Belly Pic #1

Here is the belly at 21.5 weeks. It keeps expanding everyday (as Ian loves to point out everyday). I look like I'm 1/2 asleep and my hair is a disaster area in this picture, but I hate pictures, especially if they are of my belly, so we just took 1 picture and it had to work.

Lisa also told me I had to make my blog more baby friendly, but I dont really like blue so I didnt want to do that, so hopefully the new font colors and the polka dots did the trick. If not, live with it because I am done for the day...

The Big News

Im starting early with the embarrassing photos of baby, I'm sure he wont like knowing this was on the internet, but what a cute way of telling the world that he is a boy!

Everything looks good, he is 12 oz, so evidently right on track for the june 2nd bday. Two hands, two feet, nose, lips, vital organs, so looking good! Got a few cute pictures of him (my favorite is the foot) so I'll post them all below.



The next big decision is the name, so I have a feeling Ian and I will take awhile with that one. We did go out and get him a few onesis today, ian found a batman one at GAP so he got the 0-3 months and the 3-6 month size, and is trying to talk me into buying him a starfleet uniform! I'm gonna need help keeping ian from geeking this baby out, im afraid....

20 Week Update

So this is a big week for baby, 2 appointments, 1 down, 1 to go...

Today was the monthly visit and all is going well. Baby's heartbeat is at 150 (so going down as it should every visit) and I am on track with weight gain. Still havent felt baby move yet but they assured me not to worry, so I wont, but am looking forward to finally feeling the first little flutters in my belly :) Been feeling great (aside from feeling fat) and actually have some energy back and not falling asleep everyday at 7pm. Still trying to get about 8 to 10 hours of sleep otherwise I am sleepy, and if I go too long without eating something the lovely feeling of needing to hurl comes rushing back, but otherwise am not complaining. I'll take this over the 1st 3 months for sure!!

Tomorrow is appointment #2, we go for the ultrasound and to find out the gender. I will be nice to see the baby again, last time it was at 8 weeks and it was just a tiny little dot, so it will be awesome to see baby looking like an actual baby. We will be sure to post some pictures along with the big news tomorrow, so stay tuned.
