It's a BOY!!!



21 WEEKS - The ultrasound was yesterday! It's a boy!! We were so shocked! Everyone was certain it was a girl. I'm really happy and excited, starting to think of how much fun Ryan will have with a little brother. He was pretty tickled about it too. He thought the ultrasound was cool, for about 8 minutes. Then he said "Can we go to Target?" (He was promised a trip to Target for being patient at the appointment)

Anyway, Christmas was wonderful for the most part. Ryan had a great time.

My step-dad was admitted to the ER on Christmas Eve with a blod clot in his leg. He had emergency surgery that afternoon. Turns out he had an anyerism which caused the clot. It's possible the he will lose his foot and some of his leg, since the blood flow was cut off for too long. Horrible situation, but at least he is alive. We should find out in a few days about his leg.

The three of us went to the ER to see my dad. Since daddy is in the ICU, Ryan couldn't go in. Ryan wasn't very happy about this and wanted to know why. I said "You have to be 12 to go into this part of the hospital." He frowned and said "Well YOU'RE not 12." He constantly cracks me up with his cute comments.

We are off from work all week this week. YAY! Need to get some stuff done around the house. I'm already dreading going back to work. The days off are moving too fast!

My belly at 19 Weeks

I have a wiggle worm in my belly

19 WEEKS - I've been feeling baby movement for several weeks now. It's so cool to know there is a little someone in there. He/she wiggles so much! It's also driving me a little crazy to not know if it's a boy or girl (however I have a strong feeling it's a girl).

I've been feeling pretty good lately. Not nauseous at all anymore. Been sleeping a lot though. I do love my sleep. My weight has stayed the same. Down 2 pounds from Thanksgiving, at 167. I'm pretty happy about that. I'd like to exercise, but I'm too lazy to get up off the couch.

I still have one pair of pre-pregnancy pants that fit. But boy they are tight. I mostly wearing lovely maternity clothes now. ick.

Last Saturday was my company's Christmas Party. It was pretty fun. We didn't stay very late though. Randy was ready to leave when we got there.

My ultrasound is December 27th. Looking forward to it!
