Doctors Office

Today Landon and I went to the doctor to check-up on baby Skylar. I got weighed, my belly was measured, and the doc listened to his heartbeat.. she said everything looked great and told me that I am right on track for a December 4th baby!

When we listened to Skylar's heartbeat today and it's crazy what 1 month will do! His heartbeat is so strong and Loud now.. I guess that means he is growing and getting bigger! Good things! The doctor also showed us where his head, bottom and feet are in my belly. Skylar is higher in my stomach and he is laying diagonal. Oh my precious baby and his little personality already! The doctor also noticed that he was very active. She asked me if he is always like that? I replied, "yes".. hmmm are we going to have a bouncing baby boy?? I guess we will see!!

As I go into my 31st week I will now be going for check-up's every 2 weeks ... and starting November I will see the doctor every week!! Time is flying by as we prepare for our precious son Skylar. I am so thankful for these moments I experience with him in my belly! It's so special and I am reminded of how amazing our God is to place something so precious in my care! I cannot wait to meet him and see what he looks like!

For now I will keep loving these moments only me and Skylar share because in 9 weeks, they'll be gone!

Thank you Lord for precious babies... Thank you Lord for baby Skylar.

Almost There

I haven't been a very good "blogger". I apologize for not writing in a while. I guess, there has been a lot going on in the last three months! 1. We found out our precious baby is going to be a BOY! woohoo! 2. We moved to a new house. In other BIG new. Landon's Brother Justin was married on July 18, 2009! What an awesome celebration that was. He married a wonderful girl named Melanie! She is a research doctor/professor at a University down here! She is a wonderful Sister-in-law. Here are some pics from the wedding:

Baby News:
This week I am 30 Weeks pregnant! woohoo! 10 More weeks to go! Baby Skylar is about 15.7 inches long now, and weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). His eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after he's born, he'll keep his eyes closed for a good part of the day. When Skylar does open them, he'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means he can only make out objects a few inches from his face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)
here are pics of my growing belly:

"O LORD, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, you know it altogether. You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high; I cannot attain it."
Psalm 139..
