20 weeks!!

This picture was after a long day at work and a big dinner! I think it is going to be a big boy!



After a nice long walk tonight! I know it is not the same shirt, but it does not cover my belly anymore!






Say hello to our baby boy!!!! :)


Half way point, we made it!!! Today we had our ultrasound and we found out it is a BOY!!! We are so excited, a little Tom is on the way!!! During the ultrasound the baby would not hold still, so we did not get as many pictures today as last time, but above are a few we could actually get!!! There is two of the head, one of the feet, and then one of the...well you guessed it!!!
I am feeling so much better these days! Every once in while I do get nausea, but nothing like the first few months!!! The only thing that drives me crazy right now is eating every two to three hours, but I guess that is good practice for what is to come!!! I think I have felt the baby move a few times, but we are waiting to really feel it in a few weeks! The doctors told us it might be closer to 22 weeks before I really start to feel the movement!
We are planning on registering in about two weeks at Buy Buy Baby and Baby R' Us!!! We will let everyone know when that is complete!!! The next post will be around 22 weeks!!! And the next ultrasound pictures will be around 24 weeks. This was suppose to be our last ultrasound, but since I have colitis they want to keep an eye on the baby for Mal-absorption!!! But don't worry, everything is perfect! Today they looked at the heart, head, kidneys, bones, everything, and it all came back totally normal and perfect!!!! We love and miss you all!!!! Feel free to comment or leave questions!!!

PS: If you click on any of the pictures, they will enlarge!!!!

18 Weeks!

So we are almost to the half way point! Reality is setting in and we have lots to do before the big day! We only have two more rooms (one being the nursey) to finish!!! I am so excited for everyone to come and visit and see all the hard work we have done to the house, and the back yard!!!! As for the baby, we are doing well. We continue to listen to the heartbeat every week, and this past Sunday it was 155 and the baby had moved up higher in my tummy!!!
My tummy is getting much bigger and everything is pulling forward! I have felt (butterflies) the baby move a few times, but we are both awaiting the day we can feel it all the time, and when its strong enough for Tom to feel it! Dont forger on Auguest 23rd and 1000am is our next appointment and we will find out if its a boy or girl (if the baby is laying right)!!! We will give all the grandparents a call, dont worry! Ultrasound pics and tummy pics will be up around week 20!! Love and miss you all!!!

16 Weeks!

Wait Tom, I am not ready!!! Haha!




The 4th month!! As you can tell the baby and I are getting much bigger! Today I had my final blood work done, we also found out that Tom is O positive blood and I am O negative blood, so at 7 months I have to get a big shot in my butt incase the baby gets Tom’s blood type. I am not looking forward to that!!! Other wise things are great! I have gain 5 ½ pounds so far!!! We bought our own Doppler so we have been able to hear the baby’s heart beat at home. On Sunday it was 155, so things are great! We go tomorrow to get our 4-month check up.
Tom and I are doing well. Tom is fighting a nasty cold right now, so lots of vitamin C for him. And I am just eating and peeing all day long! Only a few more weeks and we can finally know if it is a boy or girl!! August 23rd, mark it on your calendars!!!! Any guesses? We have names picked out (new ones), but we will share those when we find out what sex it is!!! Hope everyone is doing well, we miss you all. Next post will be at 18 weeks and next pictures and post will be at 20 weeks!!!

(PS I am showering, we just thought it would be fun to wear the same shirt in each pictures to see the true growth my tummy!)

14 Weeks!

So I made it through my 1st trimester!!! I am feeling so much better this week, but cant stop eating! I think the baby is growing and becoming much more active!! We still do not know if it is a boy or girl yet! We will find that out (hopefully if the baby is laying right) at our next ultrasound on Aug 23rd at 1000am! We cannot wait for that appointment! I go for more blood work on July 28th and then a check up on July 29th! Right now we are at a waiting stage and just trying to stay healthy! The next picture I will post at 16 weeks!! We love and miss you all!!!

12 Weeks!

We finally are done with the 1st three months! I am feeling better, but the nausea still comes and goes! Today we had our ultrasound and we are so excited! We are having one baby, and it was super active today once it woke up! It tossed and turned and even showed us its feet and hands! We go again at 16 weeks for more blood work (its routine for gentic testing) and then at 20 weeks we will have another ultrasound to make sure all the bones and organs and have grown correctly and we find out the sex at this time! We are so excited, and we hope you enjoy the pics!!!

I am 10 weeks pregnant this week. Even though I have been really sick, we are still very excited about our bundle of joy. More then anything I have been super sleepy and just wanting to eat every two hours. That has been a huge change from 2 meals a day to about 5 or 6 a day. Haha

We have had two doctors appointment and everything is looking great. Our next ultrasound is June 28Th at 10:00am. We are really excited for this one, because we will finally be able to see if it is one or two!!! And we get to hear the heartbeat! Stay tune for the update!
