ITS A GIRL!!

So we went on Wednesday to have our big ultrasound and she had her legs open the whole time and it's a girl! :D

The whole thing took about an hour bc she wouldn't cooperate and let the tech get her measurements but she finally did. And she's measuring right about on sched just a few days early so it's great! We couldn't get great pics bc she had her hands in front of her face the whole time lol. But we are so excited :D


The movers came yesterday so we have no furniture and we have tons of cleaning to do but we leave on Tuesday for VA. It's nuts and i'm nervous to not know anyone but I think it'll be great!

Feeling HUGE

ugh so I used to complain that I wasn't showing and now I can't stop stressing about how much I have gained. Its not that I am even showing that much but I feel like I have gained too much. I have gained 9-10 lbs and Im only 18 weeks. Some say that's average which I think it is for a normal weight range person but I was already considered overweight pre pregnancy so I am on a stricker gaining schedule and I am over what i need to be. BLAH! I am trying to motivate myself to workout everyday doing my lil dvd I got and I did it 3 times this week but yesterday I didn't and today I am being way lazy. I at least have gone walking everyday this week so at least I am doing something. I wish I would just stop freaking out and gain whatever I gain but I don't wanna be huge. oh well i guess its part of being pregnant.

We have our big ultrasound in 5 days and I am getting super excited and also paranoid that our little peanut won't show his or her stuff lol. I really am dying to know what we are having!

We are getting really close to moving and it's getting stressful and exciting too! Only about a week and a half left. It's nuts! I've got a lot done besides organizing this house but it'll come together, i know it will!

well all for now :D

Blessed

So we went to the dr on Monday and it took them forever to find the heartbeat on the doppler lol. The lil peanut wanted to move around too much but we finally got it strong and it was 155. I still check it everyday but it's just nice when the doctor confirms it :D I also got my anatomy scan ultrasound scheduled for March 25th. I pray the baby shows us his or her stuff so we can know. Only 19 days and im so flipping excited! I'm gonna drink a big glass of orange juice so the baby will be active lol. I cannot wait to start buying stuff. only 4 more weeks until i am halfway done, that's just crazy to me. Matt says my stomach is huge but I just feel rather fat lol. It's not a good feeling but it'll be well worth it :D

I only have one week left of work, thank goodness. Then it's organizing/packing time and time to move! I am so excited to move but sad to leave my good neighbors! I am going home the 17th and it'll be good to see my family since they won't be around my entire pregnancy.

But anyway just a quick update bc I have to get ready for work. But life is truely amazing and I thank God for everything we are blessed with. Things could always be better or worse but just be okay with what life deals you! Faith doesn't make things easy but it makes things possible!
