Congratulations to BOTH of my sisters and their families on their new beautiful baby boys!
The very weekend we moved into our new house, Dan bought Lydia a little pumpkin. As soon as fall hit and all of the stores had started putting out pumpkins, gourds, corn, and hay stalks, Lydia was fascinated. We thought it would be a fun treat to get her a little pumpkin of her own. We brought it home and put it on our fireplace mantle.
The Saturday when we moved all of our boxes into the garage, some sweet friends from church (who now live just around the corner from us) invited us over for dinner. As an extra treat, they gave us two pumpkins, one for each of the girls. Now we had three pumpkins. But do you know what? That’s ok.
Because…
We’re having a baby!
No, we are not having multiple babies. Due to the nature of my pregnancies, we just get lots and lots of pictures of Baby 3.
Baby’s official due date is April 20.
(More details soon to come.)
Here’s is my promised pregnancy shot from the past weekend. The picture on the left is me 28 weeks along with Lydia. The picture on the right is me at 28 weeks with Baby 2.
Here’s Lydia on her birthday, just 2 weeks and 6 days after that picture was taken.
And here is Baby 2 on her birthday, just 4 days after that second picture was taken.
Introducing Abigail Faith Taylor
Born: September 11, 2013 at 4:53 am
Weight: 2 pounds, 15 ounces
Length: 15.75 inches
Well, little Abby decided to come even earlier than her sister. While so much of this labor and delivery was not what we had prayed or hoped for, God’s handiwork was all over it. From the preparation of our hearts and minds leading up to labor, His provision for everything we needed, just before we needed it, answered prayers during labor and delivery, and Divine Protection, God was definitely in charge of this situation.
I plan to post the details of Abigail’s birth story later, along with updates on how she is doing. For now, Baby is doing very well (for her age) and Mommy is recovering well too. We are currently trying to figure out a plan for handling our Munchkin along with this new little one, as we expect to spend the next two or three weeks with Abby in the hospital NICU.
