It's a GIRL!!!

On Tuesday, the 17th, I felt the baby move for the first time! It was a pretty cool feeling and since then she has been moving around alot!

On the 19th, we went for my 3D ultrasound and found out it was a girl! The Dr. said everything looks good with her except she was being stubborn so he couldn't get a good look at her spine. We will go back in 4 weeks to see if we can see it then. She was kicking her feet and moving her arms the whole time... It was adorable! We are going to name her Lily Grace <3

Only 5 more days!!!!!

Only 5 more days until we go to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl! We can't wait!!!!

16 week appointment/Christmas is over/New Years!!

On the 27th of December we went for my 16 week appointment. Not much went on during this appointment... We listened to the heart beat and I had blood drawn. When he listened to the heart beat he said it still "sounds" like a girl but we will go on the 19th of January to hopefully find out for sure! He said I had gained 1 more pound which makes it 4 pounds all together and he said that was great :)

On another note, we took down our Christmas decorations today and by the time we got done taking all of the decorations off of our dead tree it looked like....

THIS!!

Also, here is a picture of our John Deere village...

And lastly, HAPPY NEW YEARS!!! We went to dinner with my parents, went to my grandparents for a little while, and then went home to watch a movie and then watch the ball drop!

12 week appointment!!!

I went for my 12 week appointment today and we got to hear the baby's heart beat for the first time!! He said that going off the heart beat it was a toss up between a boy and a girl, but since my first sonogram showed the heart beat around 180 it might be a girl... we will find out at 20 weeks! He said my weight gain was good and my blood pressure was a little bit high but still in normal range so everything is good!

First dr's appointment and sonogram

I thought November 2, 2011 would never get here! At 1:30 p.m. I had my first sonogram and it was amazing!! We saw our baby (which looked like a little peanut) and saw it's heart beat on the screen and it all became so real! The lady doing the sonogram told us that our baby was "hanging upside down like a monkey" It was one of the coolest things I have ever experienced. After the sonogram appointment, I had my first dr's appointment. The nurse went over a bunch of paper work with me, took some blood, and gave me my flu shot. Then Nathan and I went in and talked to Dr. Strider. He told us what to expect and asked us a bunch of family history questions. When we were all done with that we went in the exam room and he did another sonogram just so he could see the baby. The heart beat was around 180 and the dr. said that was great! My due date is June 8, 2012 which is pretty cool because it is Hartley's birthday!
