Seeing Jillian Grace Riera

Yes, there is no doubt what the blog would be about this morning.

Our Jillian Grace....

We all were mesmerized by these 4-D ultrasounds.

Most amazing thing for all of us is just how much

this baby looks like her DeDa,

better known on this blog as Baby boy....

Even Kd's own parents couldn't find much that looked like her

Except of, course, her tenacity.....

After about two or three pictures and trying

to move the little child,

she started the drama stuff, by putting her little

hands over her face and even putting her hands

in front of the camera.

There is even a picture of her that looks like

her thumb is in her nose..... like her deda here

at Disney World when he was four...

That little nose is for sure Jillian Grace's.

The cutest little thing here at 4 months.

I wish I had baby pictures of KD so I can really see

if she is a combo. baby or really looks as much

as BB as it seems to us.

Here he is flying....

Yes drugs and a young father do not mix.

My poor little boy, HOBL before he was sober would

put BB in this little red PJ and fly him around the house.

I know, I know..... What was I thinking allowing this,

but hey, I was only three days past 22

and still had the camera in my hand.

Yes, he got fussed and threatened he better not do it again...

after I got the snapshot.....

Back to the point....

Have to go to Cathy's and scan some pictures of KD as a

baby.... I have none on my computer of KD as a child.

I also want to confess, I was not a firm believer of the

4-D ultrasound, believed the babies looked like

aliens, but I believe the ones I had seen before

were done too soon in the pregnancy.

I am now a lover of these things.

It was like being inside a day in the life

of this little miracle.

So if you are on the fence on doing this....

KD is 27 weeks so I would suggest not

doing it sooner than this date....

The only bad thing about the whole experience?

We all wanted to take her out now....

BB was saying jokingly,

"KD can we schedule a C-section tomorrow?"

I was like a baby when it came to the offer

of having a small bunny with a recording of

Jilly-bean's heartbeat.

The boys said no.... we didn't need that

but Cathy (KD's Mom) and I, we couldn't resist...

What makes me feel like a real baby....

Cathy wanted to give hers to KD

and I selfishly want to keep mines....

and did. It now lives in my scraproom where each

time I go in there I start my crafting by

listening to Jilly's heart.....

Thank you Frank for treating

me to the bunny...

Cannot wait for Jilly to be here

Thank you KD for taking such good care

of yourself to have this baby so healthy.

At just 27 weeks this baby looks so full and healthy.

A perfect day, meeting
