I loved being pregnant, and it showed

In the milk barn pregnant with Nancy... it looks like the zipper had to give way for the growing baby belly or bump as they say these days.  I loved to have that connection with the new life within me, and that is why it hit me very hard when I would lose a pregnancy.  As soon as I knew that I was pregnant, and that was basically a day after my period was due - I was using the symto-themo method of natural family planning and charting to get pregnant... I would think of the baby all the time, and how it was growing, and who it would be!!! 
And here she is in all her glory!!!  She had such dark hair - it was like a patch of fur on her head, and dark skin.  We called her our little Eskimo baby - Nanuk of the North!  I was 30 when I had Nancy just as she was when she had her second last November - little Bernadette!  We both started late, but the Lord blessed us with children, and LIFE, and LOVE, and LIGHTS! 

Babies with baby animals - the reason I am hooked on pictures!  Happy Birthday Nancy and now to see you taking up the beautiful picture baton and winning the race.  I loved that you and Bernadette had on yellow for Easter.  I tried to borrow the picture, but I couldn't, so if you want to see them you will have to go to Nancy's blog
