It's a Boy!



Well, looks like the majority of people guessed wrong! We're having a boy! We're completely thrilled (of course!)! The little guy was jumping all over the place during the ultrasound but we got a lot of great pictures of him......ahhhh, feels so nice to not have to say 'it' anymore. We didn't have to see the doctor for anything which is a good sign that he's healthy and developing normally. Now I can finally get down to business on decorating the nursery. The crib and changing table are on their way (thanks Mom & Dad!!!). I'll probably head to the fabric store at some point this week to pick out fabric for the curtains, bed skirt, etc. It will still be a few months until it will be photo ready but don't worry, I will definitely post some pictures once it is. Oh, we don't have a name picked out yet. A list is being compiled but we figured we have 5 months to pick one out so we're not rushing. Life is good.

16 weeks!


I had my 16 week appointment today. It was short and sweet. Baby's heart rate was about 150. Still don't know if it's a boy or girl yet but I do know it's a ninja! As soon as the doctor pressed the Doppler instrument to my stomach the baby did a little roundhouse kick....it even made a little "swoosh" sound like in a martial arts movie :). Doctor said everything looks and sounds great. Only 13 more days until the ultrasound! It can't come soon enough!

Trip to New Mexico


Drew and I traveled to New Mexico for the Labor Day weekend to visit our friends that just had a baby themselves. We had a great time hanging out and getting a little baby practice in with Bella while we where there. I think this weekend really helped make us feel even more ready to have a baby. Well I'm definitely starting to grow a belly now! God Bless Becky for lending me all of her maternity clothes! On another exciting note I think I'm starting to feel some slight movement from the baby! Just a little fluttering every now and then but I'm pretty sure that's what it is. My 16 week appointment is next week! Seems like ages between appointments now. Only 19 days until our next ultrasound!

Just for Fun


Had a great time at my cousin's wedding a few weeks ago. Found out all three girls on the Miller side are expecting! Here is a pic just for fun! Two weeks until my next appointment. Feeling good. Getting a Buddha belly!
