19 Weeks!

Wow I can't believe I am almost to the half way point in this pregnancy!! It's going so good and I really love being pregnant! =) I knew I would! We got exciting news this week.....baby is a GIRL!!! We were so shocked! We both really felt like it was going to be a boy!! We had a gender reveal party that night for our family.  We made cupcakes and filled them with pink filling, everyone took a bite at the same time to find out that it as a girl! It was so much fun!! We are still searching for the perfect name for our little princess. I went shopping some this week and baby girl already has about 7 outfits hanging in her closet!! SO fun!! I didn't gain any weight this past month so I felt like that was a good thing, considering I gained 6 pounds the month before! So far I have only gained 9 pounds this entire pregnancy.  We have another appointment on December 28, they are going to do another ultrasound because they didn't get a clear view of her heart.  I am excited to see how much she will have grown by then and also double check that it's a girl! =)

16 Weeks!!

Today I am 16 weeks! 4 months!! Wow! In just one more month I will be 20 weeks, halfway through the pregnancy! That just blows my mind! I am feeling really good lately, my energy level has finally came back up so that is helping a lot!! We have an ultrasound scheduled for November 21 and we are counting down the days! We can't wait to see how big the baby has gotten and also find out if it's a girl or a boy! 
I felt the first tiny baby flutters this past week.  They were very light and quick but it kept happening for a few minutes and I knew what it was! =) It was very cool and a sweet moment!
The baby is now the size of a avocado and measuring about 4 1/2 inches long and 3 ounces.  Baby can also now hear noises and may be startled by loud noises. If that's the care then I am sure my class scares baby on a daily basis! Next time I updated we should know if we are having a son or a daughter!! Can't wait!
