I love to play with the background!!!

Thank you to "Cutest Blog on the Block" for putting free backgrounds on your site! It makes me happy!!!

Okay, so the doctor's appointment went well! Here are her stats:
*
Weight: approximately 4 lbs
Length: approximately 17 inches
Position: definitely head down
*
The doctor said it is a little soon for her to be head down, but my pain is indicative of a head down position. I have officially gained an appropriate amount of weight, and did not get reprimanded as I thought I was going to! Yay!!! Due date still at the 23rd, but possible induction set for the 18th of March.

We go to our Childbirth Prep class on Saturday, which will be interesting! It will be so much fun! Love to everyone and I promise I will be a better picture taker this week, hopefully!

Update

Okay... sorry for the lack of Blogging! Just a quick update because I have a doctor's appointment in an hour. I will write more when that is done... Anyway, here is a rundown:


1) Baby doing great! I think she is really getting big and she is head down ready to go... I am only guessing because of where my pain is. I am not complaining! The reward of a beautiful, healthy baby girl is well worth any pain!

2) Justin is working hard! He is a phenomenal husband that provides for his family on a daily basis! He is supportive in every way... BTW... he massages my feet EVERY NIGHT!!!!!! So wonderful!

3) Me... I am great! I love being pregnant and feeling every move and hiccup! I am getting tired, sort of like I did in the first trimester and I have pain in my hips and legs, BUT nothing in this world could make me rush this or wish it over! It is an incredible feeling to grow a baby! 

4) The family is great! Everyone is doing well! Thank the Good Lord every day!!!!!!!!!!

Now I am off to the doctor so she can tell me that I am gaining weight too fast, and I am going to tell her that I am watching EVERYTHING that goes into my mouth and getting on the elliptical nearly everyday. I worry about my weight when I am not pregnant, and I am tired of doing it while I am. I am eating better than I ever have, I feel fantastic, and the baby is growing just fine! I cannot help the fact that my body saves food like there is not going to be any more tomorrow! I don't feel huge, but the scale says otherwise... like I said before... I am not going to worry about it for the last 2 months! I am not going to go hog wild, but I know that my brother will graciously help me lose the weight when I am done!

Love to all! I will have more pictures later!
