At my last doctors appt our little girl was measuring 3-4 weeks bigger that normal. So.... either we are having a big baby (which is a possibility because we were big and we are both tall) or she will be coming early (yikes!). Either way we have been enjoying the journey of pregnancy and having our laughs along the way. Jordan has been more than amused with my morphing stomach. You can see my stomach jump when she kicks (she is quite the kicker). We have also been faced with the reality that we are going to be parents responsible for raising this little life into a responsible, God fearing adult. Jordan is terrified with the thought of having a teenage daughter. He asked me if we could just keep her in my stomach to keep her safe. We are both first born in our families and are also realizing that our parents hadn't a clue how to raise a kid either when we came around, but...we both turned out okay I guess ;). The only thing I think we know how to do is pray and do our best to raise our baby girl in the word. The picture is from me at 5 1/2 months; I am about 7 months right now!

Oh my friend you are going to be such amazing parents! And yes, you both turned out far more than okay-some of the most wonderful people I know, and I couldn't ask for a better friend than you! I am dying to see you! And I can't believe that the next time I see you you will have a little one!!!!! Wow!!! I am encouraged in your faithfulness towards the Lord in this! I know it isn't easy but he will never leave you!
