30 Weeks
August 9th, 2021 by Aubri
August 5: 30 weeks. Could you consider the last 10 weeks the final stretch? Especially if you’re not likely to get to 40 weeks? The answer is yes. It’s been a while since I was pregnant all Summer and I have to say I no likey. But besides sweating all.the.time, experiencing the familiar aches and pains and having nothing left in the tank from morning to bedtime, I’m feeling…pretty okayish.
Baby girl moves often which is always a comfort. She’s up to almost 3 pounds and I was surprised to hear she was head down at this week’s ultrasound. Until now she’s been transverse every time and I was wondering if she had the ability to move to that degree, so that news was encouraging. At least I know she can get there!
I’m getting very eager to meet her though I admit the desire to just keep her safe where she is forever has been in my mind for months.
As always, thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers. We are surrounded by such love and support. God is good.
Last Days of Summer

July 31: The last weeks of Summer Break are here. As usual there’s all the relief and regret that comes with that. It feels like this was one of the busiest Summers we ever had. June was a roar of preparing for Houston and the possibility of being gone for 4 weeks. Everything was on hold until we knew what to expect. Then it was on to Plan B, whatever that was. This Summer was not what we expected and also more than we expected. We were blessed with many visitors and some spontaneous adventures. And so many doctors visits. Oy.
For our final days we enjoy the now and start prepping for what is to come.

July 30: “When you turn 13 you can have your ears pierced.” I have always said. Well, Lily held me to it. She’s been asking since Christmas and today was finally the big day!
