A Few of My Favorite Things

The Belly Part II

We went out to dinner tonight on the harbor in Long Beach with our good friends Mercy and Danny. Mercy is also 5 months pregnant, so we took some pictures of the future moms!

The Belly

I know all things are relative . . . BUT this picture doesn't show just how huge I've gotten OR how huge I feel. I know I'm only going to get bigger . . .. Hopefully these pictures will help me to keep things in perspective as our baby continues to grow.

Baby Cooke's First Gift

Our baby received his first gift this week. I think it's adorable. I love that the stuffed animal is machine washable. The blue is our favorite color too. I just realized that all of our walls are painted blue . . . the accessories in our home are blue . . . blue is great.

Ok. I'd also like to mention that turning into a mom is so natural that you wouldn't believe it. I've already caught myself saying things like, "I already know he's a good boy." I certainly don't know what it's going to be like to be a mom, but I think I'm beginning to understand unconditional love in ways I didn't before. I LOVE our baby.

AFP

This is just a note of thanks to our heavenly father. Our AFP screening results were everything you would hope they would be. We have a 1/5,000 chance of Down's and a 1/10,000 chance of trisomy 3 (did I spell that wrong?). So, we're grateful and excited to share the positive result with friends and family.

Blessings and Peace
