Baby Blain is healthy and BIG!! (28 weeks)

I was smiling and the lady just missed it when she printed my picture. You can catch a glimpse of a smile here. :)

Look closely and you can see that my eye is open. The black dot in the center is my iris.

This picture was taken right before I put my hands in front of my face. I'm not so sure I like all of that poking around on my mommy's belly.

Here I am all snuggled in for a nice nap... which I do mostly during the day. I like to be awake at night, just like my daddy. Notice how chubby I am getting.

Notes from mom: Our 28 week ultrasound was today. The baby is absolutely perfect and beautiful. He weighs approximately 2lbs. & 15oz!!! Can we say big baby? The technician said "you have a chubby baby here." That was music to my ears. I love knowing that he is healthy. She also noted that he has some pretty significant hair on his little head. :)

I am making great progress. Bedrest works people!! The dr. still wants me to "do nothing" for the next month at least (those were his words). I am an old pro at doing nothing. I am just happy to know that things are moving in the right direction.

Merry Christmas...God is good and full of miracles.

And it shook when she laughed like a bowl full of jelly!!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Like the title of this posting? I saw my brother and his fiance this weekend and they loved to watch me laugh, because my entire belly shakes. It is really funny. Here are some pictures of my belly. I am almost 27 weeks and all is well.

This one is my favorite!! We are so excited about Phillip's tummy...heehee. Just fun to switch roles.

26 Weeks Tomorrow!

I had another Dr.'s appointment today and had to do the dreaded glucose tolerance test. YUCK!! Surprisingly, it wasn't that bad. I just felt like I was back in the beginning stages of pregnancy and NAUSEOUS!! After we left and grabbed a juicy hamburger, I was feeling much better. The doc says that everything is still going very well. My BIG belly is actually measuring right on track. Lots of people say that I look much bigger than 6 months pregnant. Dr. says they just aren't used to the new me. It is kinda funny to see my stick arms and legs (that have not gained an ounce) with this big jolly belly in the middle. Heehee! Blain is doing fantastic. His heartbeat sounded so strong this time. Dr. said it sounds stronger the bigger it gets. It was a thud, thud, thud; instead of whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. I can see and feel even the slightest movements. It is so neat to watch my belly move. I am loving every second of being pregnant. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and wish you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS.
