This month was a complete whirlwind of a month. I am blogging this much later than I would have liked to, as I am actually blogging this when month 8 has passed us by as well! That was an interesting month, but that's a whole other story that will be blogged about after this month!
We found out at our 3D ultrasound this month, that you are definetely growing quite big! I know that there is still so much time for this to change, but Daddy and I have a feeling, that you are going to be a Dutch sized baby afterall! With the size of my belly, that's really no surprise! We instantly fell in love with your cute button nose at the ultrasound and found watching the DVD play back, was a moment that we will NEVER forget! Your Dad wished for ONE thing, for you to NOT have the "Mosselman chin". I guess we will see when you decide to have your birthday!
Daddy was away A LOT this month. He went on business for a few days, three out of the 4 weeks of this month. He missed you and I SO much while he was gone, lecturing the BOTH of us, that nothing better change/happen, he better not miss anything that you do! Your movements have been UNMISTAKABLE this month, with Daddy seeing and feeling almost every movement you make when he is home. By the end of the month, you were still up in my ribs, but you started doing flips and rolls, which fascinated the BOTH of us, as we could see my entire belly change every time you did. Little did we know, that these flips and rolls would turn into one heck of an interesting end to the month! Everyday, Daddy fell more and more in love with you and my belly, asking me to take photos whenever I could while he was gone. So much has changed and I felt HUGE!
For a few months now, I have been working on a little surprise for Daddy. It was VERY hard to keep it a secret, but when he received his present, the sheer look on his face and the silence, while he opened it, made it BEYOND worth it. I had an amazing opportunity to do some maternity photos, back in January, with Ashley Vansickle Photography. This is something that Daddy had been BEGGING me to do for a long time, as he LOVES my belly (what a good man to tell me that all the time!) and wanted me to remember every moment of growing you. He has a few definite favourites, that will be hung in the house, but we were both excited about them all! Thank you so much Ashley, you did such an amazing job and I felt so relaxed and beautiful! Yes, it was freezing, I did get a NASTY cold after this photo shoot, but it was worth every bit of cold and discomfort!
Lastly, this month brought on some VERY big surprises for both Daddy and I. Since he was away a lot on business, he got quite a few lectures on MAKING SURE HE HAD HIS PHONE ON HIM FROM NOW ON. Unfortunately, he's not always the best listener, or most concerned about having his phone with him, or answering it, so he got in a little bit of trouble...
The big surprise, was that... I went into labour! This is a weird, long story, that deserves a memorable post of it's own, so I will end here, as the next month, became the craziest, most unpredictable time ever!
