3rd trimester!

Yea! I've hit 28 weeks and I couldn't be more excited!! I can't believe I only have 12 weeks left and then my little girl will be here! I can't wait to meet her and I'm getting very anxious! Some days I just cry (mostly because my hormones are all out of sorts) but also because I just want her here! I love feeling her little feet kick me, and her arms, and her hiccups, and when she does full flips in me and all the other little movements she makes! I think it's the greatest feeling in the whole world and I'm already so attached to her! People probably think I'm crazy because I am always touching my belly and rubbing it thinking that she can feel me! I can't wait to be a mom and I hope I can fill the role as good as my mom always has! I hope that my little girl with have the same trust and love and friendship that I have with my mom. I have been so blessed with such a great mom and I just hope I can do as good of a job raising my little EmmaLyn! We had another ultrasound at 26 weeks so here are a few pictures from that! In the video on the bottom you can see Emma's tongue moving all over the place.

San Diego Vacation

Here are a few pictures from the vacation the family took to San Diego! It was so much fun! We went to Sea World, San Diego Wild Animal Park, San Diego zoo and the Beach!

EmmaLyn

This was EmmaLyn at 22 weeks. We are now 25 weeks along so I'm a little behind on the blog but here she is! I just love this little girl so much and she kicks all day long! I'm so glad I can feel her so good now I love it! She has just started to get the hiccups and it's a fun feeling! I'm still sick but it's so worth it! We are so excited for her to come and I only have about 15 weeks left!!!

In her video you can see her mouth opening and closing! I just thought it was the cutest thing ever!

EmmaLyn's Little Foot

It's a Girl!

We went to the ultra sound on Friday and the baby was NOT cooperating! She was totally asleep and laying on her stomach with her hands tucked underneath her. We were there for about half an hour with no gender and finally Michelle (the ultra sound tech) said that we would have to come back because she was not cooperating. She said she would try one more time for the gender and we barely got to see that it was a GIRL! We didn't get any good pictures so she said I would get some when we go back in 2 weeks and then I will post them on here!

18 weeks

I am now 18 weeks! I will found out if it is a boy or a girl on March 12th and I can't wait! I am still pretty sick in the morning but so grateful I can actually keep food down and enjoy life a little again! I am starting to get a belly and I feel big but my husband is so nice and just says its not big its our baby, Its supposed to be there! He has been so good and supportive through this whole thing! I keep having really weird dreams but I suppose that is normal and as long as they are just dreams I can handle it! But the day they start taking your baby out to let you see it at 18 weeks and then putting it back in you I'm done having kids! As far as me thinking whether its a boy or a girl I'm unsure. I have dreams of both all the time but I am starting to be convinced its a boy even though my mom and I have both already bought a few girl outfits. Everyone at work and our friends all think its a girl so we'll see! I just want to find out so I can start decorating! I have everything picked out I just need to get it all ordered and get to work painting and getting the room together! Anyways here is a picture and I will update in 2 weeks as soon as we find out!!

8 weeks and counting

I'm PREGNANT! We found out we are going to have a baby the week before thanksgiving and we decided we weren't going to tell our families until Thanksgiving! It was so hard to not tell my mom, and everytime I talked to her on the phone I had to quickly hang up so I wouldn't let the secret out. My mom, dad and Lacie came down to mesa for thanksgiving so we decided to tell them when they got here the night before. I made a big dinner for them and invited my siblings over for dessert to tell them too. We made shirts that had both our baby pictures on them with the words "is it a boy?" on Scotts and "is it a girl?" on mine. The anticipation was killing me and I couldn't wait until they arrived. Lacie walked in first and just kind of looked at me like why are you wearing that, but when my mom saw it she got it right away and couldn't believe it! We weren't planning on having a little one for about 2 years but SUPRISE! I have been extremely sick and whoever called it morning sickness was lucky thats all they had. I haven't been able to keep anything down for about 3 weeks now and Scott has been so good and supportive when I just cry because thats all I can do! I am now 8 1/2 weeks and I am hoping that by week 12 or 14 I will begin to feel better. I have had a few scares with bleeding but luckily the little baby is still there and it has a healthy heart beat! I have had 3 ultrasounds already just to make sure everything is okay and my doctor has been so awesome! At my last appointment which was last Friday I was so nervous as she got ready to do the ultra sound because I just knew that I no longer had a baby because of all my bleeding. I had cried and cried the whole night before and I didn't know what I would do if my baby was gone. When she found the baby and the heart beat I was so excited and felt so blessed! I gave the ultra sound lady a huge hug just from reaction and she was so nice and hugged me back instead of calling me crazy or weird or something! I was just so happy to see the little gummy bear and its heart beat! Anyways, Scott and I are both so excited to be parents and start our family together! Here is a picture of our gummy bear, me at 8 weeks and the shirts we made! Enjoy!!

Halloween

We had a little Halloween party at our house. Scott dressed up as Billy Mayes and I made a tutu and called myself a witch! It was a lot of fun and now we are ready for the Holidays to come!
