"Good Luck With That One"

Hello family and friends!!

We were able to see Abby again yesterday! This time it was with the 3D/4D ultrasound! It was pretty cool. The picture was so clear!

Unfortunately, Abby is either stubborn, shy, or was in no mood to take a photograph. We spent all 30 minutes trying to get a good face picture. She's in love with her arms and hands though. The entire time we got to see her she had her arm across her face. So we didn't get a great picture...I guess she just wants us to wait until September.

Here's Abby with her hand on her forehead.

There's that darn arm again!!

Here's our shy Abby using her arm to block her face.

This look is courtesy of her mother. She's not very happy at all to be disturbed during her nap!!


In this picture she's using her thumb to block out the noise.

So now she doesn't hear or see us!

The ultrasound tech actually said to us as we were leaving the office "Good luck with that one!". Haha! Well at least Abby earns her stubbornness honestly.

Even though the pictures didn't turn out as well as we were anticipating it was still a very cool experience. I can't wait to see her all the time. We're only 13 weeks away. I can't believe how quickly the time flies.

As for me I'm doing well. I had my Glucose Test done yesterday before the ultrasound. This is the test to make sure I haven't developed Gestational Diabetes. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I figured the easiest way to get the drink down was to chug it and that's just what I did. The quicker I drank it the quicker it was all over with. I will get my test results back on Monday. So pray that it comes back low and I don't have to do the 3 hour test!!

Josh took some pictures of my belly. It is getting big. We are having fun though feeling and watching Abby kick/move. When she's active she's all over the place. We get quite the reaction when Josh talks to her though. She loves the sound of her daddy's voice.



Week 26!

We also had new carpet installed in the nursery. It made a world of difference. Now we just need to put somethings on the walls and for Abigayle to get here and we're set!!

This pregnancy has been such a pleasure for me. I am so happy to have had such an easy 26 weeks. We just hope that it continues to go as well for the next 13 weeks. Please keep the three of us in your thoughts and prayers. I only have one more 4 week visit and then we're set on every 2 weeks! So hopefully we'll have more updates on Abby and myself.

We love you all and hope that this finds you all in great health!!

Kristen, Josh, and Abigayle

The pictures really are amazing technology. But it just makes me want to hold her in my arms, instead of look at pictures. I know that is exactly how mommy and daddy feel!

The pictures are great, amazing what they can do now. I was looking at the pictures of you and wow what a difference 4 weeks makes, she is really growing now. You look radiant and just beaming.

Kris - you look amazing!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you, Josh and little baby Abby. She is absolutly beautiful.

I think it's a safe bet to say that Abby wasn't being shy during the ultrasound...I don't think it's possible for her to have even an ounce of shyness considering her parents' peronalities:) But it looks like she definitely inherited your dislike of being woken up while napping!

Can't wait to meet her, and can't wait to see you guys in a few weeks!
