A Fox in the Forest: The Countdown is ON!

Welcome to our baby blog! This is the first of many posts about our Fox Man! Daniel and I are just weeks away from meeting our precious little man, who has become known to us as LC (short for Lovie Cake- a nickname my Grannie used to call me). I am thankful to report he is a healthy baby. And by healthy, I mean... BIG. He is currently measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule, has a very large cranium, and full cheeks- ripe for pinching. The tech doing his last sonogram seemed a bit nervous about the size of his melon, but anyone who knows the Bacon side of my family knows to expect a large dome. I like to think LC is just so advanced and his brain has already developed so much knowledge. In other good news, his head is proportionate with the rest of his body, so 2 weeks ahead of schedule sounds about right. We will happily take him whenever he is ready to meet us.

I am entering that lovely time during pregnancy when I get restless and agitated at night, starting to get achey from being on my feet all day, going to the bathroom every three minutes, etc etc. Work has been keeping me and LC quite busy and my kiddos adore talking about him. They also like bringing Fox donuts, snacks, and treats in general. Fox happily accepts them... all of them :) The light at the end of the tunnel is that Fox will be born in April(ish) and I will get the rest of the school year at home with him and then ALL of summer with him before I go back to work.

Here are some pictures so far... plenty more to follow.
