I am 19 weeks today. Man the time has flown by. I am so much bigger than I was with Taylynn. I remember it was about this time that I was just starting to show. I had gained weight, but it seemed to be everywhere else but the belly.
I think I have gained about 6-8 pounds and it is almost all in the belly. The baby should be around 8 ounces and 6 inches long. I am so excited to sweet our sweet little baby on Friday, it almost brings me to tears to think about it.
I am praying for great sonogram results. With my other two I never thought much about the measurements they take or them checking the baby out. I worry now that I have been through it. I realize now that a sonogram is so much more than finding out the sex. They can tell you if your baby is developing correctly, or is having complications. It makes me nervous, but I know that God already has a plan for me and He knows where I'll be in 5 month and in 5 years. I don't have to worry or be anxious about anything, and that brings be peace and joy.
Besides I love this baby so much already. Every time I feel a kick I find my self praying for this baby. Praying for health, love for Jesus, a kind heart, a wonderful spouse....I know I know it seems early, but I am so in love with this child.
Here are some verses that come to my mind often to remind me who is in control:
Philippians 4:6
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
So in the meantime as I write and dream about this baby, my other two are glued to the TV watching The Sound of Music. I admit they have gotten to watch too much TV this winter, but who can resist a classic musical. I do get tired of fast forwarding through the 30 commercial brakes (it is record on the DVR) and the fact that I have seen this movie about 12 times in since January.Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Taylynn especially loves it. She doesn't call it by the title, she says "Mom I want to watch the girls dancing" and I know exactly what she means. Soon she'll probably have the words down. I do hear her singing, but it is definitely not the right words.
I snuck up on them today and took a picture while they were watching the movie
Have a blessed day!
You look too cute!! Can't wait to hear the news!

Hi Caroline, I just wanted to comment back to you from your comment on my Top 5 Post (you're no reply, so I couldn't respond) I don't live in Kansas, but was born and raised there! I have huge KS pride :-) I've been to many concerts at the Granada and it's still there! If only John Mayer would just keep his gross mouth shut, right?? ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou are truly blessed! Traci
