Where does the time go?

Hi everyone -
It's been a busy few weeks since we "blogged" last. Sorry - guess we've been busy!
Daddy went to Las Vegas with his friend Jay for a few days last week. Daddy really seemed to enjoy the trip. They saw a few shows (Daddy is still raving about the "Love" Beattles show), checked out the casinos, and of course gambled. Daddy learned there is more than one way to play Blackjack, and he's also rooting for the BearCats to make it to the BCS title game so he can win back some of the money he lost!
While Daddy was gone, Mommy kept busy so she didn't miss him too much. Monday night she took Uncle Aaron to dinner (Thai) before she drug him to the nutrition class for her childbirth classes. Overall, I think Uncle Aaron enjoyed it. Tuesday Mommy was on her own - she picked up a few gifts on the way home, then worked on helping us write all our thank you's for the showers. They are all written - and the last 2 are in the mail today. WHEW!!!
Wednesday and Thursday Mommy had dinner with friends, and really enjoyed catching up!
Mommy came down with a nasty cold on Friday, so she stayed in and ate some soup, did some laundry, and rested up.
Daddy flew back from Vegas late on Friday night, arriving back in Ohio early on Saturday morning. He visited with Tracy's mom for a bit, then took a very long nap (which he needed)! Daddy got home just before 10 Saturday night.
Mommy spent most of Saturday cleaning up around the house. She got everything cleaned except for the floors, tubs, and showers. She was pretty tired! She ran a few errands in the evening before Daddy got home too.
Sunday was a day of rest for everyone. Daddy was still recovering from his trip, Mommy from her cold and everything she did on Saturday. It was a nice relaxing day for all of us.
This past week has continued to be busy.
Mommy and Daddy went to the doctor on Monday morning for another ultrasound. We both cooperated this time, so it only took about 1/2 hour for the tech do do all the measurements for both of us. Mommy and Daddy couldn't believe how much we've grown in just 6 weeks! "Right" is weighing around 1 pound, 9 oz. and "Left" is at 1 pound, 12 oz. That's more than double what we were last time! Everything still seems to be going well, although the doctor was concerned that although we are growing, Mommy had lost a pound since our last visit 2 weeks ago. Mommy feels it's because she hasn't had much of an appetite with her cold, but is trying to do better about eating even if she isn't hungry.
"Right" still has it's head down, so Mommy is still hoping we can avoid a C-Section!
Monday night Mommy and Daddy had their 4th childbirth class. The teacher reviewed comfort options, as well as interventions (such as epidurals, pain shots, etc.) Lots of great information!
Tuesday night Daddy went to the Bengals stadium and gave blood, so it was another "resting" evening, as he didn't want to exert himself too much.
Wednesday was another night of getting things done around the house, while Thursday Mommy and Daddy went to Uncle Aaron's to check on Grandma Hart's computer. We think we are getting it back in order for her!
This weekend Mommy and Daddy celebrate their first wedding anniversary. They are planning a quiet weekend at Hocking Hills - more R&R for everyone! Hopefully they will get re-energized so that they can get some work done on the nursery next week.
That's all for now. Hope everyone has a great weekend! More updates to come!

Love,
Left and Right Hart
