    A note from Dawn:
    Well! We are 29 weeks today! I am seeing the doctor every two weeks now. At each appointment she answers any questions I have and listens to baby's heartbeat. She then measures the size of my belly to see how Little Robbie and I are progressing in growth. My last appointment was two days ago. We are measuring at 30 weeks already. The doctor seems happy with everything.

    Little Robbie is getting stronger and stronger every day (as well as bigger!) Right now he is an early riser like his Daddy. They both wake up at about 5:30 a.m. It makes me laugh to see Rob getting out of bed the same time his son is waking up and they can't even see each other yet! I, however, am not an early riser,(I usually get up at 8:00 a.m.) but Little Robbie may change that sooner than we expected. He keeps me awake for over an hour in the morning before I'm able to get another hour or so of sleep. I am fortunate, though, in that he sleeps all night quietly. He only wakes up when I get up to go the bathroom. He seems to turn over and get readjusted and then is quiet again. Somehow I don't think this is how it is after babies arrive!

    I have posted another set of belly pictures from today. It's been 5 weeks since the last set was taken and the growth is obvious. I still feel pretty good most of the time, but it's getting harder to bend over and breathe. I may either have to look for some slip on shoes for work soon or have someone start tying my shoes for me! Ha!

    Hope you all take care of yourselves. We look forward to hearing from you and enjoy reading your comments posted here. Thank you for checking in!

    Just to update you all on my glucose tolerance test. It came back normal, so no more concerns about gestational diabetes!

    I've been feeling good, except for a brief episode in church today where I nearly fainted. I think I may have just had too much singing and got too warm. Nothing to worry about. I came home and rested and have felt fine.

    Our next OB appointment is this Friday and then I'll start going every two weeks. We are going to be 26 weeks as of this Wednesday. Little "3.0" is big enough now to make it on the outside if I were to go into labor, though he would have a long hospital stay and some help feeding. It's nice to know that no matter what at this point, we're going to have a little baby!

    Hope you all enjoyed your Super Bowl Sunday!

    the baby to come home to...he will be a lucky
    little angel arriving to a lucky family.

    Take care,
