Wow! Hard to believe that I am over 32 weeks pregnant already. Billy and I are so blessed. Today I thought I was meeting Billy at work to put Tanner on our insurance, go to lunch, and go shopping and turns out that they were having a surprise pot luck for us at his office. What a blessing and huge surprise. I am so grateful. Billy works with some wonderful people and we are so fortunate. I have my 33rd week check up on Mon. and then the following Thursday October 8th we go back to Shand's for another sonogram. I know God is taking care of our son. He moves all the time. No particular time of day anymore just whenever he feels like it. I feel great too. Besides getting tired. I know this will be a big kid. I know he will be so special and I can not wait to hear him call me mommy. Today was great and I thank God for all he continues to bless us with. Not only has my Faith been stronger through this I know what it is like to truly turn things over to My Heavenly Father. I have complete trust in HIM!

30.5 weeks...

We had a great visit at Shands on 9/11/2009! On a day we took time to honor and remember the fallen heroes of the United States, we had a chance to celebrate the upcoming life of our son! By measurement, he is weighing over 4 pounds! His left kidney remains enlarged, probably due to obstruction, but it has not enlarged much further since our last visit. The doctor was pleased with that, so we praise God for answered prayer! When the nurse was taking the measurements, Tanner was hiding his face behind his arms...playing coy peek-a-boo already...

When the doc came in, Tanner showed us his face! WOW!!!!! Here are the pictures we got to see...

Here is his mouth and nose! These are the same pics, we just rotated them...



Here is his little face!



And here it is rotated...


It is safe to say that God knows exactly what he is doing!

Ecclesiastes 11:5
As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
