Almost 13 Weeks!!!!

Yeah!!! Such a good week this week....feeling much better and time is starting to fly by. I can't believe almost 9 weeks ago we found out we were pregnant. I was sick for about 4 weeks....nothing sounded good to eat and if I could have thrown up I would have loved to. No fun. I am back up and eating plenty now and can't wait to see this belly bump start to grow.


This is a picture of Waylen and I at First Friday downtown...it was different to say the least, but we had a good time....As you can see no bump yet, but I figured I might as well document it anyway!





Last friday we had our genetic testing appointment. Basically they test for Down Syndrome...and two chromosonal disorders that tend to be lethal. My first thought was..."That should be a real blah appointment!". But it actually was so much fun. They took tons of pictures of the baby and also did a video for us. It's about 10 minutes long....and he or she is just the most beautiful baby ever! The sonographer had to bounce on my stomach a lot in order to get the baby to start moving ...and it did a complete turn!! Yeah!!! Feet were up in the air with one arm by its side and one up by the head (this is exactly how Waylen sleeps). He was really excited about that and the fact that he swears he saw its "boy parts"!!! He even wrote down on a piece of paper the time on the video where he thinks he sees it...so family can pause it and check it out. So funny! Such an amazing experience. I of course had to go out and get a frame to put the picture in for our house. It will be the first of many!!!


I thank God for this amazing experience everytime I look at "it"........so precious!
