Last night we had a beautiful baby girl. Actually beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen a cute newborn before, but she somehow managed to be perfect. She had the same red hair that I had when I was born, with an adorable little Bill nose and a little pout that made me cry. She was 9 pounds and 12 ounces. We called her Laura. The umbilical cord had managed to wrap around her neck four times, and she is now keeping her grandpa company in heaven. I wish we'd had a chance to share her with all of you. I know she is loved by you though you never got to meet her. Lots of love to you as well.

I didn't bother with week 32 pictures, as that is when I did photos with Ashley, which you all saw on facebook, I'm sure. Haven't grown much since, so this is a photoless post. In fact, I went to the dr on Monday and it turns out I've lost a couple of pounds in the last week. More importantly, Baby's head is down (very low down, actually, which should take some time off of labor), and ready to come out when told. This means that, though it could still be a while, it is likely that it will not be a late baby. Hope everybody is ready, we only have three and a half weeks to go!

Baby Bump Week 28

I realized the other day that it has been a while since I posted and it is time for some updated pictures! So I took some, but I keep forgetting to upload them to my computer. Maybe I will do that now. . .

Here they are!





You may notice that I am wearing the same shirt in the majority of these baby bump photos. This is what the books tell me I should do, in order that you may get a comparison that is as accurate as possible. I don't actually just wear the same shirt every day. Sometimes I wash it.

24 Weeks

I meant to post some pictures sooner, but with constant housesitting and a camera cord being left at home, it clearly didn't happen. Anyway, I am still at 24 weeks for another day, so these aren't actually late!



The obligatory heart photo.



Yes, I did take these pictures while at work. . .

20 Weeks

HALFWAY POINT!!

Shocking isn't it? We are now in the 20th week (of 40), and Baby has started to grow exponentially! I will share with you some photos to prove this.



Getting harder to see my toes. . . but they have not disappeared yet!

Christmas Ornaments

So cutest thing ever - Bill comes home today and says "I bought something for the baby!"





"Its very first Christmas ornament!"

We'll have to get the tree set up soon!

Ultrasound Pictures!

I had my second ultrasound yesterday, and though the ultrasound technician isn't allowed to tell me anything about the health of baby, it actually LOOKED like a baby this time, which I took as a good sign! So, without further ado, here are a few photos!



This (obviously) is a profile of Little. Hard to believe it is only the size of a mango!



Here is one little foot! How cute is that?! Don't worry, the other one was there too.



This picture is looking Baby right in the face. I think this is Bill's favourite, as it bears a striking resemblance to a Terminator. As amusing as this is, my baby does actually have skin on its face and is not created to be a killer.

Well those are some of my favourite photos. I could go all out and post some legs and strange indiscernible photos of kidneys or something, but I will leave it at that and get back to work! Enjoy!
