PREGNANCY UPDATE








We had a doctor's appointment yesterday and we are looking at 3 more weeks - less if I'm lucky. I begged the doctor to let me deliver next week but she said no. With my diabetes Gabriella's lung development could be delayed so we need to keep her in the belly as long as she wants to be there. On March 19th I will be 39 weeks and my doctor will induce me that night if Gabby has not been born sooner. I'm sure everyone who has ever been pregnant understands my "wish" to deliver her TODAY! I'm swollen, uncomfortable and feel HUGE. Though I love being pregnant and it has been a great pregnancy I'm over it. We had some pics taken a few weeks ago - here are some of our favorites.

Caroline is great. She was 22 months last week and is a very good girl. She is talking so much more and tries to repeat any word that you say. She is trying to put multiple words together, most of the time they don't make sense but she has got a few phrases down - "No, mine" (this is her favorite and my least favorite), Uh-oh baby. It is so awesome to see her growing and learning every day. She recognizes colors and loves Dora the Explorer. I can't believe she will be 2 in less than 2 months. She is such a big girl. I can't wait to see her face the first time she meets her new baby sister - she will be so proud!
Love to everyone from The Silverio's.

You look WONDERFUL! Though I know you're over it and probably getting pretty uncomfortable, pregnancy looks really darling on you.

Caroline is getting so big... can't believe it. She'll be a wonderful big sister.

I hope you're enjoying your growing family and ever-chaning life!
