27 weeks

I am very aware it has been way too long sine I updated my blog! Things have been crazy busy at work, I have been teaching the ABO prep course, and all of the baby stuff of course.

The nursey is almost done, and it looks beautiful thank to all of Colin's hard work, we have also been getting all of our little projects we have been wanting to get done, over with since we know we won't have any time for awhile with the baby and all. The house looks fab with all of the new landscaping, flowers and furniture, I couldn't be happier.

Colin and I started going to birthing classes almost two weeks ago and I think he may be finding them more informative then he expected! Ha Ha Ha.

We are going to be having a 4D sonogram a week from today and I can not wait to see what our little boy looks like!

Baby Froelich is getting so big and still measuring a week or two ahead. I am praying this means he comes a little early (and healthy of course) even though I know it probably wont happen!

I started going to my Dr everytwo weeks this month and everything is going great he says I am even a little boring with my pregnancy going so well (I sure don't mind).

I am getting quite the belly now, but I am loving it, it doesn't hurt that I can still brag that I weigh the same now as I did the day i got married...hmmmm I wonder if my wedding dress would fit! LOL The really nice part is I still weigh over 25 lbs less then I did at my heaviest (which was when I first moved to KC). Not bad for 7 months pregnant! :)

I am very excited I have so much going on this month and next month other having Dr.'s visits every two weeks,Colin and I have two more birthing classes, our 4D sonogram, I am having my baby shower on May 23rd, my mom is coming to town, then my dad is coming to town and then I have my work baby shower! It's all going by so fast I hope I can enjoy everything as much as I would like to.

20 Weeks

I know it has been awhile. My hormones have been going crazy lately, I am either extremely, happy, sad or mad there is no in between! Ha Ha Ha.
My little boy and I are now at 20 weeks (and 2 days) he really enjoys jumping on my poor bladder. I am kind of sad that it is all half over already. Our little guys little kicks still feel alot like my tummy growling so I still have a hard time believeing he is in there, I still look at all of his sonograms and think "That's really in there?"
The nursery is finally painted (after 8 cans of diffrent colored paint). Colin and I have been looking at cribs and furnitue again, there are always new sets coming out and I don't want to miss out on something I love.
Colin has started working nights which is very hard for me, I cried for about 2 hours the first night I was home alone, I am greatful for all my wonderful friends and neighbors they have all been been very supportive. I still miss my husband though!
I have been trying all night to load pictures of the nursery, but it is not working, maybe next blog! :)

It's a......

I woke up Thursday the 25th, all nervous about the sonogram and if the baby would "show the goods". Colin didn't have to work but he got up before I did he looked at me all upset and said "I can't go back to sleep I'm too excited"! I laughed a little and told him to go and start buying somethings we needed for the nursery, to keep him busy. I had to work a couple hours which of course drug on, and on. Colin got to the Dr.'s office before I did. I was so worried about the baby not moving enough for us to see the sex so I may have cheated a little bit I bought a little bit of diet coke (yes with caffine, and a ton of ice) and drank it right before I went into the Dr.'s office so the baby would move more...lol It worked the baby wouldn' stop moving! lol........It's a boy! He is already loved so much, by his daddy and myself! He was so adorable moving around at the sonogram. We counted all the fingers and toes again (well I did). I may have cheated a little bit I looked at othe peoples sonogram pics saying if it was a boy or girl so as soon as the tech put "him" up on the screen I knew it was a boy, but I was in complete shock and didn't say anything, and then the tech said "it's a boy" and Colin started grinning from ear to ear!
We are still trying to figure out names and all, but I think we may have narrowed it down, but we are kind of keeping it a secret for now. :)
Colin started working on the nursery as soon as we found out, it is looking great, I am patiently waiting untill it gets done, so I can start the decor! I will post pics once we get closer to getting done.

17 weeks

I am now 17 weeks and 2 days.
I had my Dr.'s appt. yesterday, things went great baby is doing very well. We get to find out the sex of the baby next week! That's right I said next week, we are going in Thursday the 25th! I am so excited and scared all at once, I think when we know the gender it will all be a little bit more "real". Things are going so well for Colin and I, we couldn't ask for anything more.
Colin as always is very sweet and understanding and I don't think he could ever say "No" to me. Ha Ha Ha All I have to say is if he is this way for me if we have a little girl, she will be so spoiled by him and a big time daddy's girl! :)
We finally got our new mattress which feels great on my back! We got our new dining room table, chairs, and our new stove, my house now feels complete and ready for baby! (Well except babys room!)
I can't wait until next weekend when we can paint the babys room and get the furniture and get it all set up!
Hopefully if baby wants to coopeate my next post will, be all about the babys gender!

16 Weeks

I have almost finished 15 weeks! Colin and I are very happy my belly is finally showing enough that I look pregnant, I am so proud of my belly. :) I never thought I would be one of those women who love being pregnant, but I am! I am enjoying every moment. :)
Colin has been just fantastic to me, I can't believe he rubs my back every night, bakes, and cooks for me all the time. I am such a lucky wife!
I can't believe the things that happen when you are pregnant, I mean you read about them and think oh they can't be that bad but they are! I have become so forgetful and such a clutz I can't even believe it! Colin always tells me "it's okay, you are losing brain cells". :)
I will be posting some pictures of the new nursery furniture, bedding, and colors soon!

Busy, busy, busy

Well Colin and I have been so busy this last week. Baby and I are now done with 15 weeks today, which means I am at the the start of my 16th week and 4 months! It is exciting only 5 more weeks until we can find out the sex of the baby! Once we know the sex I can pick out the crib bedding (which I already have narrowed down). We offically have the nursery room all cleaned out and ready to go, we have come to an agreement on the decor for the walls for the baby's room and on the furniture. I think we will order the furniture and start painting the room after the next Dr.'s appt. Colin was so sweet last week he offered to make a large toy chest for the nursery and even put together kind of a plan for the design, I can' t wait until he starts on it, I hope it's soon.
I have decided I am so spoiled Colin rubs my tummy and my back everynight before bed, but I think he may be getting some pregnancy symptoms too! He has been having odd cravings at weird times, a couple nights ago he made a homemade chocolate cake with homemade icing! Yummy!
I am getting quite the belly now, I have gained another two pounds, the nice thing is it's only in my belly all my jeans still fit (as long as I don't zip them!) The girls at work have already started talking to the baby and touching my little belly it is so cute!

Kick!

I got to feel the baby kick for the first time last night it was so awesome and I was so excited, although I feel kind of bad Colin can't feel the baby yet. That just means we will have yet another awesome day some where down the line when Colin can feel the baby too.
When I came home today Colin had finished moving rooms to get the nursery ready...he changed his mind and put the nursery in the room I had originally wanted (I didn't even ask him to!) he has decided now that that room would work better. Ha Ha ha. Now that the room is all cleared out I can't wait to get our furniture to put in there, I would feel much more prepared then!
I am still only at about 4 lbs that I have gained which is not bad for 3 1/2 months already. All 4 lbs are all just on my baby bump so all my jeans still fit except I can't button or zip them, I had to buy my first pair of maternity jeans just to be comfortable so my zipper doesn't doesn't dig in.
I am still waiting very impatiently for my Dr.'s appt. so we can find out if it's a boy or a girl!
