Baby update!

And there she is! This is me at 35 weeks. I look at pictures and think "Oh, I'm not that big"...and then I look down at my belly and think "I'm HUGE!!" Funny how that works.

Oh, and for some reason, I never remember to take a belly picture until I'm comfortably in my pajamas.
For those of you who don't know, Steve is most likely going to India and Vietnam within a week or two of the baby being born. I am so proud of him for being asked to go on this trip! Its really a big deal that the company wants him traveling so early on! I can't say I'm thrilled about the idea of him being gone so soon after she will be born, but I'm excited for him. He's excited for the responsibilities and for all of the things that he has been learning about!

SO, we've asked the doctors if they would be willing to induce by the due date because of the circumstances and they agreed right away. We will FOR SURE have our baby by April 13th! Wahoo!

Also, Joshua recently discovered that his favorite books have holes in the covers. He's been enjoying putting them on his arms like bracelets. Clever kid!
