Many people have been asking how this pregnancy is going so I thought I'd write a quick update. As you can see on the baby ticker widget, we're about a week away from full term. YAY! The only due date I've been given is April 22nd, but the doctor has said that I'm measuring a little ahead of schedule. I'm not getting my hopes up still. I must say that this pregnancy is going a lot better than the last though. By this time with Ethan I was already on bed rest for high blood pressure. With this pregnancy, I haven't even had any swelling in my feet (knock on wood)! I have had a lot more practice contractions that often stop me in my tracks, but I'm hoping that it just means I won't have to be induced this time around. This baby is very active, and seems impatient to get out. As there's less and less room inside me, things are getting a lot more uncomfortable. Even just sitting up straight can be difficult. Sleeping is getting harder, and I suppose it's just getting me geared up for all those sleepless nights after the baby comes. Actually, I'm excited to finally see this baby and hold him in my arms.
We've finally decided on a name for this baby, but we're not telling... unless you really don't want to figure out the anagram. Just email us or wait til he's born.
Here's some anagrams though:
"Eligible Merman Sues a Rock." Richard made that one up. And though having two doesn't really help much, the one I came up with is, "Meek American Gerbil Souls."
Yes, I know it's a long name, the poor kid, but it'll be shortened (*hint*). Let us know if you want any other hints.
Well, now I just have to attach some pregnant pictures so you can see me in all my glory. I call the shirt I'm wearing my Easter Egg Shirt, because I think it makes my tummy look like a big easter egg.

You look great! What better thing to have your pregnant belly look like than an easter egg! I am soooo glad that you are feeling so much better than last time (though it isn't much comfort when you still feel so tired and uncomfortable).
Thanks for the update. We may just be in a race. Since I will be induced up to 10 days before my date and you could go late (possible) we could do another Ethan/Henry spacing. How fun!
More hints please!
So far, I have deduced that your child's name may somehow contain the word "Liger". I obviously need help.
i can't believe you're having another baby! That is so exciting, i am glad this presgnacy is going much better for you. We love watching all your videos, tell us how you do it, we've been wanting to do it. Take care and Ethan is adorable and a great helper!
