Crib Set Up & 27 weeks!

Grandma Kathy came over one night of Jenny's spring break, and helped put the crib together.   Our crib is from Target....love it! So did Muggles.  She was very interested in seeing every part of putting the crib together.  Earlier in the week, Auntie Amy came over and helped Jenny paint 2 of the walls of the nursery a light blue color.   More pics of the nursery are to come.  Jenny has to finish coat number 2 of the rocket ship/moon decor on the wall!
 
Seriously, within 30 seconds of putting the mattress in the crib, Mugs jumped right in and hand to check it out.  She has jumped in a few times, but I think, hopefully, she has lost a little bit of interest since then.  
We'll be closing the door when Braden is sleeping in it!

We love our sweet kitty, and hope she adjusts alright to a new little cutie in the house.  She didn't do to well with another kitty friend.  It will take a little time, that's for sure.  She has had one favorite spot during Jenny's pregnancy, that is on Jenny's lap.  Everytime I sit on the couch, she hops up, curls up, and falls asleep.  When the sun finally came out and the temp. got warmer, we opened up the door and gave her the lovely view and fresh air of outside.  That was until Jenny started having allergy symptoms again.  Chris and Muggles would much rather prefer to have the windows and doors open with this great spring weather.  Jenny had a sinus infection that wiped her out for a couple of weeks, and started to feel better, when allergy season kicked in.  But with the pollen counts extremely high, Jenny put her foot down and opted for closed doors and the ac instead.  Thankfully, the tree pollen count has started to go down.  
Here is more of Muggles enjoying the great outdoors!
Baby Bump at 27 weeks! As some of the teachers and kids say at school....Mrs. Popp has "popped"!

25 Weeks

 
Last week, I got together with my wonderful cousins, Kari and Corinne.  Kari was in town visiting some of her college friends.  Here are Kari and I in front of Corinne's place.  We enjoyed a day of shopping and eating along Grand Avenue.  Kari is a few weeks ahead of me, and is due in June.  She is having a little girl, so now she and Dennis will have both a boy and a girl. 

 
Here we are showing off our baby bumps! It will be so fun to have some little ones so close in age with each other.  It will definitely be a busy Christmas celebrating on that side of the family!
