Austin has been very busy this summer. We have a new nanny who he adores...as in Allen and I do not rate at all when she is around. It makes me happy to see him so attached to someone so sweet. He is going to miss her when she goes back to college.
He has gone to camp at his school for the past six weeks and loved it. We can't believe how much he has changed since going. At his 18 month check up, he was only saying mama, dada, and baby. He now says ice, trash, cheese, uh oh, bath, more, olivia, tiki (our dog's nickname), choo choo, book, bye bye, hi, etc. he knows so much more than he can verbalize.
He loves his new room. He was never phased by Jackson's crib going up in his old room, thank goodness. The baby will be here in a week! Austin does not know what is about to hit him, but I pray the transition is easy. I am stressing out about being away from him. I have only been away from him at night the night before Jackson died and last week when I was in the hospital for dehydration. I know Allen will take good care of him. He is all about "my dada", as he calls him. He loves reading books with pictures of babies in them. He is not too into the real life thing, and a few weeks ago, I was holding my friend's baby he was not too excited!
The new baby is measuring 90th percentile and about 2 weeks ahead. My doctor is on vacation until next Thursday, so I am hoping he/she stays put! We can't wait to meet this baby. Allen thinks it is a girl, and I think it is a boy. We will be happy with whatever we are blessed with.
