Julia's Baby Shower

This weekend was the shower for my good friend Julia and sweet Baby Sophia! She will be here in about 5 weeks and we are so excited for this new arrival. I hosted the shower at my house along with 5 other girls and of course forgot to take a lot of pics but I will post the few that I did take. She had a great turnout...and got lots of great things for her nursery. I can't wait to go see it soon!

Lastly, I will leave you with the latest pic of my sweet Wrigley! He is adorable! This is how he chooses to sleep when he is on the couch. I know, I know...so many pics of the dogs. I better get them in now before our new little one comes in May. I'm sure they won't get near as much air time!

13 week appointment!

Just wanted to give an update. We had another appointment this morning. Last week was the sonogram to test for Down's Syndrome. We didn't actually have the prenatal visit until this week. Everything is completely normal!! Woo hoo! The doctor said that our baby has a 1:10,000 chance of having Down's....which is about as good as it gets. We heard the heartbeat again..a speedy 140bpm. From now on until about 19 or 20 weeks, the appointments are rather uneventful.

On another note, Happy Birthday to my sweet, spoiled Macadoo!! He is 4 years old!

The Big News!!!

Well, after an entire year of having this website, I have finally decided to start a blog. I think I have been waiting on some major blogworthy event to occur or something to write about that people will actually want to read. About 2 months ago, I finally decided that with a "blogworthy event" or not, I was starting this darn thing anyway. About a week after that, I found out I was pregnant.

That's right......PREGNANT!!!! Woo hoo...finally!!! The event I have been waiting for! So, without further delay, here comes the blog of sweet Baby S!!!

We had our 12week appointment today, and our little dude/dudette was moving around like crazy. It was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Its little hands were just going crazy. It looked like at some point it was sucking its thumb. We could never get the baby to move into a profile position..it just stared at us the whole time with the "alien" face. But that is my baby, so nobody else can say that! We did get the most perfect picture of the two little feet next to each other. You can even see the toes! Once I learn how to scan a picture on this thing, I will post that! Here is a belly shot of me at 12 weeks. I think I am showing very early, but oh well. I keep telling myself that God made us all different. And yes, I am different from all of my friends who didn't wear maternity clothes until 20 or so weeks. Sheesh!

That's all for now!
