Baby Luther update

Baby Luther is growing and so is this momma!  We had an appointment on March 20th as well as our "big" ultrasound.  The ultrasound went great.  Baby Luther is growing just as he or she should be and is actually measuring a few days ahead of my due date.  Since we are not finding out the gender, there was no major news to share other than all looked good.  My doctor's appointment went well too.  I have had several headaches, but other than that I have felt really good.  I still have heartburn after eating pretty much anything, but Tums have become my best friend.  Baby Luther's heart rate was 157.  I have gained a little more weight than I would like...I have gained 15 pounds so far.  Oh well, I know that I will just have to work hard after Baby Luther is here.  Baby Luther continues to be a busy baby.  Anytime I lay down, Baby Luther is on the move.  Kyle and Kathryn both enjoy me laying down so they can feel the baby.  It is really so sweet when Kathryn asks me to lay down so she can feel the baby.  It makes my heart smile.  Kathryn loves talking about the baby and telling me all the things we need to do once the baby is here.  For example, she informed me the other day that "When the baby gets here after my birthday, we need to feed the baby and put the baby in the crib for the baby to sleep all night."  I wish it were going to be so simple!  Kathryn also informed me that "If the baby is a girl, I think we should name her Lily, Blanky, Ducky, or Booky."  I just had to laugh a little.  I know that Kathryn will have some adjustments to make come August, but I do think she will be an awesome big sister!  We are all so excited about Baby Luthers arrival.
