27 weeks!

Last week of the the second trimester.  Can't believe I'm almost in my home stretch!!!

26 weeks - Last ultrasound

This is the last time we will get see Christian before he is born.  

Profile with puckered up lips :)

Doctor said his heart looked "text book".  Everything looked great! 

26 weeks.  Non-stop moving!

Ultrasound tech said he had a bunch of hair floating around already!

Happy Easter!

25 weeks - I chose this picture because there is a little orb on my belly.  Ever since Joel and I have known each other we always called those orbs "angels" in the picture.  Looks like Christian already has an angel looking after him :). Maybe it's his namesake (his Uncle Jon Christian).  

Megan and Tyler visiting for Easter!

Happy Easter!!!
