Maternity pics and an update

Last week was a big one for us. We had 2 doctors appointments, a maternity shoot and a quick trip to Little Rock!
Our good friend Maura, took the pics and she did amazing. She was super quick which is great because Marc is not a huge fan of pictures! Ha. But he was a good sport. Pictures mean so much to me especially not knowing if we will have another opportunity to be pregnant again, so I was thankful to get a few!





We also got to see our little one too, which is always a treat. We went to the specialist and everything looks great still. She is measuring a tad short, but I suppose that should be expected with her parents being super short. We also spoke with the anesthesiologist this week about delivery. They let us know that the best way will be to put me all the way under. Unfortunately my back is surrounded with rods, so they don't feel comfortable messing with it or even attempting a spinal block. Marc will not be able to be in the operating room, nor will I be awake, but we have been expecting this all along. We know that its less than ideal, but now we know how to pray and prepare. If this is the worst thing that has to happen, we will gladly take it. She will only be in there at the most 5 minutes for while I'm under so we feel good about it and trust they are making the right decisions. As far as my back, it has held up so much better than any of us ever thought. I keep saying I think it may feel better than it did before I was pregnant. It is truly a miracle and we are so thankful because we thought I may be on bed rest at this point. Only 5 more weeks till we meet this kid and we couldn't be more excited!
