So many things have been going on at the Barreth house. My mother-in-law, Pam, and my brother Preston both had surgeries and have stayed or will stay at our house. My parents are here now and so it's just a flurry of activity around here. My sister, Stephanie, has two of her own kids- Clay and Chloe, and so she very generously passes on things that they don't play with anymore. My mom and dad this time brought up a little kitchen from them. What a blessing! I mean, this thing is AWESOME! I would have loved something like this as a kid and Gwen loves it already. My sister and I had an easy bake oven and I thought that was awesome as a kid. There are all kinds of plastic foods that go with it.. sushi rolls, hot dogs, asparagus... you name it! Here are a few pictures of Gwen enjoying her kitchen.
In other news, I had my first sonogram of the little baby #2 yesterday. They did an early sonogram to come up with the due date. With Gwen they told me a due date of May 31st and then when I had an ultrasound they backed it up to June 9th and she wasn't born until June 17th... so I guess I'm a little hard to predict. It was amazing to see that little baby in there moving around with arms and legs and I could see the fingers. Mom and Ben and Gwen were with me and we all heard the little heartbeat for the first time together. I have some pictures that I will try to have scanned and put up on here to share with you. I'm further along than I thought. According to the sonogram I'm almost 13 weeks... and I thought I was almost 11. So.. it looks like my due date will either be January 11th or the 16th. We'll see what the doctor says next time.

almost 13! That's great! How are you feeling? 14 weeks was the magic number for me.
What a great kitchen! that's like the super deluxe one! Don't you love handmedowns :)
Congratulations! 13w, already at the end of the first trimester...things really start changing quickly after that. But 13w is not at all early to have an u/s. You can see a sac at 5w, a heartbeat at 6w, and I've even seen movement at 8w, when it really starts to look like a baby. I'm sorry your mil and Preston have had to have surgeries. Hope everyone recovers quickly.

thanks ya'll! I'm feeling pretty good. I still get sick smelling meat cooking and if I don't eat often and small. Nothing severe though. I'm so thankful I'm almost out of the sick part though. :)
Isn't little Gwen precious. Before long she will be able to cook up something for her granny! I hope it's not tofu!
When do I get to see her again?
