I have a funny Caroline story from the weekend. First of all the child is finally sleeping through the night and it is WONDERFUL. She sleeps until between 7 - 8 am and that makes everyone in the Silverio house very happy. Well, Sunday morning around 7:50am I hear her little "mommy" calls so I get up and head to her room. I open the door and pull open the curtains to let some light in and what do I find - a naked little Caroline. She had taken off her pj's and her wet diaper. It was such a shock. She has never done this before and believe me those pj's are not easy to get off. She kindly handed me her wet diaper and then lifted her arms to be picked up out of her crib. I took her to her dad just as I had found her so that he could see what she had done. It was very sweet and it was so cozy to pick up her warm little naked body and have her cuddled next to me. Thankfully I did not find her the same way this morning - I was a little worried that she has found a new game. Hopefully it won't happen often and hopefully I won't find a crib with pee or poo after her diaper has come off. Surprisingly she has not climed out of her crib yet - I am so surprised that she has not. I'm sure that day is coming.
I had a doctor's appointment last Thursday and the results were not so good. My blood pressure is high and the doctor believes I am in the early stages of preeclampsia. This is not good for me or for Gabriella. The only way to get rid of it is to deliver the baby. I'm in my 30th week this week and the doctor would like to get me to 36 weeks before delivering Gabriella. I'm not there yet but I may be looking at bed rest in the near future. I can't imagine this with a 21 month old running our house. We will make it work, I will do whatever I have to to keep me and Gabby healthy and safe until she is ready to come into this world. I have another appointment on Thursday and am checking my blood pressure daily - it has been better the last couple of days. I'm taking it easy and trying to rest as much as I can. Junior's mom was planning to come out on Feb 5th but is ready to come as soon as we need here. I think the date is changing to next Monday Jan 19th. It will be a huge help to have her here 24/7 and she will make sure that I am resting.
We are almost done with Gabriella's room. Dad and Kathy were here all weekend working on the curtains and other parts of the room. We hope to have it finished by next Wednesday and I will post pictures once it is all together. Her bedding is supposed to be in tomorrow. I'm so excited - I love her room.
Here is a cute pic of Caroline with her cousin Kylie this weekend. Caroline loves her new jeep. She has a huge smile on her face whenever she is in it and she loves to drive people around - she feels like such a big girl. The scary thing is that before I know it she will be 16 and this will be real!
