I'm back!! My computer is lit up! It's not 100%, it's going to take awhile to get things running smoothly again, but I managed to get photoshop going. To celebrate, I decided to ask Ty to take a few shots of the belly today. He was totally psyched to use the 5D. He did really good and even caught a few of Taryn coming over to yell at my belly "HEAD DOWN BOY, HEAD DOWN!"
And he is head down! After a horribly uncomfortable night last night, he managed to flip over. I knew he was trying at around 11:30 pm. I was so miserable but I just wanted him to flip, I honestly didn't think he made it though when I fell asleep after 2 am. But today at the ultrasound they confirmed it, he's head down, measuring in at about 6 lbs and 9 oz! Let's just hope he doesn't manage to flip back over again (for both our sakes)! He sure does look like a cutie, Jase and I both commented that he looks like he's got chubby cheeks =) I was having contractions 7-8 minutes apart all morning, but they quit while we were there. We're getting sooooo close!
Yay about the computer and Yay about baby flipping!! I know that has to be such a relief!! Sayin' prayers that he stays that way!! I am getting really excited to see some newborn shots...my how time has flown!

Yay, I love the photo!
so good that he is head down, my midwife said it is really unlikely that they will ever flip back this late in pregnancy because their little heads are such a large percentage of their body weight it is very difficult for them to fight gravity - so you are probably in the clear.
Best wishes - I can't wait to "meet" Teagan (in a weird virtual way)

Great photo Ty! It's funny, Taryn is already bossing around her baby brother. She was cut out to be a big sister!

Yeaaaa baby! How weird that must have been for you to be so aware of him trying to flip. I mean, weird and painful. I do remember how much more painful it was with my second when he would move around.
I'm so glad all is well and that the computer is up and running again. And what a great job Ty did! Look at that beautiful pregnant belly... and what a cute shot with Taryn.
Best wishes!
