Final Ultrasound

Yesterday was the last time I got to see Collin before we meet in person. He's so cute I can't wait to hold him. All the measurements, fluid, etc. were perfect. His heart rate was 131. To the best of their ability they estimated his current weight at 4 lb. 5 oz. I was very happy to hear that head is already down where it should be so we are locked and loaded and ready to rock and roll. Hannah and Jack always love seeing seeing Collin too. I think they were surprised how much he looks like an actual baby. About a week ago, Mommy's best friends (Amee, Ashlee and Madeline) celebrated Collin with a yummy a brunch at TAPS. I'm so glad we were able to get together and shower one more wolfpack member with love. We call my kids 'the bookends' because I have the oldest and youngest of the 10 with Jack being right in the middle at number 5. I love knowing my kids have best buddies to grow up with.

7 Months

Today marks 30 weeks. We are in 2017 and moving full steam ahead with Collin's arrival. This weekend is a 3 day weekend so I hope to get myself a little more organized regarding Collin's room. I know I have pretty much everything, it's just a matter of finding things and getting them cleaned up. Hannah and Jack grow more excited by the day. When I walk in the house from work, I am no longer the first that gets a hello. They both run and kiss my stomach and say "Hi baby. We missed you baby." Jack won't let me leave in the morning unless he's given you multiple kisses and hugs. Hannah is so curious this time around about pregnancy and babies and the birth. I laughed out loud as she and Jack were jumping on the trampoline and she attempted to describe breast feeding to him. She wants to be there when you are born so bad. If all works out I might just let her. We will see. I have transitioned to every two week doctor's appointments already. You seem to be healthy and growing strong. You are roughly 3 lbs. I passed my glucose test so praise hands, mommy can still eat sugar. 2 months to go, can't wait to see what you look like and have another little baby in the house.
