22 Weeks

FIVE & SEVEN Months

When our own children were born, we envisioned what they might have accomplished and who they might have become. We infused their lives with our hopes for them. With our grandchildren, the joyous expectation of their arrival is exquisite. Our hopes are limitless and joyous expectation is present as the days and hours trickle past... Here are a couple of belly shots of our girls!

Is My BUMP the Right Size?

A bump's position and shape are often the topic for hot debates among the superstitious.  Some people swear if you are carrying high or wide, it's a girl; and if you are carrying low or out in front, it's a boy (of course, there is no medical proof to back this up).  But for us almost 18 & 25 weeks I believe and it looks as if Shamesha may catch up in size to Shannon.  The bets are on as to who's going to be BIGGER?  These pregnancy photos are an important and easy way to commemorate our baby bumps and can also be used for photo or baby albums as the girls proceed through out their pregnancies.

Cousin Bonding

Being with child is such a precious time in life and we want it to be remembered with great pride and solace.  With that in mind here are a couple of belly shots (about 16 & 23 weeks) of our two girls going through pregnancy together, how FUN is that? Look and see how these cousins are bonding already...

Be Fruitful & Multiply

Arriving soon, Baby Smith & Baby Sheffield, so delighted to see our family grow with each new birth, each and everyone is prized and celebrated and adored.  With an incredible combination of excitement and panic all mixed into one... we can't wait to meet them!

BABY Smith/Loomer due to arrive in September 2012

Smith/Sheffield 1st Ultrasound

Sometime late October or early November, I anticipate that I'll be holding my fifth grandchild in my arms! What a BIG surprise and a wonderful blessing boy or girl. What we do know is that God created this child's inmost being; he is knitting him or her together in Shamesha's womb. He or she is fearfully and wonderfully made. This child's frame was not hidden from God when he or she was made in that secret place. When he or she was woven together in the depths of the earth, God's eyes saw that unformed body. All the days ordained for this child is written in God's book before one of them comes to be. "How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!" Psalm 139:13-17
