30 weeks

Well, this week is 30 weeks, I can't believe we are now less than 9 weeks away from meeting baby girl! I had a doctor's appt this week (the first of the 2 wk appts).
Some things to note:
  • Baby girl's heartbeat in the 140's
  • She continues to move a lot, definately a lot bigger now (and stronger), she seems to move more in the afternoons (when I sit and rest) and in the evenings. Then she moves a lot at night too.
  • Doctor says she is currently in breech position
  • I have gained a total of 14lbs. so far
  • I can definately tell a difference in the size of my belly from the last pic (4 weeks ago), some of my maternity shirts are getting too short!
  • Madilynn has been really sweet lately, she tells me almost daily, "Mommy your belly's getting big!" so funny - she has finally noticed. And I tell her it's because the baby is growing and getting bigger.
  • Madilynn sits with me in our big rocker/glider and tells me she wants to see the baby so she looks at my belly and puts her hand on it to feel it moving. She tells me that when "sister" comes out we will rock her, and I said we sure will. She seems to really be understanding!
  • I've signed Madilynn up for a big sister class at the hospital and I think she'll love it! (It'll be in August closer to baby's arrival)
  • Mommy and Daddy have re-decided on a name for baby girl...we've gone back to the one we had at the ultrasound appt. I think we are set! It's definately been different this time keeping it a secret, we aren't getting to bounce names off people and talk about it a lot.

And here's a good pic of Mommy and Madilynn before church on Sunday!

hey, my eyes are open!!

Wow, Miranda! You look great. I think I gained 14 pounds just knowing I was pregnant. :)
