Baby Baer

Little Baby Baer is growing like a weed. He is measuring bigger than average at each ultrasound but, still on the normal side. He is now 9-10 inches long and abt. 10 oz.
He may be my biggest baby!

Which actually scares me a bit. I had a hard time pushing out the oldest boy because of his big head and the youngest girl...not sure why. She was my largest at 6lbs. Since this will be a VBAC I am a little afraid of a larger baby.

He is kicking me on a regular basis. Today is must have been the game for the day...that and jumping on my bladder. Its quite funny actually. I am only 19 weeks and this kid can get me to run to the bathroom already. This afternoon he spent doing somersaults.

I am working on a baby afghan for him and also painting little sailboat hooks for his jackets. I think the nursery is slowly coming together. I am glad I have approx. another 20 weeks to get it done because I'm just not moving very fast.

I almost have his playroom cleared out but, I still have to decide whether to paint or what color.

I am looking forward to the time I will get to spend with him. With the other kids being so much older and not needing so much of my time...I will actually get to sit a play with him. I will be able to sit a read twenty books in a row if that's what holds his interest. I will get to play blocks, shake rattles, tickle his toes, and cuddle him to sleep. I feel like I missed alot of that with the other four. There was just so much demand for my attention and time. I didn't have alot to give.

The kids are getting excited. I think the believe that I will forget about them to some degree and they will be allowed to run amuck! Hah, won't they be surprised. I don't plan on any of my kids running anywhere.
