I must look pregnant...

I'm so excited! For the first time at work today, a customer asked if I was pregnant! Haha, it is rediculous how happy I am that I may look like a pregnant woman instead of someone who needs to lay off the oreos and ice cream!

It's a Boy!

Well if you haven't already heard, we had our ultrasound this morning and found out we're having a little BOY! John is super excited and is already planning out the baby's first dirt bike and pellet gun. (Not even kidding and I'm sure there's more of that to come!) As for me... I'm slowly getting used to the idea of a 4:1 testosterone to estrogen ratio in the house! =)

So far, at 17.5 weeks, our little man is about a half pound and 4 inches long. I'm starting to feel little flutters every once in a while. Half the time I'm not sure if it's baby or lunch, but I'm sure it will start becoming clearer as we go!

These are our ultrasound pictures. I tried to label as much as I remembered, more for my sake than anything! We didn't get to take home a few of the good ones, including him showing us that he is 100% man! But all in all, it's SO much fun to see a healthy baby with all it's appendages and know something is happening. You can't help but watch and know that God is the one creating this little guy! Kinda ironic that on the way to the appointment, "Fingerprints of God" by SCC came on the radio. I've never liked that song, but it is incredibly fitting!

Our Buddy Angus

The other night we caught this guy dead asleep in his water bowl...

Then the next day, after frolicking in the mud puddle across the street, he got a bath!

Isn't he adorable! =)

16 Weeks!

Yay! 16 weeks! I just had to look it up because I wasn't sure how many weeks I was at! Great mom I'll be. I'll be the one who forgets the kid's birthday or to feed it or something!

So I literally just uploaded the pictures of me from today (yes, I found something acceptable to wear to church), but John says I don't look pregnant and I say I look rediculous... so we decided to toss them! Remember me in that hot little bikini last summer? I look the exact same. ;-)

In other exciting baby news, John and I went to the 2nd official Dr's appt on Friday and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat! Our little person came in between 155-160 bpm. I asked him if the wives tales were true about fast or slow heartbeats and he said "yep, about 50% of the time". So I guess we'll have to wait and see for sure - April 15th! We're very ready to find out what it is, but the waiting only happens once, so we might as well enjoy it!

Dreams...

So not even kidding, the last 3 mornings I have woken up to dreams of trying to get dressed for church Sunday morning and NOTHING fitting me! You'd think I was obsessing or something... I guess we'll see how tomorrow morning goes!
