Tomorrow marks the four week mark until we meet our precious little bundle #3. I can't believe how fast this time has gone by. So fast that when I sit down to think about it, I still haven't taken one single picture of my belly for the blog and scrapbook. Sometimes I wonder why, but then I realize I am always the one taking the pictures and I can't seem to get a good shot. Hopefully this isn't insight for what it will be like picture wise for when the baby arrives. People always say you have tons of pictures for the first baby and then it goes down hill from there. Connor's baby book is jam packed, Mara's is half full and I hope the next one gets to at least half full. I am just thankful for the blog, because at the end of each year when I go to print my blog at least every important detail is down on paper and I can see all the pictures in one book to see how much the kids have grown.
Pregnancy details: Week 34 and 5 days
Today I took the kids with me to my doctor appointment and they got to hear the baby's heartbeat. I am planning to take them with me up until the end so they can understand that the baby is coming very soon. The kids asked the doctor what she was doing and if she knew if the baby was a boy or a girl. Mara sat in the room with her fingers in her ears. I have no idea why, but I guess she was anticipating a very loud noise when the heartbeat was heard. I told her it was okay that the beating wasn't that loud and to listen to your brother or sister is very special so she took her fingers out and was excited to hear the thumping. When Dr. A measured my belly she got very concerned and said, "doctor, what are you doing to Mommy, are you done yet" She is very protective of me and if she sees me getting upset or crying she gets very nervous and starts crying and says Mommy please don't cry. I try to tell her that it is okay, but I know she gets scared and I try very hard to always keep a big smile on around her. The baby is still transverse breech which is why I can't sleep at night or get comfortable. I am scheduled anyway for a csection so the position of the baby really doesn't matter. I just have constant pushing under my ribs and never ending heartburn. I go back to the doctor in two weeks and then go every week. November 12th will be here before I know it and we can't wait to meet our new addition.

Is it NOT allowed to post this WITHOUT a belly pose!!!! LOL I just might have to call Con boy today and ask him to take a picture of his mommy for me! :) It's been 2 weeks after all since I've seen that precious belly!!
I hear ya about YOU being the photographer and not getting any shots of yourself. Sometimes I think our girls are going to grow up thinking that their Daddy is the only one who did fun spontaneous things with them because I take the pictures of him doing them! Sorry, I didn't mean to go off on that...
We're so excited to meet Baby Sprout and we wish you THE BEST while in the hospital! Please know I'm here if you need anything!! I have two jars of tums if you need those! ;)
I love you Kelly!!! You're a great Momma and that Baby is very blessed to be born into such a wonderful family who is going to love him or her to pieces!!!XOXO
