little kicker

He kicks & moves so much now, I love it! It's my favorite part!!

Well... there really has not been much to write about lately. We went to the Doctor but we didn't get an ultra sound so no new pictures this time :( She said that everything is going good though. I had to drink the sugary drink. It wouldn't have been so bad except they gave me fruit punch & I really don't like that stuff.

So I think we have a name picked out for sure ..... Troy! Both Brandon & I really like it & we tried looking for other ones but none of them seemed right. Its all going by really fast though with picking out names & just getting ready. I went & registered last week. On Tuesday I went with Bobbie & Mihai to Target. It was a lot of fun getting to pick stuff out & Mihai was so excited! she kept going ahead of us & bringing things back she thought we needed & telling us we didn't need to register for somethings we could just buy them now :) Then on Saturday I went with my Mom & Jenna to Babies R us. Mom loved it, she wanted to scan everything but its her first grand baby so I wouldn't expect any less excitement ;) oh & they gave us a really stupid scanner, half the time I couldn't get it to work & I had to have Jenna use her scanning skills!!

I'm starting to get our room ready too, like packing up stuff I don't need & then I'm going to have Brandon rearrange it so we can put the Bassinet in there & stuff. It's all so exciting!

Baby Count Down

its a BOY!!

Yup, He's a boy!! Brandon &  I went in for an ultra sound last Friday when I was 19 weeks along. Everything is good, he's healthy, has 10 toes & 10 fingers, weighs 9oz, & likes to move around a lot. We took my Grandma Jesser with so she could see & she had the best time ever, it was so cute! She's never seen an ultra sound before since they didn't have them back then so this was amazing to her & I loved sharing it with her. They relied on the old needle on a string method to find out if it was a boy or a girl which I'd sort of like to try, just for fun to see if it works.

Ahhh! he just kicked me or something, I SAW it right now! I'm listening to the music on Alyssa's blog & he started moving around a lot so I pulled up my shirt & BUMP, my tummy moved a little!!!! I bet he likes the music :)  Well anyways, 

they took some 3D pictures for us which are so cool. Here you can really see him, he would put his knees up to his face & then open his mouth like he was going to try to eat them, Silly boy. 

He looks a little like Brandon already if you ask me.

Well we haven't picked out any first names yet but his middle name will be Michael after Brandon's dad. We kind of like Troy for a first name but we're not sure yet. I want to look around more & see what else we like. Now I am 20 weeks, 5 months already! It's going by pretty fast but I can't wait until he is here. My tummy is starting to grow a lot, it feels bigger every day, and especially after I eat a meal lol. It's funny cause I 

can tell strangers are start to notice like at work & stuff but they won't say anything they just give you a funny little smile. Well I need to put a picture of my tummy up here before my mom has a cow!! This is from Alyssa's birthday when I was 19 weeks. I need to take a better on cause you can't tell so much here & it's a little bigger now :)

I had to go to the doctor today just to finish the first trimester tests, So we got some new pictures :) In the top picture the baby turned its head but showed us its little hand again. & During the visit the baby had the hic-ups! It was so cute to see it bouncing around! They also

    said they might be able to tell if the baby is a boy or a girl!!! BUT some very stubborn baby was not having that. Baby kept its legs crossed the whole time and was pretty much staying in the same position. So there was  no way of telling, but hopefully next time we'll find out :D So to the left here you can see the baby sticking its legs out but still keeping the feet crossed of course. 

Now, when I'm talking about my baby I like to call the baby "he" cause that's what I think, but I don't know & everyone always assumes I've found out for sure. So I say "it" & then everyone is like "oh don't call the baby "it" but what should I say? I can't really talk about the baby without saying it he or she :) Anyways to the right is a Valentine Day card that Mihai made for the baby. I thought you would all like to see it cause its so cute!

As of now, I am 13 weeks & I'm due October 2nd So I'll keep you all updated!!

Say Hello

This is our little Baby :) !!! 

We went to the doctor on Friday & we got to really see our baby for the first time! You can see the little face & the baby put its hand up in front of its face so just to the left you can see little finger prints :D The baby was moving around so much & it was so cute to watch! The bad part about the doctor visit was that I found out I lost too much weight. I was so sick these past few months I had a hard time keeping food down. I lost 5 + lbs. So that was really not good but since about last week or so its been getting better. I can eat more little meals & I don't get sick very much so I'm happy that is behind me. I'm starting to get cravings too. Its started with bagels & cream cheese & captain crunch. Yesterday at work I had to have one of our soft pretzels, it was so good though!

Surprise :)

On February 6 Brandon's sister Heather brought me a test home from the Doctors office she works at, just in case. I'd been feeling a little sick and was about a week late but i didn't really think anything of it. But surprise, it was positive!!

It wasn't planned but Brandon & I are very excited. We went to the doctor on Feb 13th. We had the first ultrasound & heard the heart beat. It was so amazing to see it & to actually hear the little heart beat. So here is our first picture of our little baby!!

So far, not much has been going on. I get sick, A LOT. But it will all be worth it in the end. I don't know why they call it morning sickness though, its more like all the time/when ever it wants sickness.

My friend Chelsea kind of gave me the idea for this blog, she said I needed a baby on the way album or something so everyone can get monthly updates of my pooch lol, so I don't have a very noticeable tummy yet but I'll keep you all in the know :)
