Knock, Knock. Who's there??

Friday night I got home from work at 1:30 in the morning. I was so wide awake I puttered around the house for a bit before I went to bed. Lying in bed mainly on my tummy I felt a weird sensation in my belly and wondered...could it have been?I havent felt the baby at all so I turned over to my back and put my hands on the lower part of my belly. Then it happened again! With a smerk on my face I was telling myself not to get to excited and that it probably wasnt the baby. It happened for the 3rd time and then I started to question myself again. Am I sure? Was it the baby or just me??All of a sudden..BOOM, BOOM!!! Its was so hard and I felt it inside and outside. I started crying and laughing all at the same time.
I hopped out of bed to grab the phone. Here I was phoning Andrew at 2:30 in the morning(3:30 his time) to tell him that the baby was kicking. After the phone call I lied there again and for 2 hours the baby was using me as a punching bag!! I didnt get to sleep until 4:00am!!!I guess my baby felt the need to miss the whole "flutter" stage and go straight to the kicking and pounding. Andrew comes home Monday night, I cant wait for him to feel this!What an amzing feeling! It feels like a lava lamp in your belly. Even last night I was so excited to lie in bed and feel him kick away at me.

Baby Bedding

Now that we know that we are having a BOY!!! here is the bedding that we would like to get. I gave Andrew a few choices and this is the one that he picked.

22 Weeks

Thought that I would take a picture today of the belly.

Ultrasound pictures!!

We finally had our ultrasound and what a wonderful experience it was. The baby weighs 14oz and measures 25cm from head to toe with a heart beat of 141. The technician had a hard time getting pictures because the baby wouldnt stop moving around and she also asked us if we wanted to know the gender. She managed to get a shot of "between the legs" and...

WARNING!!! If you dont want to know the answer, close your eyes and turn your head away but you know that someone will let it slip to you so you either find out here or from someone else. Your choice!

Well only a fool wouldnt be able to tell, there it was in plain view for all the world to see. Its a BOY!!!

We are thrilled to announce that there will be a little boy joining us around Feb 11th.
