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!
