Yes, it was a crazy week last week!
First, I had an unltrasound & got to see the little one inside... so cool! I have never had an ultrasound so early and it was exciting to see it move & see the tiny heartbeat long before I can feel the movements. Bad news though, baby is measuring so that my due date is 10 days FURTHER AWAY!!!! Moved from Nov.4th to Nov.14th, which seems like no big deal until I remember how much I dislike the last few weeks of being pg & can NOT imagine adding another 10 days to that already loooong period of time :) But, I guess that I will be unless this little one decides to come early, LOL.
See, I am already talking myself out of those 10 days! Oh well, here is a not-so-clear pic of the newest baby Jones :)
And here is a MUCH better intrepretation from babycenter.com 
where I get weekly e-mails telling me all about how the baby is growing, how/what I should be feeling etc. I really enjoyed these with my past pregnancies, but am finding it harder to sit and read them this time, LOL! I guess that happens though.
I also bought another pregnancy journal for this time too. I've kept one each time and really enjoy looking back through them every now and then. It is fun to read about my cravings and weight gain, but the best thing to look back on is the excitement and the letters I've written to/ about each child. Very sweet :)
Kaden went to spend a few days with my Dad & they enjoyed it SOOO much. I missed him, but he tells me he was having too much fun to miss me, LOL! I have to be happy though because this was his first extended visit anywhere, and he had a great time. He is growing up SO fast, I can hardly get over it....*sniff* 
It is hard to believe that there was ever a time that it was just the two of us anymore. Kaden & I had two years together, and it was so different being the mother of one. I was able to give him so much more of myself than the other two were ever able to have.
Okay, change subject...emotional pregnant Momma now leaving the post, LOL!
Ellie & Zander and I spent our days at the park, really enjoying each other. Of course we also had to venture to the "candy store" for snacks each afternoon too (see pic below).
We really had alot of fun. The two of them get along GREAT and with big brother (and argument starter) gone... they were PERFECT together. They missed Kaden a ton though & poor Zander (who shares a room with him) woke up each morning saying "Bubba? Bubba?" It just broke my heart. I kept telling him he was visiting Grandpa & would be home VERY SOON!
Thursday came quickly, and we headed up to Grandpa's get Kaden & head for Toledo. There we would finally meet my God daughter Katelyn Grace for the first time ~ woohoo! Her Mommy is my college roomate & friend Judi, and I had not seen her since her wedding two years ago when I was VERY pregnant with Zander. 
We met them Friday at the Toledo zoo (which could be a whole other post, LOL), and then Saturday was her baptism & "meet the baby" shower. They are living in Florida right now, and most of their family & friends are still here in Ohio, so many had not been able to see them & the baby yet.
It was VERY nice to see them & such fun to meet little Katelyn, as well as see Judi as a Mother, which has been a loooong time dream of hers :) I am just SOO happy for her! In a little over a year, her other long time dream will be complete too...she will be a Pediatrician! I bet it can not come fast enough for her, LOL!
WHEW! I did not even get to finish talking about my week, but I have to get on with my day....so hopefully I can post again very soon :)
