23 Weeks

23-ish WEEKS

So, I was a little late...and didn't take another photo until 23 weeks (actually almost 24 weeks). My belly has definitely popped out now! There's no denying there's a baby in there now.

We had another sonogram today to check on a couple issues that were found in my last sono. (If you don't know what I'm talking about...feel free to ask and I'm happy to share!) Well, we left the appointment feeling very happy and BLESSED, b/c both issues are completely resolved and everything looks perfect. A big thank you goes out to all those who were partnering with us in prayer for these things. We feel so blessed that God chose to answer our prayer with healing. All praise goes to Him :-)

Baby Update: Baby H now weighs about a whopping 1 lb 7 oz.  Doc said he is growing right on track. Today during the sonogram, he yawned and sucked his thumb. Sooo cute! I think he looks like he has his Daddy's cute nose.

Mommy Update: I am feeling great and continuing to get things ready before our family becomes 3. However, I apparently still haven't learned how much is too much....b/c I did too much yard work and strained my lower back. After I did a photo shoot last night, I returned home and could barely walk! Yikes. Lesson learned. Although, I will say our hedges and bushes are looking great ;-)  Prayer for my back pain to go away would be much appreciated! I am going to see a chiropractor who treats pregnant women, so hopefully she will be able to help me. I feel lucky to have such a sweet and helpful husband that is going above and beyond to help out and take care of me, (despite his crazy schedule with studying, working, etc.).

Anyway, that's the latest news with the Hembree family. Happy Easter week!
