Baby Update

We had our 16 week doctor's appointment today. It went really well. It was kind of hard to hear the heart beat again, so the doctor got this handheld ultrasound machine to show us that everything with the baby is fine. We saw the flicker of the heart beat on the monitor and the baby was moving around. The doctor even thought that it looked like the baby was waving at us. It has gotten a lot bigger since the last ultrasound we had. I could watch that little screen for hours. We have an official ultrasound scheduled at the hospital on November 25th. That is when we'll find out the sex of the baby. I can't wait for that. That will definately be something to be thankful for :)

13 Weeks

Today I woke up and felt just like I have for the past few weeks...fine. I got dressed, put on one of my new shirts that I got over the weekend, and my baby bump had grown quite a bit. I went to work and was there just a few minutes and someone told me how cute I looked. Then they stopped and said, wow your starting to show. It was exciting to hear someone else notice it besides me. The baby must've grown a bit over the last few days. People have told me that I look pregnant now. I was just feeling chubby, so it made me happy that I have a pregnant look now.

Over the weekend we went to the pumpkin patch and we picked out a pumpkin for the baby. That was really fun. Here I am with my baby belly and our baby pumpkin. It was also fun this year because we went with our nephews and Art's sisters. Hard to believe that Halloween is right around the corner.
