My stomach will never be the same again...and I'm OK with that

We thought that I looked really funny in this busy print dress with a HUGE belly. Sometimes I look at myself and it looks fake to me too! Rest assured that it's not a basketball or a balloon...it's a real belly under there. Today at the Doctor she set our date to have this little girly. We will induce labor on June 26th as long as the Amnio comes back with a sign of strong lungs. Please don't be worried there is nothing really wrong with her, we are just bringing her a little early to be sure that she arrives safely. Cosette looks great from all the tests and everything and she is also really active. We are getting excited to meet her and enjoy her in our home.

* I hope everyone knows that I was holding the back of the dress to make my belly stick out more it was not that tight of a dress.

Rachael, you are the cutest pregnant lady ever! I love your belly! I just wish I only had four weeks to go--why does pregnancy have to be so long? Good luck with everything; you are always in our prayers!

I'm ditto'ing Stephanie. I wish I only had 4 weeks to go! Although pitocin is not so fun, it's nice to know when she's coming! I can't wait to see pictures of her. I hope these last 4 weeks fly by for you. :)

So so cute Rachael! You look adorable. Seriously! I'm so excited for you guys! She'll be here in no time. Good luck with the last little bit!

P.s. You always have the most adorable dresses (and clothes). Best style ever. Do you mind me asking where you find your cute print dresses?

Heidi, I found this dress at Dillards. It's not a maternity dress but it still does the job.

Rach --- flat bellies aren't all they are cracked up to be - a little post baby flab does a person good!! Love ya.

I love the dresses that aren't maternity, because then you can wear them when you aren't too. ;) I hope you didn't mind me asking. Thanks Rachael.

And congrats on getting into grad. school. It seems to be such an opportune time now when your family is so young, so that's awesome. Nate will have to be a secutity dude (if that's what they are called) like he did at the BYU-I library or his college experience won't be the same. Take care you three!
