Baby Face: 24 Weeks

Here are a couple of pictures from our 24 week appointment with MFM (maternal fetal medicine). I can hardly believe that we are already 26 weeks along with this little peanut. Baby girl is active and healthy, but being monitored closely for IUGR.  I'm carrying her on my left side (carried Segen on my right) and she's already getting close to my rib cage with those little kicks of hers!  Feeling blessed beyond belief.

She wanted to have her little hand up by her face for all of the picutres.

You can see her profile on the far left side of the image (smushed against the placenta...fun!).

Giving everyone a happy "thumbs up."

Pinch Me

We just found out that we are expecting a little GIRL at the end of November.  I'm amazed, awed and totally in love with the thought that our precious Segen is going to be a big brother. Bring on the pink!

Trains...and a TWO year-old

Our resident train/truck/construction-aficionado turned 2 (gasp!) on June 16th. 

Happy 2nd Birthday, Segen!

Part of the Journey

"Even the saddest things can become, once we have made peace with them, a source of
wisdom and strength for the journey that still lies ahead."

Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. 

 Now I know in part; then I shall know fully...
