26 Weeks {with #4}

I took this picture on Tuesday this week...

and thought, oh wow, that makes me look much bigger than I am...

So Wednesday I tried again...

Turns out I'm really just that big.  Ha!  How humbling.

This little fella is riding a bit lower that the rest did and my sweet sister (who is a labor/delivery RN) said to me, "your uterus is getting tired!"  Thanks, sis (wink!).  That only means an easier exit, right?  LOL

I am right at 26 weeks.  I do have back pain and hip pain again this time, however considering the difficult times others are going through around me I am blessed.  I shan't complain (except occasionally to those closest to me!).  The chiropractor suggested I stop bending over so often and stop lifting so much.  Yes sir...have you met my 30 pound toddler??

I remind myself that last time I did "back to back" pregnancies like this I was five years younger.  Five years may not seem like a lot but it currently feels like a lot.  I'm thankful for good family, a good husband, and well behaved older children.  And, #4, we are thankful for YOU.  You will be responsible for helping keep your sister buddy (Mia) in line and reminding her that the world doesn't revolve around her precious self.  Good luck, son.  

Still no name for this little guy...more advice is welcome!
