Both of you girls are staying plenty active and keeping me busy! Little baby is moving around non stop in my belly and making sure her presence is known. I'm now 22 weeks along which means we have 18 weeks to go for full term. Next week is another Dr appointment and I'm excited to hear her heartbeat again and know that everything is going well.

Jules - you continue to amaze me and be something else! The other night we had a thunder storm so you ended up sleeping with daddy and I because you were terrified of the thunder. Daddy tried to calm you down and even set up camp in your bedroom with you for a little while but then there was a loud clap of thunder and you climbed on top of daddy and were trembling so he decided it was time to bring you down to our bed. Today I knew there were going to be storms so I talked with you about it this morning before going to Marcie's and you were surprisingly ok with the fact that there were going to be storms and probably some thunder. I think that you are ok if it is during the day but can't calm back down when you are asleep and thunder wakes you up. Today while you were at Marcie's the tornado sirens went off so you guys were down in the basement for a while and you were telling me all about it when I picked you up. It is so cute when you are telling me because it sounds like you are saying "tomato sirens" when you say tornado. I'm now trying to explain the difference between tornado sirens and police and ambulance sirens because later tonight you made a comment about how you had to go to the basement when the tornado sirens went off or else you'd get sick.

Another sound that you struggle with is cycle (motorcycle) and circle because you try to make the first c a hard c. Today you were telling me how you love circles and it was so cute. You are very emotional right now and tell us all about how much you love things, really like something or don't like things. You also look for connections and similarities with other people. This weekend when we were having dinner at one point you were telling us how you and dad like one thing and you and I don't like another thing. It is really fun watching you develop these relationships.
