Button Has a Bed!

The 1st piece of furniture has just been added in the new nursery! We had so much fun putting together Button's new crib this past weekend...It is so exciting and makes her arrival seem so much more real and close! Both Andy and I have found ourselves walking into that room often just to look at the crib and room and imagine all the amazing joys that are to come once our precious new daughter joins the world!

Great Soccer Player on our Hands??

So today I hit 20 weeks, the big halfway mark of pregnancy!! (It sure is amazing how fast time flies!) Button decided she wanted to celebrate being 20 weeks old, and so decided to start performing a taebo session~I felt my first kicks!! Late last night, she started moving a whole bunch and kicking around, where it was my 1st time to get to know that that was indisputably her I was feeling~It was amazing!! Even Andy could put his hand on my stomach and feel the kicks as well! So exciting, what an incredible thing to start feeling our daughter move for the first time!

IT'S A...............

GIRL!!!

We're having a DAUGHTER and are sooo amazingly excited and thrilled!!! We were both so full of excitement walking into the doctor's office today for the appointment to "find out" we could hardly stand it! Here is a picture from today~this is a profile shot of her looking to the right, though i apologize for how fuzzy it turned out when I posted it on here. (We both already agree that she is gorgeous though!!;) ) The ultrasound was absolutely amazing to get to see every little part of our precious little girl's body already formed and in motion; truly incredible to see the miracle God has created and is continuing to form, one that will soon be ours to hold in our arms come November 2!! Thank you so much for all your prayers!!! Just wanted to share the exciting HUGE news of the day with you!!!!!!! I'll throw in a picture, too, of proud Dad showing off his sweet daughter's picture...;)!

Baby's starting to pop out!:)

Ok, so FINALLY here is a belly picture, like nearly almost every one of you has been asking for:)! You can finally start to see BABY!!!! Andy took this yesterday, now at 18 weeks (4 1/2 months)...I feel like my stomach is growing daily, and know it won't be long until everyone at the grocery store is brave enough to finally ask if I'm pregnant without worrying they're just calling a woman fat...!ha:)

I am officially over the 1st trimester sickenss now and have been feeling great the past 2 or so weeks~SUCH a blessing!! That enabled us to have a wonderful vacation back to the East coast (to GA, FL, and NJ) this past week, in which we had such a blast, and it was just so wonderful to feel good and healthy!

We are counting down the days~5 MORE DAYS until we know if "Button" is a boy or girl!!!!!!! We are just bursting with excitement!!

Thank you all so much for all your prayers throughout these 9 months!!
