Counting down the days...

17 days until the big reveal... I can't wait! Mom moved in this weekend, and even though it is going to be CRAZY, I feel truly blessed to be with my momma and gma as I welcome this new little one into the world! I should mention that the BIG countdown is 164 days!!!! Is it weird that on Mondays that seems like forever, but on Thursdays it seems like no time at all?!?! Our lives are about to change...yay!

No BIG updates yet

I am updating my Mama Journal a lot for those of you who want to follow my random and slightly neurotic thoughts on pregnancy, but as far as the nitty gritty on Bump there is not much to report. I am 15 weeks in and the OB says we are both healthy and moving along quite nicely. It is driving me nuts that I can not work harder and make this go faster, but many wise mamas are telling me to slow down and enjoy this part too (so I will try to listen). In 25 days I hope to have BIG news to share about Bump, as we will have a, hopefully, revealing ultrasound....

Its Official

Well everybody... its official! If you were sworn to secrecy you are hereby released to tell anyone and everyone about our AWESOME news! A big thank you to those who actually managed to keep it a secret (gma) and a little thank you to everyone else who tried (its hard we know)! Now the waiting begins : )

On Wednesday November 28th we had our first ultrasound! Bump is 1.5 cm long and officially due July 10th. The ultrasound tech also said we were really lucky, because they rarely position themselves so that you can see their arm/leg buds. Ben said she (or he) is already working the spotlight, which is to be expected I suppose! Grandma likes to call this pose "Flat Cat." In any case, it was awesome! My absolute favorite part was getting to see and hear Bump's heartbeat... WOW!

I will be meeting with the midwife this Wednesday (12/5)... hopefully I won't be the most needy pregnant lady she has ever met!!!

Merry Christmas! This package will be arriving some time around July!
