Keeping track of my due date(Novemeber 13th)!

Greetings from Ohio

Hope everyone is doing well. We are doing fine, quite eager to find out the sex of the baby- we are scheduled to have an ultrasound, done by our good friend Kim who is in medschool, June 28th(I'll be 20 weeks)- if we can't tell by then we also have an appointment for an echo/ultrasound on July 13th so we should know the sex for sure by then!! I've been feeling pretty good, still in my 'constantly exhausted stage' but they say that goes away now that I'm in my second trimester so I'm looking forward to gaining my energy back soon:) My hormones also have me on an emotional rollercoaster on some days, but other than that- we are feeling great! Andy has had two teaching position interviews and some more prospects on the way- let's keep our fingers crossed! Next week is Andy's cousin Paul and Laura's wedding and then the following week Aunt Tracy's Big Day- can't wait! In the process of finding a dress...no fun to shop when you don't fit into many regular clothes anymore :( still loving the comfy maternity clothes I may never turn back! We'll keep you all updated.

"Tummy Tracking!" (14 weeks)

I am not completely computer literate so you have to turn your head to view the picture but here is the beginning of our "Tummy Tracking", I will be posting pictures each month as we begin to grow! This is at 14 weeks. Clothes are unfortunately becoming tighter and who knew how comfortable maternity clothes are- thanks Carrie!

Parents To Be- May 2006

Here is a more updated picture of the proud parents to be. Who can see the hidden message in this picture? Maybe they will be the baby's first words? Although since Andy is a "Nittany Lion" he may not be so happy about that!

Listen to the baby's heartbeat :)

We have a heartbeat!

Last Thursday Andy and I were blessed enough to hear our baby's heartbeat- it was absolutley incredible to hear his or her little heart beating :) We have recorded it and are in the process of finding out a way to download it onto the blog for all to hear! We also had a fabulous weekend with my mom who flew in to visit her two ohio daughters for the weekend- we had a great time spending time together, showing her around Grandview and doing some maternity clothes shopping - she stayed in a beautiful suite at Ali's apartment complex which thanks to Ali may also be open to those who wish to come visit! Wish we could have her here all the time-anyone feel like moving to o-h-i-o? Just kidding, we'll keep you updated on the heartbeat! We love you all.
