The ever growing belly...

I have never documented my belly the way I have been with baby # 6. I am so amazed with how fast these bellies can grow with a little one inside.. And I Love it!!!! Every month I take photos of my belly. The first few months I didn't notice much of a change but from 3 months ago to now at 24 wks, it is crazy how much bigger I am! Eeeeeeks! What will the next few months look like?

Ummm.... Can you say little mommy?

Today I had to take two of my A's out of school for orthodontist appointments. As I dropped the last one off at elementary school, my Tiny A said, "Oh, this is so sad. It seems like we only have one child." I was a little confused, so I asked, "What do you mean?" She quickly replied, "Well, Audrey just ran off to school all by herself. And it made me think that she was the only child we had. And I am glad we don't just have one. That would be lonely."  The key word in this conversation you need to take note of is the "we" she uses. As if she is one of the parents.. I loved it! And I am glad that we have more than one too. Because like Tiny A, I love being a mom!

It's a boy!

Eeeeks! We are so excited! We just found out we are having a boy! Our numbers are even now! 3 boys and 3 girls. He looked great. Measurements were right on with my due date. So I have a little one pounder in me that is a little more than 10 inches! So fun!
The tech had a hard time getting a good face shot in 3D. The baby kept moving his hands in front of his face. So she tried to peel back some of the 3D layers and this is what we got. The result being she peeled away a layer of the side of his head but we get a glimpse of his face. We are totally in love!

Boston Marathon

Matt ran the Boston Marathon a couple of weeks ago.. He had hurt his calf a few weeks before the race and it came back to haunt him. He still finished well, 2:56, just not where he had wanted to... But that is the name of the game... Sometimes it just doesn't come together like you would have liked. But Matt and I had a great time in Boston. We had several friends also running so we got to tour Boston and have some fabulous dinners with them. We missed the kids ( they stayed with Matt's parents) and no matter how old my kiddos get it is never easy for me to be away from them. What can I say, I kind of like them! Hee Hee! They are my world!!!
Any way Boston was beautiful... The subways were strange...( Not my thing) Here are a few pictures from the trip and race... and one of Matt's co-workers was at the race and shot a video of Matt... Thank goodness because I completely failed in the picture department...
