17 weeks

I thought I would post a belly shot since I am starting to feel like my belly is getting bigger!

I had a dream a few nights ago that the baby was a girl but I still don't have a strong feeling one was or the other. Two and a half more weeks until the ultrasound!!!!!!

Finally finished!

I started a latch hook back in High School and I finally finished it tonight! It only took me like 6 or so years to do it. It is going to be for the baby's room. I haven't decided whether it should be a small rug or whether it should hang on the wall, but I still have some time to figure it out. Abby really liked it! She even posed for a picture with it.

Doctor's Appt.

This morning I went to the doctor's and got to hear the heartbeat again : ) The baby's heart rate was 149. The old wives tale is that anything over 140 is a girl but as the doctor said that is only right about 50% of the time! So we are going to have to wait to find out. I don't even really have a feeling of what it might be. It's a mystery! I have gained about 4 pounds so far which I think isn't too bad!

I scheduled the ultrasound which is my next appointment for April 16th! In like 5 weeks, which seems so far away. I am 15 weeks now so I will be 20 weeks by the ultrasound. Rick starts working 6am to 2:30 soon so I made the appointment in the afternoon so he can come. He hasn't gotten to hear the heartbeat yet so he is excited he will get to hear it and see the baby on the 16th (hopefully find out the sex too!). We can also bring a recordable DVD and get the ultrasound on DVD which I think is awesome. So of course we will have to show everyone!
