On New Year’s Eve, Jeff was the only one in our house to say hello to 2011. Jay was in bed by 7pm, and I went to bed at 9:30pm. I felt bad abandoning my husband so early, but Rose and I were exhausted. Part of the magic of the third trimester is it FEELS like I stayed up till midnight, even though I didn’t. That’s got to count for something!
For the past few weeks, we’ve been trying to get a good family picture. I’ll let YOU be the judge of whether or not we succeeded:
Last week we took pictures after church, before lunch. Bad plan. Jay wasn’t in the mood.
We used the sweet camera remote that I gave Jeff for Christmas.
“We want lunch!” but if you look closely, there are crumbs on my belly so it appears that I had a snack before these pictures.
And we tried again today, but before church this time. Too bad we don’t know how to pose.
The best we could do, unless you count the next one…
Make it end!!! One of these years we’ll go to a studio and get a cute, stylish family photo. Maybe.
This week I had another ultrasound to check on Rose. It was the first one Jeff has ever been to! I was expecting it to be a lot easier to see everything since Rose is so much more developed now than she was 7 weeks ago, but it was even harder! She was too big for us to see much of her at once, so we had no idea what we were looking at most of the time. This picture is her profile (nose pointing up).
This was one week ago, at 34 weeks (6 weeks to go). I didn’t take a belly picture today, but now there are only 5 weeks left!!!! The real question is what to do till then…

I know what you mean about not staying up. I actually stayed up this year after not making it the last two (one year I was newly pregnant and sick, the other year I was sleep deprived from a baby that didn't sleep). It was fun to celebrate; maybe next year you'll make it!
