It's A . . .

BOY!!! We are so thrilled that he is a healthy and very active little boy! We had our 2nd ultrasound in Fresno on Tuesday, the 26th. The tech, Katrina, asked us before we saw him if we wanted to know the sex, and of course being the planner that I am, I said YES! So, first picture we see, is his "stuff" with his hand getting ready to grab. Apparently that happens a lot with boys, at least that is what our tech said :). anyways, the appointment lasted a good 40 minutes and Katrina checked him out all over. His brain is perfect, his heart is perfect, his bladder is working, as well as his kidneys. He has no cleft pallet, and all looked amazing. He weighed in at 9 oz. And I am beyond thrilled that he is healthy!! Here are some pictures of our beautiful SON.

 

 

 



 And because Jaime asked for it . . . a tummy picture - 18 weeks 5 days . . .

So, I went bought the paint for the nursery yesterday and will start painting hopefully tomorrow.  The weather is perfect for me to paint since i can have all the windows open :) . . . I'm so excited to get everything ready for this little boy. 

17 weeks

Well, this week is one that I will be thankful is over . . . only because I have this nasty cold and am just wanting to feel better.  I have learned that being pregnant and sick is not a fun thing and seems to be intensified  without the ability to take the drugs I would normally take - DayQuil, NyQuil, etc. 

In other news, next Tuesday is our ultra sound, and I am so excited to see the little one again  .. . and hopefully be able to start calling it "he or she".  Most of the time we call it him, but until I get a more definate answer it's hard to just call it him :)

Our first ultra sound was December 18th, 2012 at LNAS obgyn. the best sound in the world was hearing the baby's heartbeat! Here are 2 picts of our little one at 8 weeks . . .

 

  This first one shows the baby's heartbeat :)

and the second one is a better pict of the baby

November 17, 2012

We found out that we are pregnant!  (3 days before Carl's birthday)!  We are both very excited and have made it through the first trimester.  The baby has a strong heartbeat, which is always amazing to hear!!  We have had 2 ultra sounds, one at 8 weeks, and one at 12 weeks.  I am currently 15 weeks and will have another ultra sound at my 18 week mark (where we will find out the sex :)  ) 

  I am currently staying home.  After we found out I was pregnant, we thought it best to have as little stress as possible, so work was done.  I miss it though.  I am trying to get things ready for the baby, though without knowing sex, it is just mostly rearranging things and organizing.  Looking forward to sharing more, hopefully I can get some ultra sound picts up soon!  :)
