over half way there...24 weeks!

Well, we are getting there! I'm feeling good just kind of ready to be done...I know, I know, it's early. I think I'm just getting excited to meet my child and get my figure back! Putting my shoes on is a chore these days. I mainly wear slip on shoes now.

22 weeks and 5 days!

Well, these aren't the best photos....seems that baby wasn't wanting to cooperate (takes after Daddy already!). The first photo is a profile with the little hands up above and the second photo is the head at a different angle.

20 weeks!

Well, here we are just about half way through the pregnancy.
I'm wearing my Grandma Wernli's maternity night gown...I'm so glad the styles have changed from 60 + years ago!

The other two photos just show how I continue to grow. I'm also now feeling the baby...little butterflies in my tummy. Love to feel the flutters of this precious life growing inside me!

20 weeks 3-D ultra sound

This is the profile of our baby! We also saw the spine, kidney, lungs, heart, arms, femur, feet...we pretty much saw it all~except for the genitals~that's a secret until delivery!

16 weeks

Well, I'm now 16 weeks along in the pregnancy. The baby is about the size of an avocado and has now developed finger nails/toe nails...I've developed a belly! There is no hiding it now!! I'm feeling great these days, hope it lasts! Tomorrow we have a doctor appointment to hear the heart beat and to have more tests done. I hope we get to see the little one too.

12 weeks!

Well, it's been 12 weeks and I'm starting to get my energy back and the nausea is going away...

1st ultrasound

This was amazing! We saw the little heart beat, legs kick and arm move. The nurse practioner thought she saw two sacks...twins....yikes! After the doctor came in and looked we were told at this point it looks like one healthy, happy baby. Praise God! Just thankful that the baby is healthy and growing appropriately for this stage. These photos were taken at 9 weeks, 4 days. The baby is fully developed at this point, just needs to keep growing and getting bigger.

8 weeks!

Well, it's been 8 weeks and my jeans don't fit anymore. The most comfortable thing to wear these days is sweat pants. I don't have much of a tummy yet but just feel bloated and thick.

found out we are pregnant!

Well, we just found out we are 3 weeks, 5 days pregnant! I made Steve take a picture of my tummy...of course there is nothing to see yet but I wanted to remember this day and the jeans I fit into! We are SOOO excited for this blessed gift!
