Oh boy.. It's a BOY!

Well I swore it from the very beginning, and I was right! I must have this super gender intuition.. I have never been wrong :)


Waiting for this doctor appointment almost killed me. I think that I am probably the most impatient person ever. The ultrasound was sure worth the wait though :)


The first thing the ultrasound tech told us was, "Wow. This child is a spaz." Awesome. He had such personality for only being 16 weeks along :) I have a feeling we will have our hands full.


It did not take her long to get a clear picture. Our little guy is not shy whatsoever :) He had the loooongest legs, I was amazed that I couldn't feel his acrobatics already:) It was so awesome to finally find out what we were having! Now let the buying begin..


After our appointment, we invited everyone over for a gender reveal. It was so nice of everyone to make it out, and thanks to those who were there in spirit!












It was such a great day! Blake is so excited to have a little soccer player :) He will be a momma's boy though, sorry Blake!

13 Weeks!


Well, we weren't expecting to be able to see our adorable little one today. We had our 13 week appointment, expecting a quick check up. When our doctor got out the Doppler to check out the heartbeat, he moved it around for a second then asked me, "Did we decide that your measurements were right on with your due date last check up?". Then he muttered something about the Doppler acting up and went out into the hall to grab the ultrasound machine. At first, I was just happy to see that cute little baby on the screen (even though the ultrasound quality is horrible) When I couldn't see that little flutter that I saw the first time, my heart sank. He pulled up the heart beat monitor screen, no sound. Adjusts and pulls it up again, no sound. Of course, I start to panic. He reassures me that the baby is moving and it surely wouldn't do that if it didn't have a heartbeat. After what seemed like hours (it was probably seconds), we hear that beautiful heart beat. I have never been so relieved in my life!

According to the doctor, the baby seems to be growing and healthy :) I am so glad the appointment ended better than it started.

We scheduled our appointment to find out the gender on October 30th. These next couple weeks will drag, I'm sure :)
