38 Weeks

Today marks 38 weeks of pregnancy. Just 14 days to go! I had an ultrasound today to check the size of this little man to make sure we weren't approaching anything near or above his brother's birth weight (9lbs 15oz) since it might be impossible for me to deliver anything more. Good news is he's measuring in the 37th percentile at 6lbs 10oz. She was so surprised that she checked all the measurements 3 times, but she was certain. At this rate even at full term it's not likely I'd have a baby much over 8lbs. Very doable! I see my doctor tomorrow and then will know more about when baby will make his arrival!

36 Weeks

Here I am at 36 weeks 1 day. Saw the doctor today and everything still seems healthy, happy and fine. This baby doesn't seem nearly as big as Alex was (which I am INCREDIBLY grateful for). Next week we get to have an ultrasound to try and get a better measure on his size, but right now it doesn't seem like there's much to worry about. We are just incredibly anxious to meet him!

Pregnant Moms Can Have Fun Too!

Just another day at the park!

37 Days to D-Day

But pretty much any day is looking ok to me now!

Still Growing!

Bye-bye 2nd Trimester!

27 Weeks & 4 Days

On a hot, hot day at Boise Zoo I'm looking about as pregnant as ever. One more trimester to go and boy are we ready to see this baby! Now, if only we could choose a name!

It's Frank!

Here's our new sweet baby boy! We had a perfectly healthy report from his ultrasound this morning and are feeling so blessed with this new gift God has given us! We're so excited to meet him!
I will post better ultrasound pics later. We don't have a scanner so for now a picture of a picture is the best I can do!

"Frank"

For anyone who doesn't know "Frank" is what Alex is calling the new baby on the way. Alex is sure Frank is a boy and will not allow it to be called anything otherwise. We are set to find out Frank's gender next Tuesday (April 13). I set up a little poll for fun to see if people think it's "Frank" or "Frankie." Cast your vote and we'll see who's right next week!
