21 Week Picture


Okay! I know that I am not this big....yet. I am sure the camera adds not ten but maybe 20 pounds. I guess the shirt made me look so big. Enjoy the laugh! This picture was also taken at school.

4 1/2 Month Picture


This picture was taken several weeks back at school. I finally got it downloaded. Those of you who know me well know that I can not smile on demand. Just over look the face and hair. The main point of the picture is to document the belly growth.

It's A........





















We had our 20 week ultrasound this week. We got a great report on the baby. The baby seems to be growing on schedule. We did not find out the sex of the baby. You will just have to wait until he or she graces us with his or her presences. We were told however that the baby is very active. Oh what we have to look forward to.
I am still very small to be 5 months but I am looking on the bright side. The baby is healthy and less weight to loose after the baby gets here.
He said, it was very interesting. I enjoyed watching the baby move around. I swear last time I saw a pensi....no I am thinking I saw a girl. Who knows?
She said, I am so happy the baby is healthy. God does answer prayers. I do not think I have every prayed so much about one thing. This whole experience has brought John and I so much closer. I can only imagine what our family will be like once this little angel gets here.

41/2 Month Doctor's Appt.




Where do I begin? We had a doctor's appointment on Friday. We thought it was just going to be a routine checkup but it turned out to be much more. We saw a wonderful doctor. We heard a very strong and loud heart beat however the doctor was very concerned about the size of my stomach. First I had not gained any weight and second I was not measuring at 4 1/2 months. He was concerned the sack around the baby was not big enough. He asked us to go back to the waiting area and he would call us back again to do an ultrasound. Needless to say, the weight was terrible. As it turned out the baby was fine. The sack appeared fine and the baby's abdomen measured 18 weeks. The doctor assured us everything was fine. Wow! We were so relieved. Thank you Lord for having your hands around our little baby. The great thing about the doctor's visit is first we got to see the baby again, second we know the baby is developing on schedule, and third we got two new pictures of the baby. The first picture is of the baby waving. The second picture is a little hard to see but it is a picture of the baby's face. If you look closely, you will see two little eyes, a nose, and a mouth. We go back for another ultrasound in two weeks.


He said, "The wait was terrible... probably the worst thing I have ever been through. I was so glad things are fine. See Caroline I told you so.:


She said, "Of course I was thinking of all the terrible things that could be wrong. I am thankful I have John to keep me positive."
