I went with 2 friends to OWG to take pictures. We took pictures of the gardens, mansions, and each other haha

Here are some pictures! (the first one is mine, the others are my friends Christine's)

Kicks galore!

I've been feeling little kicks for the last 2 or 3 weeks but they haven't been very strong so Brian hasn't been able to feel them. Well last night my little boy was kicking away and Brian finally felt it! It was so exciting!!!!

This last week Ive also felt my first pregnancy pains..stretching pains along with a UTI = awesome haha its been very painful but its all worth it :-)

Here is a  recent belly pic at 20 weeks

Little Kicks!

This past week I have felt my little boy moving around and kicking in there a little bit. It feels really weird, like someone is softly tapping inside my stomach, but I love it each and every time I feel it. 

And here is my 17 week belly. This is the first week that I really think people are able to tell that I am pregnant. 

cribs, bedding, and clothes OH MY!

Of course I have been researching everything that I want to get for my little man. Here are some ideas I have for the nursery and clothes:

How cute is this???

Now for the crib set in the nursery

I like this set:

and here are some bedding options that I like!

It's a boy!!!!!!

I've been so busy that I haven't updated in awhile! As of tomorrow I will be 16 weeks and after my 16 week appointment on Monday, I will update with new pictures. But for now, I am going to rewind to my 12 week ultrascreen. It went really well and I got a TON of nice pictures where my little peanut looked like a real baby. I loved every minute of it. However, a few days later I got a phone call from my OBGYN's office, telling me that according to some of my measurements it seems that my cervix might be shortening so they want me to go for a test at LIJ. So a week later I had my appointment, the doctor said that my cervix looked fine! (whew, i was nervous!) and right before the doctor was done, I said "WAIT!! Can you tell if it's a boy or girl??" and he looks and says "Yup, I'm 99% sure that you will be having a boy!" We were beyond excited to find out. Now its time to figure out how we want to decorate the babies room, and figure out a name. :-)

Here are 12 week sonogram pictures, and my belly in between 13-14 weeks
