SIx Months (About 28 Weeks)

Here I am at about six months! Only twelve weeks to go! Our baby girl is growing like crazy! She is already over 2 pounds and over 14 inches long.... and it shows! I am stretching and stretching! She moves all of the time and Jason has finally been able to feel her kick and even see her move through my tummy one night when she was very active. Amazingly enough I still feel really good! I have managed to stay on track with exercising 4-5 days a week, and I think that has helped me a lot.

 I cannot believe how fast time is going by. When I think back six months ago it is amazing to me how our little girl has already changed me so much. My thoughts have gone from what will we do this weekend?...what kind of wine should I order with dinner?...where should we go on out next vacations? To now worrying about what kind of diapers should I buy? What kind of car seat should we get? Will I get stretch Marks? Can I make through delivery? Will I tear? What will she look like? Will she be healthy? What will it be like when we bring her home? Will we ever sleep normal again? ...and those are only a few of the thoughts that I have! HA!

Jason and I have had so much going on this past month...My grandma passed away, and I spent a weekend in Iowa laying her to rest. I now have a rocker in the nursery from her, and it means so much to me that there is a physical piece of her here with us. We have been working on the nursery and I will post pictures when it is all done. Two of our closest couple friends got married this past month, and it was so fun watching them on their happy day. Jason's Dad suffered a heart attack a couple weeks ago and by a miracle from God has pulled through and we have moved him back up to Indiana. He is doing much better and shows improvement everyday and we thank God he is still with us and continue to pray for further healing. Needless to say...we have been BUSY!!!

We now have twelve weeks to finalize plans for our baby girl and we are super excited! We are also looking forward to the THREE baby showers that are coming up in the next few month! Below are a few pics from Iowa and wedding we attended.

Stay tuned for the baby bump!!! It gets bigger everyday!
