Baby Boy Ballou...

...ok, this is not funny anymore. Today our little one is supposed to be born but it doesn't seem that he is the slightest little bit in the mood for coming out. Any suggestions what might help to tell him that he is not paying his rent anymore?

Baby Boy Ballou...

...is getting heavy and strong. We pray for him every day and we know he is held tightly in God's arms (or hands since he is still so little :-) We cannot express how much we already love him and we cannot wait to tell and show him our feelings.

    i can't wait!

Baby Boy Ballou Belly

Week 30. Phew. Kickin' boy in my belly is definitely reminding me that I have inner sensitive organs :-) But that's ok. I love every single kick.

Week 27. Breathing is getting harder, can't eat that much at once anymore but our son makes us veeeeeeeeery happy already. I hope he feels comfortable in my tummy and he will stay there until he is ready to come out :-)

bed rest :-(

Day one of my bed rest hasn't been as boring as I expected but there are still many many more to go. Hopefully baby Ballou will recover soon. If you have a second or two please pray for baby Ballou. Thank you.
  • marla
    I'm glad it hasn't been as boring as you expected!!! Would it help to get interesting or funny things to read?

    I am reading a few things but somehow I haven't been that much in the mood for reading. It reminds me too much of studying. But I guess that will change again.
