Catching Up...

Wow I didn't think I would ever get back to blogging, but I forced myself to sit down and post the pictures I had from the end of last year.
So if anyone wants to see I have back posts from Halloween thru Christmas now. :)

Now onto 2011!

It's 100% Official...

We finally have a definate-

We are having a GIRL

I had my big ultrasound yesterday and they said it is 100% Girl! But more important the baby seems healthy and normal! YAY!

It's a good thing it's a girl because I would hate to put on all those cute pink outfits I've collected on a boy!

Here are a few of the ultrasound photos:

This one was a little hard to tell (so I made it obvious) but it's pretty clear that there is nothing in between those legs!

And here is her little profile...so cute!

So there you have it...now I just need the perfect name. Aaron and I have a million boy names (as we were hoping for 4 boys and than 1 girl). So if there are any suggestions I'd love to hear them. The only one I seem to like is McKenzee Marie. Her middle name will definitely be Marie (since it is my middle name).

For the rest of the info is more for journaling purposes:

At the ultrasound her heartbeat rate was 125 (which surprised me because I was always told girls had faster heartbeats than boys and I remember Austin's being 147). Her measurements from butt to head were 6 in. and approximate weight was 15 oz. They said she was measuring a little smaller than what my due date says (her measurements put the due date as Oct. 2nd - which I would love an October baby) but he said the measurements from the first ultrasound are more accurate which is Sept. 21st.

As for momma-

I am now 23 1/2 weeks. I feel bad because I haven't documented my belly growth like I did when I was pregnant with Austin. So I guess it's better late than never. So I will try and get some bump pics on here. I already look like I am at 30 weeks, but I haven't gained any weight...ok I should knock on wood because my next appointment I'll probably gain 10 lbs. But I did start out 10 lbs. heavier with this baby than I did with Austin (I was in much better shape than too, I was jogging 2 miles everyday for the first 2 months of my first pregnancy (than the wonderful morning sickness hit)...and with this one I'd probably die if I tried to walk a mile! And I still have problems with morning sickness - (but it has gotten better). And my headaches happen a lot less (and haven't had a migraine in 2 weeks) so that's really good news.

And I had to throw in these pictures of Austin; he is my little future photographer:


Austin loves to turn on the studio lights while I am working on the computer (it's the only way to keep him happy while I work) - but once I get my new lights this won't be happening, as for my photographer friends - I know my lights are crap :)

I can't wait to get him his first camera...ok I admit it I already bought him one but he is still to little for it!
