Congratulations Mindy. Isn't it so funny how the end or beginning of a new trimester is so exciting. I threw a little party at the end of my first and now can't wait for the end of my second. We're so happy for you! How is BJ liking school? How are you surviving?

Becky said...

Yeah, Min! Can't wait to see pictures of the baby when he arrives! Wish we lived closer to you...

Have I told you how excited I am for you that you're having a boy? I AM!!!

Mindy said...

Thanks girls! We are all doing great. BJ has completed his first week. So far, so good...but I am sure things will get much tougher as the trimester progresses :)

Amanda said...

Wahoo for you! I'm almost there so i'll try not to be too jealous. What's up with the induction? I thought you were doing a midwife???
Anyway... Good luck with the countdown! :)

Oh yeah...about that midwife business. Deep down, I still think that if I had an incredible midwife, I would really enjoy the experience of homebirth. But, I didn't have anyone to give me recommendations and the unknown scares me a little. I saw a midwife during my first pregnancy (before finding my doctor) and she was horrible! I still think I should have filed sexual harrassment charges against her. So, trying to find someone at the last minute stressed me out. Especially when I KNOW that I like my doctor, am comfortable with her, etc. So, that idea kind of went by the wayside. But, I have to admit...I am pretty darn excited about getting induced early. This whole planning thing is really great :)

Alright... you are getting induced early? That is totally not fair! I need a Dr. like yours! I know you will still be pregnant by then, but can I schedule a photo shoot for about 6-7 weeks? I need someone's talent to take gorgeous pictures of this new litte guy like Holly took of Broc! Let me know, but if not I totally get it! Congrats on the date! I am super jealous! November babies are the best!

Min, I have to agree that although there is a part of me that thinks its cool that I didn't get an epidural when Sam was born...the other part of me has LOVED my 3 planned C-sections :) Being able to plan ahead is really great!

Mindy, Kinda funny how I came across your blog, weird actually...but any who, congrats on the boy, yay! If you want practice, Gaje is all yours. I will swap you for Kennady, I need some girl practice. All of your pictures are adorable, you are sooo talented! I miss your family and the rest of the ward. I can't think of any girl names, so shoot some my way if you come up with any. Aimee
