Babymoon!







This will be a short update, we've got lots of stuff to do! On March 11th at 1:17 PM, Danica Rae Karr arrived by c-section!!! She was 8 pounds even, 20.25 inches and lots of hair! She had her cord around her neck twice which was why she was trapped in the breech position. Praise the Lord for a healthy happy baby. My recovery has gone well, and Dani nurses like a champ! I am having loads of fun with my cloth diapers, trying on all my little covers and prefolds. Craig does great with them as well, and his folding technique holds in the poos just as well as mine. Dani sleeps pretty well at night, we are getting adequate sleep. It helps that my mom is staying with us and will watch her we need a nap. Craig's Mom has been great, bringing desserts and lunches and hanging out to keep us company. Our church lifegroup is doing a dinner a night for a week, this has also been a huge blessing. Anyways, feel free to call for stop by to meet the new family celebrity!!!

Counting down the days


Only a week and a half until my due date. I am so excited to meet her, and so nervous!! Sometimes she sticks her little fists out against my tummy, and they feel so cute I'm sure they are even cuter fists in person. ( If that makes any sense) Here's a recent pic from last weekend. When I saw it, my first thought was " I can't be that huge, I would be ramming into everything with my belly!" But then I realized that I was ramming things. I definitely don't feel that big, I guess because it came on so gradually. I have Dr's appt. tomorrow, and we'll find out more about if we are scheduling a c-section, or whatever. At this point, I am just praying for a healthy happy baby and mommy, and whatever happens happens. ( We can still pray for a flippy baby though!)
