21.5 weeks!

Well, we are officially over half-way point to meeting Baby C! I am feeling great and looking more pregnant these days!

21.5 weeks

We received the crib and dresser yesterday and of course I wanted to see it all together last night! Luckily, I have a wonderful, patient husband that was more than willing to be my handyman! But I was able to help a little by cooking dinner and taking the warning stickers off! :) I wasn't able to get a great picture of it because we still don't have the room arranged how we want it, and still need to paint the walls so for right now, it's all disheveled. But here are a few pics from assembly...



Finished product! Proud father-to-be!

I was a little worried that I wouldn't like the color because I was originally looking for something a bit darker but it turns out WE LOVE IT! It is absolutely perfect! I'll post more pictures as we get more work done on the Nursery but so far, so good!

Oh, here's a little fun fact for you all....I can't believe I didn't realize this until a few weeks ago but Baby C is due on September 27th, the day Raine and I met in Texas, exactly 5 years later! Kind of crazy, huh?! It must be one special day for us! We are heading to Texas next week for my brother's wedding and will finally get to go back to the infamous picnic table/restaurant where it all began. We will be sure to get some good pictures to post. Have a good weekend! xo

IT'S A BOY :)

Our first family picture!

This morning was SO MUCH FUN! How NEAT to see that little boy on the screen, looking PERFECT! We saw the 4 chambers of the heart, the liver, bladder, brain, and of course his little male parts :)

The Ultrasound Tech didn't feel like she needed to explain "gender"



We are so excited and now I am ready to get a move on the Nursery! We bought a crib last Sunday partly because it was the last one they had in stock of this particular crib, and it could have worked with either gender.


There it is, in Chocolate and we also bought the long/short dresser in the back. It will arrive on May 19th, and I can't wait to see it in the room.

We haven't decided on a name quite yet, but will keep you all posted! Thank you for all the prayers and support, we are feeling VERY loved! xo

19 Weeks!

Next Tuesday is the BIG DAY when we find out if Baby C is a boy or a girl! And I am glad because I really don't think I could wait any longer! I have finally started to show to the point where people at work are asking me "Are you pregnant?" Baby C is now 6 inches long and the size of an heirloom tomato. I can tell he/she is getting stronger because he/she has been REALLY active the past few days. AND Raine finally got the feel a kick last night...It must have been the coffee ice cream that I indulged in :)

Here is a picture of my dear friend Jodi and I, taken last Sunday after Church. She is expecting 2 identical twin boys, due in September as well!
