It has been 7 weeks already since I last posted and you can definitely see it on my belly!  I am 39 weeks and 2 days today! Hopefully this means our little guys will be here any day now.  I have been having contractions, but that has been going on for like 2 weeks so who knows if they actually mean anything or not.  Because it has been so lon since I posted I never got a chance to thank everyone for the wonderful babyshowers and the gifts! We really appreciate it all so much.  Well, we are definitely getting anxious and excited and we can't wait to meet our baby boy.  We already love him so much and we just know he will be the perfect addition to our family.

So I am 32 1/2 weeks pregnant and I feel huge (my belly anyway)! We had a doctors appointment last week and the doctor said that our little guy is smaller than average, but he is still in the healthy range.  We are very glad that he is healthy, but we had to laugh at this because I feel soooo big, so when the doctor said that he is smaller than average all I could think is "how the heck can that be?".  Anyway, the doctor said that everything seems to be going well and that if I carry him to full term he will probably be about 7lbs.  This is news I was very glad to hear because I keep imagining this 10lb baby and how there is just no way I could deliver him.  7lbs however, seems much more reasonable!
I can't believe how fast the time has gone by with this pregnancy.  This morning Kal asked me if I had realized that since today was March 1st we could now say we are having a baby next month.  I hadn't realized that! It is getting so close and we are getting very excited for the arrival of our baby boy!

26 Weeks

I decided that I should be doing a better job documenting this pregnancy since it is a first for me and I want to be able to show our little boy someday.  The last picture I posted was at about 20 weeks and I wasn't really that big.  Now six weeks later my belly is about three times that size! It felt like I just woke up one day and had tripled in size.  The baby is moving all of the time now and if you watch you can even see the kicks and punches! It is so fun that Kal can not only feel him now, but can see him.  He has already got his daddy wrapped around his little finger!  We love him so much!

It's a Boy!


20 weeks
We were going to find out whether we were having a girl or a boy in Utah on November 11th, but we ended up not being able to go so we had to wait (very impatiently I might add) until December 13th.  Well even though it felt like the day would never come it finally did and we are having a boy!!!! We already love the little guy so much and can't wait to meet him!  It is weird how finding out the sex has made this whole thing seem so much more real.  It was so amazing to be able to see him and such a blessing to know that he is healthy and everything is going well. We are so grateful to be starting our family and so happy that this little boy is going to be the first addition.
