Our Baby Girl

We would like to introduce you to the newest Blair in the family. Meet, Baby Girl Blair! I am about 24 weeks along with this baby girl. I had a feeling that the baby was a girl as this pregnancy has been sooooo different from my pregnancy with Cooper. We feel very blessed to be having a girl but most importantly the ultrasound showed that everything looks very healthy. This little girl is due on the 4th of July and we are so excited!
We hope you are all enjoying your weekend so far. Doug and I had a pregnancy massage class and a date last night that was lovely. We are finally starting to prepare for this baby and for the birth. I feel like with the second I have been so distracted with the every day to day of a toddler that it took me a while to embrace this pregnancy. I was also very sick which made it hard to enjoy it. I have felt wonderful for the past few weeks and have really started preparing for natural birth again which is very exciting for us. I feel like I am preparing for my second marathon as giving birth was the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life.
We are also working very hard on preparing Cooper for being a big brother. We have checked out many books from the library about pregnancy, birth, and being a big brother. He can tell you all about the umbilical cord and how mommy is going to "push" the baby out. He acts excited about being a brother but we are quiet aware that it is going to be very challenging for him. Luckily, Doug will be off for 2 months after the baby is born so we will have lots of time to adjust as a foursome.
