Amelia


Here is a belly shot we took last week. I can't believe that we only have 9 more weeks to go! I am so excited to meet our little Amelia. The next picture is from an ultrasound we had a couple of weeks ago(can you see her nose and lips?). The doctor was concerned that, because of where Amelia's umbilical cord was, that she wouldn't get all the nutrients that she needed to grow. At the ultra sound they did all sorts of measurements and said this is DEFINATLY a healthy baby. She already weighed 3 pounds! That put her in the 63 percentile on her size already! We were so relieved and happy. D and I were doing the math this weekend and if Amelia continues to grow at this rate I could have a 9 or 10 pound baby. Holy Cow! I think chunky babies are so adorable though. Emry is being so cute with my belly. She will rub it and give it kisses and whenever I ask her to say "amelia" all that comes out is "mia". I feel so blessed to be a mom. I know that there is no way that I could deserve these children, but I am so thankful to my heavenly father for sending them to me.

I'm excited to met Amelia too! I can't believe you only have 9 weeks, your belly is so small! The ultra sound is way cute too, isn't it amazing what technology can do.

It is amazing how much faster a second pregnancy goes when you are busy chasing a toddler. We have exciting things happening, Thanksgiving, Christmas and "Mia's" birthday. I love the name Amelia, but even more, I love Emry saying "Mia". When Amelia is born Emry will probably call her "My Mia". That has a cute sound to it. I can't wait to see Amelia, but mostly I want to see Emry with Amelia. How wonderful for both of them to have a best friend that is also a sister. Keep the updates coming. I love the pictures. love, Grandma
