Baby Shower

I know, I know...it's been awhile...I've been so busy being pregnant that it's hard to write about being pregnant!

Everything is going well...We have the nursery almost all set up and I should have some pictures to post on that next week hopefully. However, I've finally decided to post some pictures from our baby shower that was back in October. We had a great bbq full of friends and family. It was a great time and I really have to thank my parents again for letting us storm their house and make a mess again!

2nd Ultrasound

As I previously promised, here are pictures from our 2nd Ultrasound that was done 8/28/08. Everything looked great even though he had to get shaken up a bit so we could get some good pictures. I'm glad the sonographer knew what she was doing because I still can't see any "boy parts" but apparently she did! I promise to have some fat belly pics up next week so my mother will stop following me around with a camera!

It's a boy!

Yay! Mike and I went in for our second ultrasound last week (pictures will be up this week) and found out that we were right and our little one is a boy! Now the shopping and name negotiating begin! I will post more this week and maybe even a picture of my super fat belly! I'm now 21 weeks along (past the 1/2 way point, yay!) so there's definitely no more hiding it!

Baby blog? What's a baby blog?

Ah...the many things that the husband of a pregnant woman doesn't understand. When I mentioned to Mike that I'd be starting a blog about our pregnancy all I got was a quizzical look. Anyway, I'll be posting here occasionally with pictures, general info about what's going on with me and the baby and probably some whining and complaining. Mike and I are both really excited to be parents and I'm glad technology is allowing us to share some of our journey with our friends and family that are not here to see it first hand (lucky!) and those of you that are here in Albuquerque with us (my apologies).

The pictures in this post are from our first ultrasound which was done on 6/4/08 of our little guy (we're both convinced it's a boy so of course it will be a girl). I'm currently in the 12th week and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel that is the 1st trimester. I don't think I'll be missing the nausea, but I did already have to buy maternity jeans this weekend...sigh...
