Let The Countdown Begin...


We are officially expecting baby Cowger #3 in less than one month. As I just returned from a trip to the mall today, I am reminded of how close we are to the end. Especially when I am asked repeatedly (by everyone I come into contact with, or even just happen to pass by) if I am due to pop (or explode, depending upon the tact of the asker) any day. No.... baby Cowger still has 3 full weeks to GAIN MORE WEIGHT. Let us pray this little guy does not posses his older brother's competitive nature in which he will last long enough to beat Thad's 9lb. 1 oz. birth weight. "Can my 5'3" frame even handle a bigger baby?", I ask my doctor. Supposedly, yes, it can. But I will not like to see it happen.

Logan is so excited for the baby to "pop out." He is already making plans for playtime. According to him on the way home today, Logan will hold the baby, and Logan will stop Thad (or slap Thad...I wasn't quite sure what he was saying) from hurting the baby. Thad is aware I have a baby in my tummy, but then again, he thinks he has a baby in his tummy too.
Stay tuned for pictures of what has been keeping me occupied for the past month or so -- my obsession over the baby room. We are closing in on the finish line, and I plan on having it finished before my official due date!

Isn't it amazing what our bodies are capable of? I am always in amazement of a 9 month pregnant woman's body. I think people are asking you if you are ready to pop since you are all stomach. You look good!
