Christmas

We had a really good Christmas this year! I was able to get a four day weekend so i got to spend alot of time with sean and our families. We were with Sean's family this year for christmas and had fun opening presents and watching everyone open theirs. I got a new camera for the baby and am in LOVE with it! Its the new Cannon SLR camera. I knew i would love it but i never imagined how much this camera can do! it can do everything! So yeah i am amazed and i love taking pictures with it!

Kelton was my first project, He was really close and i was trying alot of different settings so thats why it's blurry. I think he was having as much fun as i was! Sean's family taking pictures by the Christmas tree.

Sean's focused in on the new Wii that we got for Christmas!This year has been so much fun!

Updates on the baby... Well just over the last week i have realized none of my pants fit. It is such an awesome feeling knowing you actually have nothing to wear! The baby has been moving alot and seems to be having a blast in there! Im starting to notice subtle changes in my stomach and really am growing! I'm at this stage where even my scrubs fit me weird. They fit fine when i'm standing, but i have to loosen them when i sit down, then when i stand back up my pants are falling off! So all day i focus on untying and tying my pants, pulling and tugging on them oh and how can i forget the 20 bathroom breaks! But it is all worth it and i'm just excited to be half way through! I have my 20 wk appt tomarrow and am so excited! then we will know for positive if its a girl! i sure hope so because i really don't want to have to take back all my cute girls stuff!

Projects

So a little while ago some of the nurses taught me how to crochet and knit. So this is one of my first projects crocheting. It took me a good 4 tries to get them to look like this but i thought they turned out so cute! Ive also been knitting a blanket FOREVER and hopefully i'll be done with it soon so i can crochet a pink one! Ive always wanted to learn how so i'm excited that i finally know how to! anyways i was pretty proud or my booties so i decided to post them.

My Sweet Little....GIRL?

So i went to my 16 weeks appointment today and after 4 hours, yes 4 hours at the doctors office we got an ultrasound of the baby. I wanted to make sure everything was ok. Well the lady asked if we wanted to know the gender and of course we did so she told us its a little early but that she's pretty sure its a girl!! We're so excited, the baby was in a perfect position and the pictures came out really good. She did a 4D ultrasound and gave us some pretty cool pictures! It was so much fun and we can't wait for the 20 week checkup! These 4D ultrasounds are AMAZING! you can see everything. That first picture gets a real good look at the whole baby and the umbilical cord. The second one was a cute side view!

We had a really good thanksgiving this year and spent it with my family. most everyone was up and while we were there we all got a few surprises! I found out my sister Christy is about 8 wks pregnant, due in July and Then come to find out my other sister Cherie is 19wks pregnant and is due the end of April! so we're going to have lots of babies within 2months or eachother! It's exciting and will be so much fun to have cousins all within the same age!

13 1/2 Weeks

So This is how much your body can change in just one short week. I started noticing this within the last few days. The picture on the left was taken when i was 12.5 wks pregnant. The picture on the right is 13.5 weeks pregnant, exactly one week apart. It could also have to do with the fact that the white shirt is really tight. Anyways I know when i eat too much that it feels good to stick my stomach out like that pic, well the last few days i realized that it hasn't gone back in and has been quite noticable with tighter shirts. Good thing i don't wear shirts like that alone cuz i'm in the stage where you can't really notice, it just looks like you've gained a little weight! anyways i'm just a few short days away from the start of my second trimester and am anxiously waiting. Only a month or so left till we find out what we're having! i can't wait!

Happy Halloween

So my postings are so late, but since our camera was stolen we have had to use a nice disposable one so i finally got them developed. Anyways, So last year we had to work Halloween and we didn't do anything, so this year we decided to dress up. So all the Nurses and some of the other staff dressed up and we had a big potluck. We had so much fun! Can you imagine the look on our patients faces when we told them we were going to be their nurses for the day! I was a flapper if you can't tell for lack of any other costume left two days before halloween! I also was one of the winners of the coloring contest and i am so proud so i took a pic of it. That stupid picture took me almost a whole shift alone with flat crayons! Anyways it was worth it!

9 Weeks

So Pretty much everyone that looks at this blog already knows the exciting news but i thought I better post since i haven't in a long time! So I am now 9 weeks pregnant and anxious to be done with the First Trimester and morning sickness! The last couple of weeks were kind of miserable but i think the worst is over and now feel pretty good. Anyways that is not the best picture since we were trying to finish up our roll from a digital we used in Europe. Anyways that's probably around 6 weeks and really nothing to show yet. Just thought i'd post a beginning picture!

Camping Trip

We went camping a couple of weekends ago up by the Rim and we had so much fun! All of Sean's family was there and we had so much fun, playing horseshoes, games, and relaxing by the fire. The kids are so fun to watch and we had such good food everywhere! Sadly this is the only camping trip we did this year! Usually we have more time to go camping, but this summer just went by to fast! oh well at least we got to go once! Anyways the views were so beautiful, and it was so nice to get away for a few days!
