Baby girl!!

To celebrate my 27th birthday we went and saw Billie at The Baby Connection once again for a sneak peak of our baby girl. Billie said she was nestled pretty low in my pelvis and her cord was in the way so unfortunately she wasn't able to capture the photos she wanted. She sent us out for a 15 minute walk in hopes that would get baby moving and maybe the cord placement would change but no such luck. Billie scheduled us for a repeat appointment two weeks later.



 
Two weeks later we go back and she is even lower in the pelvis and refused to move her arm out of the way. She was busy suckling on her wrist and fingers. Billie got the best shots she could. We love them! We are so excited to meet our baby girl!

Guacamole on the side!
So tasty! Wash down with a Dr.Pepper, yum!
