New Cousin

Preston is proud of his new cousin, Andrew. He can't wait to play with him. By Christmas they should be able to interact more. They will grow up having so much fun playing together.

He's a little cutie! Slaton babies can't help but be cute!

17 Months-Preston/ 17 weeks- Baby #2

September 1st Preston turned 17 months old and this week I am 17 weeks along with Baby #2.

We went to the doctor on Wednesday and everything is checking out great. She said that the baby is up to my belly button now which makes sense because I'm starting to feel something going on in that region. I'm not going to say I feel kicks yet, but I feel something. Baby's heart rate was 146 beats/min. which was about 10 beats less than last month's check up. I will FINALLY get my gender sonogram the last Friday of this month. I am so impatient because my last doctor did one at 16 weeks and that's when we found out we were having a boy. This pregnancy is going a lot faster than with Preston.

Speaking of....he's babble-talking a LOT lately! If he sees a dog- "wuff wuff", cow- "moooo", cat-(high pitch) "meowww". He cracks me up on the cat sound because it's so different from anything else I've heard him do. He can pretty much mimic any animal noises we do but those are the ones he'll do on his own. Lately, he has been dragging out my "Lady and the Tramp" Disney video. He brings it to me and says, "Wuff wuff." I think it's funny that he keep picking that one out because Dustin and I watched that movie the night I found out I was pregnant with him. Such a cute coincidence!!
Well, this month we were suppose to start Preston in Mother's Day Out and I just had to bail. I just couldn't do it. I have 4-5 more months till baby #2 is here and I just really want to spend all the time I can playing with Preston. I don't really think it's for him as much as it is for me. I would have loved the break to get stuff done, but goodness...I should be able to get stuff done with him here, too.
Well, we survived summer and now we are off to an exciting fall. Going on vacation, couple retreat/conference, Friday night football games, 5th Quarters, D-Now, State Fair, Thanksgiving, Christmas....AAAAaaaHH....Christmas will be here before we know it and Baby #2 will be on the heals of it all. Exciting times in the Slaton household!
