25.5 Weeks!

I apologize for the lack of updates recently - I know - you've been on the edge of your seat waiting for another post....

...but you know what they say, no news is good news right?

Things are rolling along quite well over here at the Stimers' residence! We were at the hospital this morning, and aside from Kristin's cervix opening, everything is moving along quite well! Good thing they put that stitch in....

We were advised to pack a bag though, if anything "dramatic" happens, they'll admit her. I don't think this includes the interpretive dancing that our babies seem to be doing during ultrasounds and heart monitoring. Their kicks are getting stronger though, and it's pretty exciting!

And now, since I have no further exciting news or stories to share, I'll put up a few recent pictures so you can track the baby belly as it expands. I must say, though, it's harder to notice in pictures (I think), but in person, it's pretty surreal. Kristin's a beautiful pregnant woman though, if I do say so myself, and has a wonderful glow about her.

See? What did I tell you about that glow, eh? Kristin's made a comment that I don't know what it's like to walk around with a huge, rapidly expanding belly, so I did my best to recreate it. She's right, that stuff ain't easy!

Alright, so the pumpkin didn't quite compare, but it gave Kristin a good laugh, so it did the trick. I'm just trying to be a good husband and empathize...

Getting bigger every week!

Until next time....

Paul... you've really popped since I last saw you - hee hee Seriously though, Krissy is looking adorable! Seeing her belly there reminded me of my friend, Denise, when she was very pregnant in October many years ago. She painted her belly orange and made herself a pumpkin :-D

Glad everyone is doing well. I hear she's had some company this week - that's good! Hopefully I can get out to see her again soon! Sending love to you all! Hugs xo

P.S. Thanks for the belly shots!

It's so nice to see Kristin with a nice round pregnant belly after waiting and wanting for so long. God bless! See you soon!

Okay, first, Kristin - you look incredible and I can only imagine how you feel! That's a LOT of baby belly! And Paul? Your belly photos? I'm speechless.
