Last January Justin and I found out I was pregnant. 18 weeks later we found out we were going to have a baby girl. In the picture above you have Emma Jean O'Dell's first photo and an afghan, towel, and bib that my mother had bought when Justin and I married 7 years earlier because she just knew we were going to have a girl!
The months past and I grew and grew. I also spent most of time worrying about the health of our baby to be. I had lost two babies during our parental journey (One in March 2008 and the other in October 2009) The days would drag by and I would constantly be concerned with what could be wrong. I was afraid to post or even take pictures for fear of putting a jinx on everything. I daily had to tell God it was in his hands and it took all my will to put it all in his hands and trust his guidance during the journey.
Here I am a tiny thing in July. Little did I know that by my due date I would be much larger than what I was already feeling.
Here I am with two of my nephews a few weeks before Emma arrived!
Here I am just days before Emma arrived. I can't believe I was so big!
