Week 25

Hello all! Baby activity has definitely kicked up a notch. I feel like the baby is doing ADVANCED Tae Bo now. We might even name him Billy if it's a boy. Just Kidding! It is really cool to feel everything, but strange to see your stomach jumping by itself when you look at it.

Saturday night we went to dinner with Dana & Michelle!

Sunday we had an open house. Say a prayer that our place sells soon!

Here's what is happening to Baby(from Babycenter.com):
Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight a pound and a half doesn't sound like much, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for a more rounded one. As your baby gains weight, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. His hair has color and texture now, although both will likely change after he's born. Babies born with red hair can turn into brunettes, dark tresses can turn fair, and curly hair can go straight, or vice versa.

Here's what is happening to Me(from Babycenter.com):
Your baby's not the only one with more hair your locks may look more full and lustrous than ever. It's not that you're growing more hair, but the hair you'd normally shed is sticking around longer than usual. You may also notice darker or thicker body hair, and it's not uncommon to sprout new hair growth on your chin, upper lip, jaw, cheeks, breasts, or belly, thanks to an increase in sex hormones known as androgens. All will return to normal in the weeks after you give birth. You probably can't move around as gracefully as before. Continuing to exercise is safe, but use your common sense: Don't work out when you're feeling overly tired, and stop if you develop any pain or feel at all fatigued, dizzy, or short of breath. Don't lie on your back too long or do any exercise where you're apt to lose your balance. Be sure to drink plenty of water and make time for both warm-up and cool-down periods.

It is fun to click to a website (It is on My favorites so I can get to it instantly)and watch people I love and have loved all your life(Kellie) and since we have met (Jay) bloom into another phase of your lives together. I smile to imagine your baby- this child is amazing!!! With parents like you- (s)he has a foundation of kindness, being funloving, intelligence, and being strong of heart. We love you guys- Love, Aunt Jennie

ok! I am trying this for the umpteenth time. I really suck at computers! We are very excited about the newbie and can't wait to hold him/her. I told David and Christy to enjoy the baby away from every one because once we get a hold of him/her it will be a lllooonnnggg time before you get another chance to hold him/her. That is the curse and blessing of having a huge family! This note keeps getting shorter and more boring because I don't know if it will finally go through. I might figure this out by the time the baby gets a driver's permit! Anyway, even if it doesn't work (again) believe that we are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers and are loving that beautiful babette more than we could write anyway. Love you, Aunt Katie and gang

Here I try again!!! I am so excited for you both. I wrote to David and Christy to hog all the time you can with the babette now because when you come down it will be a loooonnnngggg time before you get to hold him/her again! Oh, the curses and blessings of having a huge family! I can hardly wait to see you again, and of course, I am dying to hold the newbie! Be kind and loving to each other now cause when labor starts, Kellie, you may not be the sweet girl Jay is used to knowing. Jay, remember that anything said in labor and delivery stays in labor and delivery! We love you both and know you will be awesome parents. I just read what Jennie said and would like to add Strong of head to the list. It will have McCune blood. Love to you both, Aunt Katie ps I hope this finally reaches you, I suck at computers!
