Milk does a body good!

7 weeks ago when I went to the doctor Jack didn't even weigh 2 lbs and the doctor was telling me to eat more. So I decided to start drinking 3 glasses of milk a day and today he weighs over 4 pounds! Oh yeah and he has a huge head and Josh and our doctor thinks it is so funny! Everything else looked good his length is normal and they hooked me to a machine and monitored his heart for 20 min and his heart rate was 150 to 160 beats per minute. The picture he gave us today isn't very good but I'm posting it anyway. It is a straight on view of his face but the only thing I can make out is the one eye. lolol

29 1/2 weeks. I think my belly doubled last week! lolol

Welcome to Europe!!!

A day at the lake!

Yesterday We decided to go to a lake that is an hour away. I wish we would have found it earlier in the year because we had so much fun and the water was perfect! we swam and laid out all day. I'm hoping that the weather stays nice so we can go again. It has rained all summer so it has been nice having a few weeks of sunshine. i just wish I would have thought to put sun screen on cause I got really burnt!



This is our neighbors daughter Madison who we absolutely love! When we first got there Josh was
playing in the sand with her, it was so cute, but then all the little kids started playing with her so he came and laid out with us girls.

26 weeks

Today I went for my 26 week check up and everything looked good. I love going to the doctor over here cause I learn so much about my baby at every one. Today during the ultra sound the doctor was checking the blood flow in the umbilical cord and the blood vessels. I actually saw my baby's blood flowing through the vessels. It was awesome. He looked good. Yes, it is still a he! The doctor said his head is big, I guess he gets that from his daddy, lolol but everything else looked good. He is the right length and his heart beat was 147. He didn't tell me his weight but he didn't comment on it either so i am taking that as a good sign. We didn't think we were going to get a 3d shot of him cause he had his butt to us but then he turned and we got a shot. Those are his hands in front of his chin. I'm not sure what I think of these 3d ultra sounds. Personally I think they are creepy but my doctor loves them and this is the only picture he gave me today.
