Is Will excited about having a little sister?

As much as I hate to post pictures of myself, I thought it was probably about time to show everyone what Deuce looks like at this point. We took these last weekend - this is about 36 weeks pregnant. Sorry for the red-eyes, I lost my photo editor program and can't find the new one.We thought it would be fun to get a picture of Will hugging mom's stomach but as you know, toddler's have their own opinions and he was in no mood to cooperate with the photo shoot. When I was about halfway through this pregnancy, the doctor cautioned me against lifting anything that was heavier than 10 pounds. Will's now around 32 pounds so you can see how well I took that advice.
We've been reading lots of books about babies and talking about the baby in the hopes that we are somewhat preparing him for the February events. At pre-school, the teachers ask him "is mommy having a baby?" His latest answer is "No. . . . . Dadda baby." And then he laughs. The kid definitely has a sense of humor and how I dearly wish that Dadda was carrying the baby this time around.

Update on Deuce - had a doctor's appointment yesterday and she's measuring about a week ahead which probably means that she'll be her brother's size. Will was 7 lbs 15 oz when he was born, which I know isn't super big but definitely a nice size. We're still scheduled for the c-section on Feb 10 but also still hopeful that I might go into labor on my own before that.

Stay tuned!
