Ultrasound

Today we went and had an ultrasound done because at my last dr. appt, our dr. said that I was measuring a little bigger and she wanted to check the size of the baby and measure her fluids. Everything turned out great! The fluid count was a 16, and the Tech said anything between a 5-20 is not too high or not too low. We were able to see so much because she was looking directly at us! Her face looked like a little alien, but she was still adorable :o) She kept sticking her tongue out and putting her fingers in her mouth. The ultrasound tech even said that he could see she's got some hair! (Which makes me feel good because I was bald and looked like a boy when I was born!) :o) She was practicing her breathing which he said was a great sign right now. She was measuring in at 5 lbs. 1 ounce. It makes me feel very anxious/excited because I am so ready to meet my little girl. I want nothing more than to just hold her in my arms and give her the biggest kiss! October couldn't come any faster!

My Baby Shower

Today my sisters in law put together a beautiful baby shower for me. Everything was great! The decorations, the food, the cupcake cake . . . It was beautiful! It's so weird to think that in just two months our little Chloe is going to be here. It's so exciting to think that we're going to be parents in just a short time.

It's official . . . IT'S A GIRL!

Yesterday, Jeremy and I went and had a gender test ultrasound done and found out that we are having a little girl! We couldn't be happier and it just makes it even more real that we're going to be parents soon!

Ready for our newest ultrasound. . .

Last week my mother in law, who is an OB nurse at the hospital, was able to take us up there and give us an ultrasound to see our little one. . .



I'm getting very ansy because next Thursday, the 13th we will be going down to find out what we're having! I'm so anxious to be able to buy something either blue or pink! Jeremy insists that we're having a boy (of course) but we'll see! Considering the fact that I have now had 3 dreams that it was a boy, I'm kind of leading that way too. :)

Baby's first picture!!

Well today we went in for our first ultrasound! Everything is right on track where we thought. . . 9 weeks and 5 days pregnant. The heart was beating at 176 beats per minute. She said that's fast, but perfectly normal for how far along I am. It was amazing seeing the little heart flutter on the screen! It makes it completely official now. Even though I've taken tests...seen the doctor...Just seeing the amazing being on screen right before your eyes is so surreal.

First OB appointment!

Well this afternoon, Jeremy and I went to our first Dr.'s appointment. She did a TON of blood work, asked us a TON of questions and did an internal exam. She said that everything looked great and that I'm right on schedule at almost 10 weeks! (Due October 8th, 2010)
I'm so excited because tomorrow I get to have my first ultrasound!

Valentine's Day

This morning Jeremy decided to get up and make me a wonderful breakfast for Valentine's Day. He made me the only thing that sounded good at the time . . . a waffle with peanut butter and butter (with no syrup!), while he enjoyed some hashbrowns, toast and bacon. (Even though the bacon smell is really starting to get to me right now). hehe
There was a beautiful bouquet of pink roses waiting for me on the table as well. I am so blessed to have such an amazing husband who is going to be an even more amazing daddy.
We didn't do much today as I was up all night last night not feeling well. So we just decided to have a nice quiet day at home watching movies and being with each other! :)
