Doctor Appointment Update

Today I am 18 weeks, 4 days pregnant

We had another great appointment yesterday. The baby's heartbeat was very strong and much louder than a few weeks ago. Such a good feeling! We also scheduled our anatomy ultrasound for October 20. So in 3 weeks we'll know if this little baby is a boy or a girl! I was hoping that we'd have this a little bit sooner, but I guess we'll just have to wait a bit longer to find out.

Hope everyone else is doing well! We're still working on getting a new computer, so I apologize for the lack of pictures. They will be coming soon!

First Daycare visit

Ryan and I visited the Primrose School near our house yesterday and we were actually very pleased with the place. I was worried I might have a breakdown, but I managed to escape tear-free! Whoo hoo! We've got 3 more places that we're looking into, but hope to make a decision soon. Now, we just have to start saving our pennies to pay for it! haha...

Hope everyone is having a great Saturday!

Baby details

The scoop on Baby Debo:

Due Date: 2.26.10
Weeks pregnant: 17
Baby Size: almost 5 inches long
Gender: don't know yet, but we will find out in the next few weeks! (I think it's a girl, Ryan is hoping for a boy)

Changes so far...
- Sold my beloved Infiniti for a Nissan Murano (a little more family/budget-friendly)
- Starting to get a little baby bump (pics coming soon...)
- Morning/all-day sickness was bad at first, but is almost gone (YAY!)
- Still feeling super tired and hungry, very hungry
- Doing tons of reading on pregnancy and starting to research all of the stuff we need to buy for this little one
- Beginning to work on some additional training for Cooper so that he is a bit calmer when baby arrives
- Switching over to maternity clothes soon, pants are getting tight and uncomfortable!
- Relaxing and feeling less nervous with each week that passes

Welcome!

So, first I'll admit that I know nothing about starting a blog. So, forgive me if things are a little wacky at first!

I'll be using the blog to post updates on our doctor's appointments, ultrasound pictures, belly pictures, and other events happening as we get ready for baby. We hope that you'll follow our journey and provide your thoughts and comments along the way. (just make them nice, otherwise this pregnant lady may cry...LOL)
