The Belly Button


We finally spilled the beans to Jackson and told him there is a baby on the way. He is excited. He looks at the sonogram picture calling it "my baby" and naming all the parts. The best part is when he wants to "see" baby. He asks me to show him my belly and then he goes at it...he digs in my belly button to get the baby out. He really wants this little bean to get out and to get out through my belly button! Jackson also has a baby in his belly (Scott just loves this) and asked me to kiss his belly yesterday. So funny!

UPDATE: We had another sono today. All looked great. The baby had grown and was jumping around like crazy! It was difficult for the doctor to get a good pic because the baby was moving so much! We even saw little legs kicking. INCREDIBLE! I still have the tear so keep praying for healing. My doctor said it looks good, is far away from the baby, and will not hurt the baby. I still just have to take it easy not overdoing it.

Such a cute little belly. :)

Glad the sono went well. Sounds like this is going to be one healthy little baby. Hoping the tear will heal soon. Prayers coming your way!

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little boy. ...

The Cup

I walked into the kitchen and spotted a blue solo cup on the counter. The following conversation played out in my head: "Whose cup is this? Which kid took out yet another cup? Didn't I ask them to stop getting a new cup every time they needed a drink? What is wrong with these people? They obviously don't ever listen to me." In the midst of my frustration, I realized the cup was mine. Oopsies. Good thing I didn't speak those words aloud. I went on with my life and my to-do list leaving MY cup right where I found it. I am the grown-up and can leave my cup where ever my grown-up heart desires. I came back into the kitchen a little while later and saw the cup again. I completely forgot the cup was mine so I rehashed the above conversation in my head. I was baffled by who left that cup on the counter. And then I remembered it was me. Again. Y'all, I did this two more times throughout the night. It was like Groundhog's Day but I was the only one celebrat...

Baby on the Floor

Yesterday I was putting a couple of things in the closet for the baby of what is going to be the nursery. Jackson was helping me and asked me where the baby was going to live. I told him where and he was excited since the room is next to his. Later that night Scott and I asked him where the baby was going to sleep and he responded by telling us that the baby was going to sleep in his room. When I asked him where in his room he told me, "on the floor." Scott antagonized him telling him that the baby would not sleep in his room but in the nursery. Jackson got mad at him and yelled over and over again that the baby was sleeping in his room on the floor. Oh my...it starts already!
