Published.

I'm the photographer in the family, yet my husband has published his first photograph! This photo was taken of Ben in 2007, shortly after he was born. We shared it with my OB/GYN practice and it's appeared in a few publications - most recently this one about the good works at Tepeyac Family Center:


In any event, this photo has brought up another topic that has been on my mind - baby #3. For those of you who weren't aware I was put on bed rest last Tuesday. It's been chaos around here... Seth has been working over time caring for the family, maintaining the home, and running his business. My mother came to help for a few days and Seth's mom arrived today to stay with us for the duration of the pregnancy. Thank God, otherwise I would fear that Seth drop dead of a heart attack before he meets the newest addition to the Sinclair household.

Today I received some more interesting news at my 35 week appointment - they scheduled my c/s date for March 29th. Also, they will be removing my cerclage next week - the 17th. I was told to pack my bags as it could be the big day if baby seems to want to come out! To celebrate such news I treated myself to Chipotle for lunch... Don't worry, I know my limitations being on bed rest. I parked in a handicap spot to avoid walking too far during the lunch rush. I have also been inhaling chocolate by the pound. The chocolate indulgence is because I'm giving it up for Lent. Didn't think a bed ridden gal could handle forgoing TV or Facebook this year!

Now is where the prayer requests come in - please say a little prayer that I get my hair highlighted, brows waxed, and a nice pedicure before the baby comes. The timing of things doesn't look so hot. So if I had to settle for one, I'm asking for a nice coiffure on the operating table. Is that so much to ask?!

  1. What a great picture!!

    We will keep you, Baby #3, and the rest of your boys in our prayers!! And fingers crossed that you'll be able to squeeze in some necessary pampering beforehand :)
