Mirror Image
I just wanted to share a funny picture of my dad and I at 32 weeks of pregnancy. It is funny how much our bellies look alike. Mere took this picture Thursday night before dinner. I know some people also wanted to see my belly. I am still measuring about 3 weeks behind where I'm supposed to be but the baby is growing fine and things look good inside my belly. So praise God for that. It doctor says I am just carrying it in a way where I don't measure as big as I should. Which is ok by me! Maybe it will be easier to take off this weight. I also reached the 10 lbs mark at my last visit. If I add the 13 lbs I lost during the first five months...it makes 25 lbs total that I have gained since I stopped losing weight. Just keep praying for a healthy baby and a smooth labor and delivery.

Baby on the Way!
We had our first baby shower this past weekend. It was a Habersham shower that was filled with lots of wonderful people, great food, lots of pregnant girls, and tons of awesome gifts! I want to thank everyone for coming and for being so gracious to Chris and me. Here are some pictures from the event and a new pic of the baby...ultrasound, of course.
This is Jen Kafsky and me. I'm opening a diaper sack that is covered in Georgia Bulldog material! Sorry Chris, there is no hope for a Alabama fan in this belly! By the way, Jen is due the Thursday after this picture is taken.
These are the hostesses, minus Julia. (She had to leave before we took the pic.) I am so blessed to have such wonderful women in my life! Each one has a special place in my life and heart. Thanks again for an awesome day. Chris and I are so blessed by you guys.

Here is the new picture of the baby. We had a surprise ultrasound on our last visit just to make sure that the baby is growing. I am not showing very much and measuring a couple of weeks early, so they wanted to take some pictures just to make sure everything of growing the way it should be. As soon as Chris saw this picture of the profile, he said, "Look at that Blackburn mouth!" (Blackburn is my mom's maiden name.) I think that is funny because I don't see it at all. What do you guys think? All I see is Chris Akridge's head!
