31 Week Ultrasound

Saturday we got to see baby Sarah one more time before she is here. The 4D ultrasound is so detailed. We saw her frown, smile, stick out her bottom lip, and open her eyes! Seeing her open her eyes was a little freaky but still really neat. It's so amazing to see her eyelashes, eyebrows, toenails, and even a little bit of peach fuzz on her head. I can't tell if she looks like Hannah or Micah but she was sticking out her bottom lip which Hannah used to do all the time. The ultrasound tech said she's weighs about 4lbs 6oz which seems a little big to me but she said it was about average. I just don't want her to be 9lbs!

Profile of her pretty little face. You can even see her eyelashes and eyebrows.

You can see the toenail on her big toe in this picture.....





Here she is looking at us


Here she is smiling



In this one you can see the tips of her fingers



Here she is with her knee bent and her hand over it.


Me at 31 weeks! Sometimes I still don't feel very big but then I see a picture! I still can't believe I have 8 more weeks to go. Maybe it will be less....a week or so early would be nice. I'm feeling pretty good other than the normal third trimester complaints. I have heartburn all the time! Even drinking water seems to give me heartburn especially if I try to lay down after drinking it. I'm still working...which is another story for another time. I only have two more short trips left and them I'm done until December! I can't wait...I am so ready to be home.

Third trimester....the final strech!

The third and final trimester! I can't believe it. It seems like the first few weeks go by so slow and now I can't even keep track of what week I'm in. Good thing for the ticker on my blog! I'm really trying to enjoy these last weeks while I have her all to myself. Soon enough it will be sleepless nights and trying to pry her away from Hannah. I'll be lucky if I get to hold my own baby! Here are the pictures from my ultrasound at 27 weeks. As you can tell from the second picture she is still a girl. I can't believe how good the 4D picture is. You can really tell what she looks like! In the post below I put up the video that Lisa took at the ultrasound.






New belly pictures. The first one is me at 27 weeks and the last three are 28 weeks.

Baby Sarah

What a difference a week makes!

What a difference a week makes! This is what it looked like last Sunday........





Today it's a beautiful sunny 75 degrees. The weather here can be pretty crazy sometimes. Of course I had to work in that crazy weather. The Atlanta airport or AirTran for that matter is not prepared to handle this type of weather. So needless to say there were about 150 cancleations with just our airline and pretty much outright chaos. Regardless Hannah and Micah loved it. School was closed on Monday so they got a day off. The snow even stuck around for several days...the last of it just melted two days ago.

Double digits...and not just in my weight gain!

My ticker now says 98 days.....whoo hoo! Philip swears I won't last that long though. I'm starting to think he may be right. I'm feeling huge and uncomfortable but I still have three more months to go! Working until 34 weeks was just a big dream I guess. I'm going to finish out this month and then probably do office work in March. Then in April I can get my vacation and sick days paid out. When I'm at work people are constantly asking me how much longer I plan to fly, when I'm due, and all kinds of other questions. It's not just the passengers either. Other flight attendants ask me the same questions too...kind of like "hint, hint" isn't it time to quit?! Guess I should expect it at this point. Here's my 24 week picture....


Lisa, me and Brandi. Lisa's 10 weeks and in her first trimester. I'm 25 weeks and in my second trimester. Brandi is 30 weeks in her third trimester.

Micah's 6th Birthday

Micah's Birthday was a couple weeks ago but of course I'm just getting around to posting about it. I attempted a skateboard cake which I think turned out pretty good. My neighbor Jeannie made the ramp for me. The hardest part was trying to cover it with the fondant.

Baby's room

Philip and I bought the crib last week! I couldn't wait to put it together....I'm so impatient. Plus I had to see what the bedding would look like! Hannah and Micah are great helpers so it went pretty well. Lisa and Jeannie came over later to help with the changing table. There are still some finishing touches that the room needs but I've still got plenty of time for that!
