Carmen she's an angel! Congrats and blessings to you all.

And Kari, I'm so glad the procedure went well and hope little miss stays put. Quinn actually waited until just a couple weeks before delivery before she decided to turn. We actually scheduled a c-section and last minute changed the c-section to an induction since she turned. When she turned she was just a couple weeks from our due date and wow did I ever feel it. There was no doubt that she was turning when it finally happened....it took my breath away and was incredibly intense.

I can't wait to "meet" your little bundle also. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy flew past for both you and Carmen. Now Carmen's basking in the glory of motherhood and you're just about there yourself. Wowwie!

Oh my gosh, Carmen, she looks so much like you! She's wonderful and precious and perfect and look at her fingers! They're so long and tiny! I can't get over it, you created her! It's incredible. Sending lots of love from our family to yours. xoxoxoxoxoxo

Leslie, you are so right! It has flown by for me. I can't believe I've only got 16 days til Clara is due to arrive. My friend's baby turned the night before delivery! It's all up to the baby! They're not even born and already controlling everything, hahaha.

All of this has been such a surreal thing, it's been fantastic, to say the least!

Wow, she has her very own "look" to her. Beautiful. Can't wait for more pictures! Hope you and Laura are doing well.

Thanks guys. We are still doing well. Trying to get adjusted.
I am calling her my little eskimo baby because of how she squints.
I'll post more pictures when I have some extra time.

Kari, how are you feeling? I know it'll be soon for you.

Carmen, she's truly adorable. I think her nickname suits her. You know we want to see photos, but take your time.

I feel great! Just getting the house ready for baby and parents. I think I picked up today the last couple things we needed (a breast pump and carrier). I have some shelves, shadow boxes and frames I want to put up in the nursery, and that will be done, too. My parents are bringing her bookcase and toy chest, so I have to wait to put out the books we have.

The external version went really well and it feels like she's still head first! YAY! We'll find out for sure on Thursday when we go in for our appointment. It's **really** different now that she's got more room to move! When she had her head, feet and hands all at the top, I felt lots of little clusters of movement, but now I actually see legs, arms, feet, etc. She's so active, it's unreal. Our doctor always laughs at her when we're doing the sonograms, because he can hardly keep up with her.

I'm so glad you all are doing well! You need to change your signature, it says you have five days to go. hahaha Just joshin' you, but it makes me giggle when I see it!

And yet another wonderful angel has arrived at Pet Talk. We are so lucky - so many beautiful girls!

Keri - saying a soft prayer that all goes well for you too!

I just tried my baby carrier on, and practiced putting a stuffed animal in it. It is so much easier than a regular wrap/sling! I can't wait to see how Clara likes it! I know I love it, and even David was comfortable wearing the one he tried on at the store (with a baby boy in it!). I'd have to get him a different size, but we'll see how Clara likes it first, and how she likes the Baby Bjorn we got. If she or David don't like the Bjorn, we'll definitely be getting him one of the carriers I got for me.
