4-D Ultrasound

We had out 4-d u/s done today. It is amazing what technology can do. It was so neat to get to see his face. We also wanted a shot of his privates but he would not cooperate with that. He had his knees tucked up to his chest and his feet crossed. the tech said she thought he weighed about 3 pounds. Here is a link to the pics we got of him...

7 months

Whats been going on.....

On April 7th we went for our 7 month check up. Everything is going wonderful. I have gained about 10 lbs total, Jackson's heartbeat was good, my glucose test was negative for diabetes and blood pressure was fine. I got a lot of 3rd trimester information. We are also scheduled for Baby Bootcamp (prenatal class at the hospital) for May 16th. I am also now pre-registered at the hospital.

Beginning at 32 weeks, I will have to get weekly NST's (non-stress tests) at the hospital. He is wanting to monitor me very close at the end to make sure Jackson stays healthy and if there are any issues that they get caught early.

We go for our 4-D u/s on April 22nd. I can't wait to see him again and be able to see what he looks like. My next appointment with Dr. Daniel is on April 28th. I can't believe how far we have made it.

I have my first baby shower on May 2nd. I can't wait! The crib will hopefully come in by the first of May. His nursery looks really good so far but will look much more complete when the crib comes in.

Other than that, things seem to be moving along both a rocket speed and slow. We only have 2 and 1/2 months to go but it seems like forever away. at the same time looking back it does not seem like it has been over 7 months. I love being pregnant and being able to feel him move around inside me but at the same time I can't wait to meet him and see who he looks like and what his personality will be.

25 weeks

We finally got in the glider for the nursery. I love it! It looks great in the nursery and is super comfortable. I hope the rest of the furniture comes in soon. We took a 25 week belly shot in the nursery so you can see the chair also.

Nursery Update

We got the nursery painted this past weekend thanks to mom and dad! It looks great! The color is a little lighter than I had thought it would be but I think it will look really good with the dark furniture. All we really have to show at this point is the window so here it is....

23 Weeks

I had Jason take a 23 weeks belly picture tonight. I am slightly burned after spending the weekend out in the sun. I am sure I will be in trouble when I go to the dr tomorrow.



Here is another on with my clothes on. (that sounds bad!)

We're Moving....

Well, Jason and I aren't moving but Jackson is! He is moving all over the place. His kicks are getting stronger everyday. Jason got to feel him kick for the first time on Sunday. It is so neat to be able to feel all his little movements. I am sure the knees, elbows, fingers and toes are not to far off.

The nursery is really beginning to come together as well. I bought the new ceiling fan today and we are in the process of picking out paint. We finally have all the junk out of there and we hung the curtains just to get a feel for how it will look.

I'm planning on taking another belly picture this weekend. I will post it as well as some of the update to the nursery. I am so ready to have it painted and get the furniture in there.

Thank you all for the continued prayers for a healthy pregnancy and baby. Please continue to pray as we still have 4 months to go!
