Our BIG News!

I love my little girl's profile shot--I can tell she'll be a cutie! :)  The bottom left picture is a picture of her little legs and toes!  My ultrasound tech surprised us with some 3-D ultrasound pictures--one of the only ones that actually worked is there at the bottom right.  You can only really see the top of the babies head, but a little further down is the babies nose and lips... Wish both you and I could see it better! :(

So excited for the little girl to come!  Both the kids predicted it would be a girl and I assumed so too since I was nice and sick like I was with Hannah.  I didn't know I was pregnant with Charlie for 2 months!  I knew there was still a chance it could be a boy, and we just never got around to telling many people about the pregnancy, so I figured the gender discovery would be the perfect time. :)

I'm feeling great now!  Once that first trimester was over I started feeling a lot better (as was true with Hannah's pregnancy as well...:)  This pregnancy has definitely been the worst so far, but hardly anything to complain about considering other pregnancies I've heard about...  :(  I'm not sure how some moms make it through!

I did a little of throwing up this pregnancy, always pretty nauseous and picky with foods, alternated between junk food and health food quite regularly, lots of heart palpitations, faintness and my usual # of sinus headaches to go along with it.  Accompanying those I always looked great sporting my comfy sweats, sweaters, no makeup and the no-work buns to keep things simple.  Lots of home-time, movies and daddy's help getting through the days--same story as many moms out there.  No fun, but glad its mostly over.  I still suffer from tiredness, a small bladder and the un-comforts of a growing belly, but thats pretty standard too.  Kids, and what a mom won't do for them...:)

Anyways, none of that is posted to complain--I'm just lazy at journal keeping so I've got to write it down somewhere...:)  Thanks for keeping post on the family and be sure to leave me your blog address and an invite to your personal blogs!

Have a great day!
