26 week update

24 week belly shot

We went for our monthly sonogram at the perinatologist on the 22nd.  The sono shows the baby weighing 1 pound and 14 oz.  Everything continues to look great and he's growing just like he should. 

He's in the 63rd % for weight at this point.  We have a 3D sonogram scheduled for the beginning of May and are excited about that.

 Our family's first NCAA game.  We got tickets to go watch KU play at the Sprint Center!  Looks like I brought my own basketball with me :)  It was fun to cheer the Jayhawks on to a win, in person!

Well, we are coming to the end of our 2nd trimester.  It's so exciting and unbelievable! We are looking foward to our first 2 showers which are next week.  Then, our 6 week childbirth classes will begin next Saturday.  Hoping to post some pictures of the progress we're making in the nursery in next blog update.  The crib is on order and should be here in the next week or two. 

Happy Easter to you!  We hope that you enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend as we celebrate the reason that we have hope, our Risen Saviour!

23 week update

20 week belly shot

We went for another sonogram at the perinatologist at 21 weeks and everything is still looking great.  We sure do love getting to see him!  Here's one of the many pictures we got this time.  What a sweet little face!  Now if we could just decide on a name....

I love getting to feel him move around all of the time now.  Mitch has been getting to feel him move lately and we've been able to watch him from the outside.

I went to see Dr Holly yesterday and we were attempting to record the baby's heartbeat to the recordable frame my cousin Cassie gave us.  The baby was being a stinker and kept running around so that Dr. Holly was having to basically chase him to get a good recording.  It was funny!  We are grateful for another good report.  We'll continue to see the perinatologist every 4 weeks. 

Well, the registering has begun!  Mom, Shannon and I went to check out a consignment sale last Friday then did some registering at Buy Buy Baby.  Yesterday my mother-in-law spent 3 hours with me scanning items at Target and today Mitch and I spent 3 hours at Babies R Us choosing the baby's furniture and getting registered.  There are lots of showers being planned for the next several months so we're getting prepared.
