It's A....

Baby F cooperated and we now know what we're having!!!  Unfortunately (for those anxiously awaiting the news) we've come up with a special way to tell immediate family, which has to wait until we can make it to them on Saturday.  So no big announcement YET!  Look for the BIG REVEAL over the weekend to see if your guess was right!

The lady who did our ultrasound said she is only a tech and not a doctor, so she could not guarantee that Baby F is healthy, but she sure thought our little one had the most beautiful profile and was an adorable and active guy/gal.  Speaking of parts, she checked for MANY things (our scan lasted about 45 minutes or so) and the good news is Baby F has all the parts he/she should have.  Now, we're waiting on the measurements to come back to confirm everything looks good!  Although we do have one number to share, she estimated he/she weighs 10 ounces.

Mommy & Daddy counted 10 fingers, 10 toes, 2 skinny and long legs, 2 tiny arms, a round little belly, a heart that was pumping away (150 bpm), a cute little mouth (which was a bit difficult for her to get an image of, but she did not think there would be an issue with a cleft palette).  Baby F was kicking mommy with his/her heel and was quite active in there, but at times a bit uncooperative (for what the tech wanted to see/measure anyways) but it gave us all a good laugh.  I have a lot of photos, some better than others, but I think I should wait to post them until the big reveal on Saturday (that way no one guesses).  Other than that, all looked well and she felt I'm measuring right on track with my due date!

Check back with us in a few days for the BIG REVEAL and photos!

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...

One Decision Down... 18+ Years Worth Left to Go!

So, in the scheme of things this probably should have been one of the easiest decisions to make, but Kevin and I just could not agree on a crib bedding set (or theme for that matter) for our little man's nursery.  We finally got it down to two and left those on the computer to stare at for a few days.   Well, Kevin finally compromised (okay--he gave in) and my set won!  So, our son now has a bedding set and a safari themed bedroom! (on order).  Next decision (prone to more disagreements, I'm sure) is finding our little man a name!  If you ask Kevin, his name is Aisen, but I have yet to agree on that (more on the great name debate later!).  For now, here is the set we're ordering our son tonight!  What do you think?!
