4 Months!



In my baby book there is a picture of mom's stomach and dad had written 3 1/2 months on the side. So I thought it would be fun to recreate that picture for our baby. When I asked Adam to write 4 months on my stomach with a Sharpie he gave me the strangest look! After I explained it to him he thought it was a neat idea!




I'm still feeling great. I told my mom that I know the baby comes from her gene pool because I'm already craving fruits and veggies! Adam took me to the grocery and I grabbed every produce item in sight! He kept murmuring something about we could always come back for more- but I needed all of them right then!

Welcome to our blog!

Hi friends and family!
Adam and I are so excited that we are expecting a baby! The due dates keep changing. My book says March 13, the doctor says March 14 and the sonogram says March 16. Whatever the date it will be almost certain we will be interrupting March Maddness. We had our first doctor visit at the beginning of September. After the blood work and exam the doctor told us everything seems to be going great. We heard the heart beat and it was 145bpm which is very healthy! I have been so fortunate not to experience any negative pregnancy symptoms so far. My stomach is not looking very flat anymore though. They said around this time I might start feeling flutters from the baby, but I haven't yet. At 14 weeks we had our first ultrasound. I couldn't see the screen very well, but Adam said the little one was moving around so much! I guess it was still dancing from the reception?! We were able to get a great profile picture. My family thinks it looks like a boy. We go for our next doctors visit in a few weeks for routine bloodwork. In November we will have our second ultrasound to find out if we are having a little boy or girl!
