31 Weeks! The Countdown Begins!

Looks like we got only 8 weeks to go!!! Check out Lucy at 31 weeks!


Those cheeks!





<3



It never fails - every time they try to get a full face shot of her, she has her arm up in the way. =) Just like mama.



Keep us in your prayers as we look ahead to these last 8 weeks (or less!!) leading up to meeting our baby girl! We are so excited and so nervous. We have been truly blessed by this entire journey and never expected to be where we are. Pray for low stress levels (HA!) and healthiness all around. Thanks you so much for all your support through this! We can't wait for you to meet Lucy either! God is good!

Lucy's Healthy Heart!

So we indeed have lots of updates since I last posted!
We have announced our baby girl's name:




That's right! Lucy Mae Ruhlig!

Also, today we had Lucy's echo cardiogram, which was done to ensure that she doesn't have any congenital problems like her mom. She passed with flying colors, and we also learned she is 2 and a half pounds right now! WOW! Guess we don't need to worry about that low birth weight thing...

Here are some pics we got of her today (27 weeks):

She's a mover, so this profile of her was a little fuzzy...

Crossed, little legs


Every pic we've gotten of her face, she has her hand next to it. Already a shy girl.

And she was hiding her face behind the placenta...

 Still as cute as can be!

Thanks for the prayers for our little blessing! Lucy is doing beautifully, and mom is doing very well too! No problems yet! Keep those prayers coming as we enter the last trimester!
