Mira's Mural

We decided to do a mural in Mira's Room.  Here's the first couple of pictures.  

The mural is of a tree.  In the branches are song-birds, an owl, a squirrel and at the base will be a rabbit.  The muralist is a local Texas Artist April Patterson.

Little kicker

I'm in the seventh month now, and I've been really surprised lately with how much I've felt Mira moving. Especially about 30 minutes after I've eaten. She'll wriggle and squirm and then just when I think she's done I'll get karate chopped from the inside. It's fun sometimes, but distracting at other times. Like when I'm trying to get to sleep. I'll be just about to doze off and then... ker-pow!

Mama at 6 months

Here are some pictures of me at the end of my 6th month of pregnancy. I'm standing in the nursery again, and you can see that the room has made a little progress... If it looks like my nose is a little red, that's cuz I've been fighting a little cold. Nothing too serious, just the sniffles and a sore throat.
