Bedding

We decided on a bedding set for the baby room this weekend. It is modern and very colorful and has polka dots, which is Mommy's favorite!! Hopefully the baby will like it too. We also ordered the baby's new crib and it should be here sometime within the next week. Can't wait to see how it looks.

A New Friend!

Today we found out that my friend Lindsay (who is 20 weeks pregnant) will be having a girl! We are so excited for Ben, Lindsay, Caden and Benjamin. That mommy was way out numbered and needed a girl on her side! Just kidding. Our baby will have either a new friend or a new girlfriend!!! You never know what the future may bring! Either way, I know our kids will love to hang out while us Moms have all our lunch and dinner dates together. Can't wait to see that beautiful little girl!

Doctor's Appointment

Well today marked the beginning of our 18th week. We also had another doctor's appointment. I have only gained two pounds so far, which the nurse said was just fine. I agree! I already was packing some extra weight before I got pregnant. The nurse took my blood pressure and said it was REALLY GOOD. She stressed that part, I was very happy about my blood pressure. She also measured my belly and said that my uterus was high and that was normal. Chad and I got to hear the heartbeat again and also got to hear some movements. It is so neat to listen to that little heart. She said we had a healthy normal baby and I was healthy too. We have our next appointment and official sonogram to check out the baby's anatomy on December 6th.

17 weeks

Today was our monthly picture tracking the belly. It is getting bigger, even though it just looks like flab there is a baby in there I swear! We even have pictures to prove it. When I lay down you can tell my tummy is getting harder and harder. It is neat to lay down at night and feel the lump.
