Countdown


29 Weeks
Me (29 weeks) Kylie (35 weeks)
Me, my mom and my sister

When I was pregnant with Lily I started my countdown to her birth at 30 weeks.  I don't know why, but at 30 weeks I could see the end in sight.  So...I am officially on my countdown to my countdown!  I will be 30 weeks on Friday and then only 10 more weeks to go...hopefully!  These past few weeks I have gone back and forth with my decision to do a VBAC versus a repeat C-section.  If anyone has any advice or can help reassure me that a VBAC really is safer please send me a little note...I am needing some reassurance right now. 
We have our 3D ultrasound on Thursday so I can't wait to see the little guy/gal again!  Lily will be with us too, and I think it will be good for her.  She is understanding that there is a baby in mommy's tummy.  Everyday she lifts up my shirt and talks to the baby and kisses and hugs the baby.  I'm just still not sure how it will go when she realizes once the baby is here we can't give it back! 
My sister is really on her countdown!  She is due on Lily's birthday, September 12th.  She knows the baby will be here sooner than that because our Dr. will be out of town September 11-15th and if she hasn't had the baby by then she will be induced.  I think that the both of us being pregnant has Lily a little confused...she sometimes thinks there is a baby in everybody's tummy...even in her daddy's!  She lifted her shirt up the other day and I asked her what her tummy was and she said, "BABY"!  Uh oh. 
I still feel pretty good and my only real complaint is this ridiculous heat and humidity!  I am really looking forward to the fall and yes even the winter!
