First ultrasound (16 weeks)...

Well today has been the best day of my pregnancy so far! Chad and I went to a place in Bowling Green called "Precious Views." They do early 3D ultrasounds. Today we found out we are having a little BOY!!! We are all so excited. None of us had a preference, we just want him to be healthy. I have been thinking it was a boy since day one. Today we have proof. We saw the "plumbing" on the little guy. He looks perfect. His heart looks strong, his spine looks perfect, he has 5 fingers and toes, and long feet and arms (like his mommy and daddy)! Maybe he will make a great basketball player, golfer, or baseball player! I know he will be his daddy's new fishing buddy! That's for sure! The grandparents are absolutely tickled. Everyone is just happy to actually know what we are having! My next dr. appt. is Dec. 4th and they will do an ultrasound as well. It was just so amazing to see our little baby boy and to know that he looks healthy. One time he stuck his tongue out and was drinking fluids. So sweet. I will never forget those 30 minutes today as we tried to determine if it was a boy or a girl.

My baby bump at 15 weeks!

Update

Sorry I haven't been on here in a long time. My friend Sandra reminded me that I haven't given a baby update or anything! I am 14 weeks. The baby is due May 2nd....what a wonderful Mother's Day and birthday for me (May 9th). So far we got to hear the baby's heart beat, which was amazing, and do lab work. I go back on Nov. 11th for another regular checkup. Here's the exciting one: Mark your calendars for Nov. 25th! Hopefully our baby will cooperate and let us see if it is a boy or a girl! I can't wait! We really have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! I have been sick or nauesous pretty much the whole time until now. I believe I am getting over this! I do have a small baby bump or as I call it "a kangaroo pouch." I can tell it is growing every week. I would say by Christmas I will be wearing maternity clothes. This week our baby is the size of an orange. Last week it was a lemon. I am really looking forward to the holidays and finding out what our precious little thing is!
