Well, I've never been a big "belly-shot" picture person, but I do regret not having a picture of how big my belly had gotten right before Grayson was born. So, here it is. It looks like a basketball, and kinda feels like one, too. Today, I am officially 39 weeks, and my C-section is scheduled for this Friday (39 weeks, 5 days). If he doesn't make an appearance before...
I feel lots of mixed emotions now... ready to not be pregnant any longer, ready for my real clothes, and most importantly, ready to sleep on my stomach again!! But, I have enjoyed being pregnant, and since this is probably the last time, I know I'll miss feeling the baby move and kick inside me. That is by far, one of the coolest things I've ever experienced. Truly a miracle!

That is by far, one of the coolest things I've ever experienced. Truly a miracle!I'm definitely nervous about how Grayson will handle not being an only child any longer, and how I'll do dividing my time between the two of them. I'm so excited to see what this little miracle baby looks like... it's so amazing what an answer to prayer his little life has already been. Hard to believe that just last August we were wondering if he was going to stay put until February... and he has. Praise the Lord!
We will try our best to post some pictures after his arrival. I'm going to try to take my computer to the hospital, as I figure I'll have more time to do a blog post there than when we arrive home! Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers!

Wow! That went really fast (for me!) You're going to do just fine as a mom to two. And soon, G. won't even remember what it was like before Carter came along. You look great. Praying for you for Friday!
