Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day everyone!!

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Memorial day and most importantly remembers what this day is supposed to be about the men and women who have served our country so we can have the freedoms we have today!!

A blast from the past! This is Greg and I when he graduated from boot camp on Sept 11, 1998!!!

21 week check up

We went to the Dr's this morning! Little mister was very active again! I think I'm going to have my hands full when he get's here. When we go to the Dr and she's trying to get the heartrate he is very active and wiggly but when we had the ultrasound he wouldn't move or turn over for us!!

Heart rate was good 144 BMP. I have a follow up ultrasound next friday so they can try to see his heart which they couldn't the first time. Then in 4 weeks I get to have the very yummy glucose test!! I've heard it's like drinking very sugary fanta orange pop! We'll see!

Oh and I gained 5lbs!! I know I shouldn't be stressed about it because that's the first I've gained but when you spend the majority of your life trying to lose weight and then you have to gain, 5lbs in 4 weeks seems like it's alot!! The Dr said it's fine but I'm still slightly stressed over it!!
Any thoughts from other moms?

It's been awhile!

Ok so it's been a bit longer then awhile since I posted!!!
So much has happened, good and bad.
The best thing that has happened is that I'm Pregnant!! I'm due October 3, 2010. We are having a little boy!! Greg is VERY excited to be getting a son!! I too am very happy and very excited. In the last week or so my belly has just popped out of no where!!!
Here I am at 20.5 weeks.

I'm feeling really good, I actually feel pretty normal, aside from the occasional back pain and numbness from when Little Mister lays on my siatic nerve!!
We have decided to keep names a secret until Little Mister arrives, partly because we want to see him before we decide! So until then we refer to him a Little Mister. Here are some ultrasound pictures of him.

His adorable little foot!

The scary view, when he looked right at us!!

Our Little Mister! He was very stubborn and wouldn't turn over, he stayed upside down the whole time!!

Needless to say we can not wait for our little one to get here, in the meantime we have to get his room ready!

I'll be posting more often now with baby updates!!
