26.5 Week Update:

Its so hard to believe that 6 more weeks have gone by since my last post!  Once again, I have lots of updates so here goes...

Our appointments with Dr. D have all gone very smoothly.  Baby Girl Hardy seems to be growing at a normal pace with a strong heartbeat.  We pray that this continues for 13.5 more weeks!  We go in this weekend for all day labor/delivery classes and then go back on Monday for my next scheduled OB appointment.  This will be the glucose test day...I've been trying to pump myself up to down the glass of flat orange awesomeness, so time will tell how that event goes...lets hope good!  Following Mondays appointment we will be seeing Dr. D every two weeks for the next few and then switching to every week a little later.

Baby Girl took her first trip to Florida for the Reeds/Murrays family reunion!  It was one heck of a trip filled with lots of fun: Mickey Mouse, face paint, golf, pool, beach, & Great Family Time!  Of course we will have to take her back a little later when she can partake in more of the fun rather than just hearing it all as she swam around in my belly! Here are a few FL pics:




Next Update: Growing BELLY!  T has been taking belly pics so we can keep track of some crazy belly growth...so here you go...check out our little Pea growing bigger every week:

Its just unbelievable how blessed we are.  God is so amazing...to bless us with this Miracle Baby Girl... We sure do serve one awesome God!  I used to look down at my growing belly and be reminded of this every single day, but back at 22 weeks I finally felt our miracle for the first time & now I'm reminded multiple times a day of God's awesomeness...every time she stretches and wiggles!  T & I just can't get enough of her.  At night as we lay in bed and stare at my belly...we are beginning to see her from the outside rolling around...so cool!  I will say, her and her Daddy already have a special bond.  She can be moving like crazy...he places his hand on my belly & within seconds she settles down.  Looks like he's in charge when she's fussy...lucky guy!

My goal from this point forward is to update my blog every week for the remainder of our Pregnancy Journey.  Next week: the reveal of Baby H's Nursery & the results of the orange drink test!
P.S. Here's a video that T & I made for her to watch one day when she's much older.  We showed it to our friends and family at the Gender Party (click the "Baby Hardy" link below to watch):
