baby & me.

today we got to see little baby again.

our 9th, 10th? ultrasound.

we've seen this baby lots.

and no.

we haven't accidentally ever seen any parts.

we're pretty good about closing our eyes when they say "dont look"

baby is measuring big and cute.

another big headed baby.

why do our kids insist on having heads in the 90 percentile?

we didn't get any pictures b/c baby's face is too low down to see.

we did see some cute little fat rolls.

how amazing is that?

baby measures at 5 lbs 12 oz and has rolls?!

5 more weeks and baby is already almost 6 lbs?

yikes.a.bee.

which in turn brings me to this picture...

all my babys at 34 weeks.

BIG!!!

this baby is growing good

and pushing on me

all.the time.

we are praying really really really hard

that this little one comes earlier

rather than later.

lane was born at 42 weeks and gage at 41 weeks.

my history of going before my due date is low, as in zero.

in the past, i've been ok with that.

but this baby is pushing on my gallbladder.

like, foot on the gallbladder.

and as of today, there are still some pretty big serious stones in there...

that baby likes to kick.

so, we're crossing our fingers this little baby comes out sooner...

ON IT'S OWN!

i saw this necklace earlier

and that pretty much describes exactly how i feel.

you are worth it ALL little baby.

you are worth this crazy diet i'm on.

worth waiting to have surgery,

even when the attacks are "worse" than natural childbirth.

and i'm serious when i say that.

having 2 babies naturally

was much better than a dumb gallbladder attack.

you little baby are worth,

all the crazy surprises that have come with this pregnancy thus far.

from the very beginning

to now still.

with each passing day, we're getting more excited to see you.

nearly everyday vance hears me say,

"i can't wait to hold this baby in my arms."

you are worth it all!
