26 weeks

I took these pictures in a rush. Buddy had the camera so I took advantage of the moment. I changed into a variety of shirts, but did not bother to fix my hair or re-apply make-up. I figured you all were more interested in seeing how big the belly is now, than in how well put together I look.



As you can see, I have outgrown most of my maternity clothes. Joseph weighs almost 2lbs and his mommy weighs 134 lbs. The doctor said that I have to watch my weight. Yep, he put me on a diet. I have to stay away from carbs and sweets. I am struggling with complete obedience.

Loren ---
What a blessing to get an email update. I haven't been to your blog in awhile...obviously...since I'm just now seeing how adorable you are with that growing belly!!

Whit and I will be praying for you and little Joseph during these last months.

Missing you!

Love in Christ,
Sonya
