Maternity Pictures {35 weeks}

Last pregnancy!  Almost to the end!

I have never done maternity pictures before.  I was so overweight and sick at the end with Grace that it didn't seem to make sense.

And I gained so much weight while pregnant with Kyler that I don't think it would have looked good.

This was my last chance to capture the beauty of a child being carried inside me.  Also, this is my thinnest pregnancy so you can actually see that I have a baby belly bump instead of just looking fat!!!

We went down to Sunken Gardens this morning and I just had Dustin snap a few pictures with our nice DSLR camera.  I'm not really into paying people a bunch of money for something we can do ourselves. :)

Here are my favorites.  I'm glad we did it!

And this last one we did at home, more of a silhouette so I can see and remember down the road just how big my belly has gotten!  I'm sure it will grow a little more in the next couple weeks but don't want to risk missing it in case I go into labor before my due date! *fingers crossed*

Grace 6 year checkup

We had Grace's 6 year doctor appointment this morning.  It's really more of a formality at this point since there aren't shots for awhile and they are just looking at her height/weight, growth, and making sure nothing is wrong.

Here are Grace's 6 year stats:

Height:  48.2 inches--88th percentile
Weight:  48.2 pounds--69th percentile
BMI:  14.93--50th percentile
BP:  82/58
Pulse:  82

No concerns and she is getting even taller on the growth charts.  Glad to see she is getting some height!  I hope it sticks and she doesn't just stop and stay short!  Doctor was impressed with her and everything is great!

Grace's 6th birthday

Someone turned 6!!!!

Grace wanted her party at Lost in Fun again this year and I happily obliged since that meant I had to do very little prep work.  Being 8 months pregnant, I didn't want to have to do too much!

Grace also wanted a basketball cake which again, easy peasy!

Most all of our family was able to be there to help this little girl celebrate turning six!  We had her party on Sunday, May 18th.

Kids having fun!  I wish I had gotten a picture with all of the cousins who all came to party!

33 1/2

Today marks 33 weeks, 4 days in this pregnancy.  I've had lots of people comment on how I have all of a sudden popped!  I agree.....these last couple weeks have really grown me!  And I definitely feel it.  I feel so stretched and sore and can't believe I have another 3 1/2 to 7 1/2 weeks to go!

If you look back a couple of posts there is a picture of me 3 weeks ago.  Can't believe the change!
