So... Time for the big news I guess! I think most everyone knows now.. but we are pregnant! We found out back on my birthday in April, which was exciting news for my birthday, and then we waited a few weeks to tell our families, then we waited till we were about 12 weeks to tell everyone else. And I just havent had a lot of time to post or I totally would have put these up so much earlier! So these first set of sonogram pictures were taken when the baby was like 13 weeks old back in early June.. This was also the first time we heard the heart beat, so it was really fun!


This is a picture of my belly at almost 21 weeks, which was today btw. It totally does not look big in this picture at all.. but it feels huge! Pictures don't show how big it really is..


I cant figure out how to rotate the pictures but this sonogram was taken about a week ago, so when the baby was almost 20 weeks. At this sonogram...... we found out that we're having a BOY! We both totally thought it was a girl the entire time, I don't know why we thought that, but turns out it was a little boy. So in the picture on the left you can see the bottom of his little foot, and the picture on the right is kind of hard to see but it is the bottom of his bum with his legs coming up, this is the picture where we found out that it was a boy (as you can see)!



This next sonogram picture is of the baby's face head on, which looks kind of scary, he looks like a skeleton. Then the next one is my favorite, he has his hand up by his face (maybe he is sucking his thumb or something), but I just think this one is really cute!


Then this last one is fuzzy but it is just a picture of his profile. During the sonogram, he was totally moving his lips around in this one, it was so wierd how well we could see it!




Anyway so I am due December 23rd so hopefully he is not born on Christmas! If he is born before Christmas I would be very happy because then he would be with us on Christmas, but as long as he comes healthy I won't complain. I am also graduating December 18th, which is also the last day of finals for both Nate and I, so hopefully he doesnt come too early either. Nate is taking a winter session class too, which meets like 4 hours a day over the Christmas break, so he might have to miss class depending on when he comes. However, I heard planning things for a baby doesn't always go so well so we will just have to go with the flow! And we are so excited to be having a baby boy, Nate is so excited to teach him lots of boy stuff!

Yay! We are so excited for you guys! We totally thought we were having a girl until we found out it was a boy. Little boys are amazingly sweet! We've got pictures on our blog if you are interested. Pregnancy, labor, and birth are definitely worth it! Let me know if you need anything or have any questions! I had lots and have found answers to most of them. Some people make having a baby a lot more expensive and a lot more trouble than it has to be.
