It's a banana bread kind of day

Since the weather this weekend has been not too stellar, Mer and I made banana bread today. And since we can't utilize our neighborhood pool because it's too cool, Greg and Mer are at the YMCA exercising and going to the pool there.

Here is my little helper. I love how excited she gets over things these days. Sometimes too excited...when things don't go her way. Yesterday she had a tantrum and she was sooooooo angry, she made herself throw up (in the car, on the car seat nonetheless).

The results. Yum...this was a new recipe I tried and I think it's my favorite recipe so far. I only used 6 tablespoons of butter instead of 8 and I substituted 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup of white sugar instead of 1 cup of white sugar. And I added a few chocolate chips.

Before going to the YMCA, Mer accessorized to her finest.
And an update on me. I'm 33.5 weeks right now. I go in for my 34 week appointment next week and I'm having a growth ultrasound since I measure small. I did with Meredith too. I'm looking forward to it since I know how my body carries babies at this point. The first time around with Meredith, part of me was worried something was wrong but not this time. But I am going to have them double check to make sure this is still a girl (even though I did see the money shot and it looked pretty conclusive that it was a girl from my last ultrasound). And I'm hoping to get a nice 3D picture again too.

It's funny because I hear a lot of pregnant women complain about the looks and comments strangers give them about their bellies being big. Well, I get the same comments and buggy eyes too, except for being too small. Whatevs...it doesn't bother me.

This is from last week at 32 weeks. I can't believe I only have about 6 more weeks to go before I meet this little girl :-)
