm 21 weeks with another little girl. Sierra Rose has been nicknamed Cereal by her big sister. We figure Isla can call her Cereal until Cereal gets tired of it and beats her up. Then they can work it out amongst themselves. My official due date is 12/21, but again, I'm hoping for a mid-month baby. Isla was 15 or 16 days early so I know if I go past that, my patience will wear thin!
More later--
