28 Weeks

Ok, people have been asking for a very pregnant me and belly shot (or was it just the belly shot?)… well, here you go :) I guess I am actually 29 weeks now, but close enough. I am tired and ready for the baby to be here. I move at a turtle’s pace and ache everywhere. I used to run 20 miles a week, now I can barely walk around the block without sciatic, belly and back pain. Fun times…only a few more weeks to go! :)

Praise God, the baby is doing well thus far. Heart rates have been good at Dr. appointments and the earlier ultrasounds have all been normal. He/she moves a lot! It’s like a dance party in my belly. Whether I’m walking, sitting, standing or laying down...lots of movement. Pretty sure more than Ada moved around.

My little helper was great. She took the pictures of me via the iPad/camera on tri-pod and I think they turned out pretty good. The iPad is a little cumbersome to try to hold yourself, but it’s nice to see the image before snapping away. Ada might be a budding photographer…or she will resent me for life with all the pictures I make her take :)

It was very muddy down by the river, we both slipped a few times and I almost ate it (thankfully no one saw it)! Ada had fun playing in the muddy sand before heading home :) It was also a fairly warm afternoon that day (like 60 degrees), unusual for January.
