Erika Pregnancy Update

After seeing Krista pregnant for many months, you'd think I would be used to seeing my daughters pregnant, wouldn't you? Well, I'm not. It cracks me up to see Erika's belly growing and to think she's going to be a mother soon. Not that I don't think she'll be a good mom, it's just that Erika has always been this family's athlete and it's funny, not in ha ha way, to see her body transforming from her athletic frame, to a mommy.

I just have to share this with you. The other day I was cleaning out a junk drawer in my room and I came across an old Santa Christmas list of Erika's. Take a look...

Street hockey stick and ball

Baseball glove

Head phones

champion sweatshirt

Michael Jordan / Larry Bird computer disk

Baseball/basketball cards

Trivial Pursuit Jr.

Nerf Football

Talkboy (please)

To help you understand why it was easier for me to not be so surprised at Krista's expanding belly during her pregnancies, take a look at her Santa list.

Ice skates

Fashion Magic

Magic Diary

Notebooks

Fashion boots (black)

Champion or IOU sweatshirt

Earrings

A big cross necklace

Headphones

Dress shoes

A white sweater (plain or another color)

Scrunch socks

silk shirt

Nail polish

Headbands and elastics

See what I'm talking about? LOLOLOL Identical twins, not so identical in interests.

Well I'm happy to tell you that Erika is doing really well. She looks great and is loving her whole pregnancy experience so far. As of this coming Sunday, Oct. 5th, she will officially be in her third trimester, which means she is beginning her 7th month. She loves to feel the baby move and boy, does it move a lot. You know, when I was pregnant with Krista and Erika, I knew from the ultrasounds that baby A was on the left and baby B was on the right. Baby A, who happened to be Erika, NEVER stopped moving and it was her that I could always count on to move around, if someone asked if they could feel one of the babies kick. Coincidence? Who knows, but time will tell if this baby will be a little Erika.

I only have a couple of pictures of Erika at the moment, but you can be sure I'll be posting more in the near future.

Have a great day everyone!
