28 Weeks!

Here is my growing tummy. I am terrible at getting my picture taken - this was about try 15 - in all the others I have red eye. The only ones I didn't have it was the one Mike took of just my belly and the one that I purposely closed my eyes. You can't have red eye if they are closed, right? I know that is a fixable problem, but I don't have time to fuss with it - so this is what you get. I don't know if I just forgot how much babies move inside or if this baby is more active than my girls. She is all over the place - pushing out both sides at the same time. The girls think it is really fun to watch her move and see my tummy go crazy. It is so cute to hear them laugh and guess what she is doing and which body part is poking out. They already love her so much!

A few weeks ago we went to see a fantastic perinatologist, Dr. Belfort. He was very thorough and gave us the good news that this baby's heart looks good. He first had his Echo Tech run the machine while he watched and then he took over to double check. When this picture of her face came up the tech thought we needed it so she printed it for us. Dr. Belfort has diagnosed the heart defect Makenna had (TAPVR) in utero before and was very confident that everything on this baby looked good. We are counting our blessings. I think until I see her and know for sure, I will always have our Kenna memory in the back of my head, but it was a huge relief. Now we just need to find a name. I keep having dreams about not having a name for her. The most recent one was she was all dressed in her blessing outfit ready to be blessed with no name. It is a good thing we still have 12 weeks!
