Two-thirds of the way through

I am 25 weeks and 1 day, which means I am two-thirds of the way through this pregnancy. I had another doctor's appointment this morning and everything still looks good! Our little girl's heartrate was 134. It is always so reassuring to hear the sweet sound of our daughter's heart beating. It was especially nice after this week of work since there have been several IUFDs (intrauterine fetal demise) over the past week. I have always felt terrible for those people who lose their baby after the first trimester, but since I've been pregnant I feel like I have more of a persective. Needless to say, I found myself getting a little nervous. I am so thankful that everything so far has gone well with my pregnancy. I pray that God will continue to keep our baby safe, as well as me, for the remaining 15 weeks. I definitely take comfort in knowing that God gave us this child and that He will protect her.

Richard and I leave tomorrow for our "babymoon" (our last trip with just us before the baby comes) in New York! We are going to see "Wicked" on Broadway! This will be my first play to see on Broadway so I am super excited. I will make sure to post pictures of our trip when we get back.

I also will have to post a picture of our baby bedding that just arrived! We still have to get a mattress, so I will take a picture after we get it all put together.
