It was 52 weeks tomorrow that my otherwise uneventful pregnancy suddenly became quite exciting. Well, if having hours long monitoring sessions and never knowing from one appointment to the next if an immediate induction would be advised means exciting. My anxiety level was through the roof. This is the face of all the trouble!
The entire pregnancy I had told myself that we would get through one more Christmas with just the boys and then prepare for the arrival of the baby. But, high blood pressure and a very relaxed baby changed all of that. As a result, I was the most prepared for Christmas that I have ever been since I didn't know if I would have another day without a newborn to be taking care of.
Of course hindsight is 20/20 and I wish I could tell my 9 month pregnant self that everything would work out beautifully. Perhaps some of those blood pressure readings would be a little lower. I always knew the third child would be great (being a third myself), but there really is something about Molly.

Thanks for the reminder!! That was a crazy time, wasn't it? And since there are lots of pictures of just her, she can't complain that being 3rd and being ignored.
Love you guys!!!
