Update

Lizzie here.  Just checking in.

We have had THE BEST week.  Doug's dad and brothers came down last weekend, my mom and Cliff came down at the beginning of the week, and my dad came down yesterday.  Needless to say, Kennedy has been getting lots of love.

We have a membership to the LA zoo and went with Mor Mor and Gramps this week.

Kennedy went on her first Merry-Go-Round.  She is still talking about it.

I had an ultrasound this week and learned that I have Polyhydramnios.  A fancy word for an abnormally high amount of amniotic fluid.  The doctor didn't seem too worried about it, but of course, I have consulted with Dr. Google and found out all sorts of stuff.  My doctor is going to give me another ultrasound next week and continue to monitor me closely, but Polyhyramnios is typically associated with fetal abnormalities or gestational diabetes, neither of which I have.  I must say, I'm a little relieved that my stomach is larger this time around because of excess fluid and not because I ate too many cheeseburgers :)

Doug and I were able to get out and see our second movie in theaters since Kennedy was born.  And the best news of all: my mom was able to successfully put Kennedy to bed!  This is the first time anyone has been able to put her to sleep beside Doug and me!!!  I didn't want to jinx it, but it's probably safe to say now that Kennedy has been going to sleep by herself for two months now!!!  No sleep training required.  She just decided that she would go "night night" in her crib by herself.  What a blessing that has been.

Tonight we are dropping her off at the church for "Parent's Night Out" and tomorrow we head to San Diego to go to the big zoo with Sarah and Jeremy!
