29 Weeks

I made a pumpkin shirt for our Halloween party at church!

27 weeks!

I can't believe how big I am getting... it is getting harder to move around, and I almost need help getting up. I don't even remember what it was like to be skinny and walk normal!

You have a name!

We have been coming up with tons of ideas since we found out we were having a boy, and we couldn't agree on any even the slightest bit. We both made lists of our favorite names and traded, hoping we could pick one we agreed on, and that didn't work either. A week ago I told Chris that I wasn't going to stress over it, and a name would come to us eventually. Today the name Rylan suddenly popped into my head, while I was trying to think of a name that was unique but not weird. I asked Chris if he liked it, and he loved it!! We decided a while ago that his middle name would be Christopher, so we wanted to spell his name Rylan instead of Rilan because Chris's middle name is Ryan.... so we have Christopher Ryan and Rylan Christopher!!!

20 weeks

I am really starting to show, I can't believe I am already half way through my pregnancy!! At this point I am really enjoying it, I can feel him moving around and hiccuping :)
I got a job at our airport, for something to do with my time and save up some extra money. I plan to only work until a month before my due date, or until I get so big I can't work anymore... I hope that isn't the case!

IT'S A BOY!!

We went and had our ultrasound today, with my mom and aunt Linda who was here from Califronia. We found out it is a BOY!!! Now we are all going to go crazy buying boy clothes and getting his room ready! :) Oh and Chris and I have to agree on a name....

12 Weeks along!

In this photo I am 12 weeks along, I plan on wearing the same clothes in each picture... until they don't fit anymore :) My pants are fitting even tighter, there aren't any that I can actually button anymore. I do have some maternity pants already, which I'm not quite ready for.... I can still wear my normal pants, I just have to secure them with a hairtie!

At 12 weeks, the baby is starting to have reflexes. If I poke my stomach, chances are you will squirm in response. The brain is forming rapidly, and the features are starting to look more human. From crown to rump, the baby measures just over 2 inches and is about the size of a lime.

7 Weeks along!

This is me at 7 weeks, I hear the bump isn't from baby yet, just from bloating :/ My pants are already fitting tighter though, it seemed like within a week I gained some weight already!

This photo was taken right before I went to California and got my first ultrasound from my aunt... the baby was so tiny, but we got to see and hear the heartbeat. It was amazing hearing it for the first time, I will never forget that experience!!

At 7 weeks, the babys hands and feet are starting to emerge from the sides of the body, and the liver is already making red blood cells. The baby has already doubled in size since last week, now about the size of a blueberry.
