We just got back from the beach. What a nice and relaxing time we had. Mamie has really been active. I mean my belly has been doing some serious moving around. While we were at the beach we saw a couple of little bald headed babies and it got me so excited. I can't believe how close it is getting. I really think we are going to have a little baldy ourselves.
We took some pictures at the beach that I will post later. Silas would lift up my shirt and say "Mamie". I would say tell her hi and he would wave his sweet little hand and say "hi". I can't wait to see those two together.
We still have a lot to get done before she comes. Mrs. Karen aka Mimi is coming to paint the tree on the wall behind the crib sometime soon. I can't wait to see it finished. The drapes should be done soon and those are going to look adorable. Once I get it all put together I will take a picture for you all to see.
Here is what baby is doing this week.
Hello, Sarah!
By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb.

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah
