7 month belly

today i'm 28 weeks!! three months left, i can't believe how fast it's gone. i had an ultrasound today and the baby is still a girl. she's healthy and my placenta is all good too. no more worries (hopefully). i had a great "mommy moment" today. as i was standing by jills high chair, she reached out and placed her sweet hand on my belly. she just held her hand there for quiet a few seconds, looked up at me, smiled and then went back to eating. she has no clue that a baby is in there. i was having a bit of anxiety about my ultrasound today and she just put me at ease. is that funny...for me to think that she, somehow knew what i needed? anyway...here's my baby bump: here's jills baby bump:
jill has learned to "smile" when the camera is on her. here's what i get almost every time now:

on another note:
after the ultrasound jeff wanted to go fishing. we found a pond and got out to find some fish. jill walked, actually ran, right up to the waters edge and kept going. had it not been for the sweet little hand i was holding, she would have ended up in the water. my jillian is NOT scared of water, which makes me scared to death. therefore, if you have a pool in your backyard, sorry, no play dates at your house.

You have to be the cutest pregnant lady ever! I'm glad everything looked good in the ultrasound. It's funny how they just seem to know what we need - Ky always gives me kisses when I need them the most. I wish he were more like Jill with the picture thing, he likes to smile AFTER I take the picture, so I just get very confused looks in my pics of him!

I have to say, you both are just glowing with your baby bumps. I want give Jill a big raspberry kiss on that belly. I love that she lets me kiss her on the cheeks. She looks at me like,"yeah keep on kissin'!" Love you guys!!!

Jill looks like she is wearing make up in the 2nd picture, and I can't believe you have a belly now. It seemed like just yesterday when you were here with NOTHING! It just seems un-real that you are pregnant again.. I don't know why, but I don't think of you as prego for some reasaon!

Oh dear Leesh, you look like I did when I was 4 months along. I would say it is not fair but I have no complaints because I was so blessed with good health and healthy babies and other nice things. I was very happy to have been brought up that motherhood is beautiful no matter how "big" you get. And thank goodness that daddy was also. The word fat was never used and there were never any regrets. Thank you for bringing another blessed baby into our family. We love you so much and your excitement for motherhood is a beautiful gift.

BTW, that face in the bottom picture is precious.

What a cute pregnant lady you are! I love those tender moments, my two seem very tuned in to my needs a lot of the time and come to my aid and comfort when I need it- aren't they such incredible blessings in our lives?!

You are so cute! People would kill to look that cute at 7 months! You are always so cute, and that Jill, a doll!

Sar said...

You're the cutest prego lady I know. And Jill's got the cutest baby bump too!

Mrs. Taylor! You look so beautiful, and so does your little family!!! I am proud of you! Today, 3-27, is one day away from my illicit "due date". I work tonight and i will have an appointment in the morning... where i will ask to be induced... i just can't take this anymore. It is like having a wiggling package on your doorstep that you can't open, and you don't know when you will be able to. Anyway, i love you sister, and I bless you!

Hi Alisha!

It's been so long! I am so happy for you and your growing family! Your daughter is absolutely beautiful & I'm sure this next one will be as well.

I just had a baby in January - she is so much fun; isn't motherhood the greatest?
