Movin' All Around!

I am definitely feeling the baby move every single day. I feel her more when I am still or lying down. Austin was able to feel her move while we were on our last beach vacation. I had just had a frappachino and I was laying down to rest. She was moving all around so I called for Austin to come and see if he could feel it. He layed his head on my belly and I kind of told him what to expect. When I felt her, I didnt tell him just to see if he could feel her without me telling him. He looked at me and said "Was that it!?" I was like YES! I go back to the doctor next Wednesday for a check up. I am feeling pretty good. I really cant complain. I can feel when my body tells me that I have done too much and I need to lay down for alittle while.

We have had so many people ask us about the babies name or if the nursery is started. We do not have a name and we need some help moving guest furniture out of the baby's room before we can even start. We are working on both so bare with us! Believe me...we are ready to choose a name and stick with it.

Its a GIRL!

We went to the doctor Thursday June 10th to hear the results...boy or girl? We were going to start our day with an early breakfast at Cracker Barrel, but after getting a call from the doctors office the day before confirming my 8:00 appointment (it was actually 8:30), we decided to head on down to Birmingham and eat somewhere closer. We were running a bit late so we stopped at McDonalds (ha!), filled up on food and CAFFEINE, and headed to the doctor. After arriving at 8:00 and waiting until 8:30, we were called back. The nurse went through all the parts of the babys body saying PERFECT after every inspection. She moves from head to toe checking the baby. As we get closer to the legs, I can tell we are both getting anxious. We see the "area" on the screen and the nurse mentions that she sees 3 white lines. OK?? That meant nothing to us! As she types in GIRLLLLL, we say are you sure its a girl? We need you to be sure! She said Yes! And added there would be more between the legs if it were a boy. She said she was "showin' it off this morning"! Haha! We were excited! Right when we left we began texting and calling people like CRAZY! It was a fun day! Now since we dont have a name yet, we can atleast call her SHE instead of IT! :)

My Journey

I am into week 16. I have noticed a small change in my body and I thought I would post some pictures. I am out of school for summer break and I have so much on my Baby To Do List. I have to clean out closets and get rid of clothes that we dont wear. This week our goal is to get the baby room cleaned out as well as the closet and be ready to decorate when we find out the sex next Thursday. Also DEEP cleaning this house is on my list. It needs it! I have been so tired these past few weeks when I get home from work that I have let our house go. I have also started my summer classes (the last 3 of my masters degree) and I know I will be busy busy with that and making sure things are in line for graduation. What a year 2010 has already been! I cant wait to see what the rest of this year has in store for us.
