We're having a baby!

I got this cute idea from a friend to track my pregnancy every week so I can watch my stomach get bigger. I want to compare my pictures and blogs to my next pregnancy. As of right now I am 11 weeks and 4 days. I have only gained 2 pounds and it is all going to my stomach. Some of you might not notice a difference but I do. I thought 15 sounded like a good number, so I will start posting pictures around then and really start tracking my pregnancy. Andrew and I first found out we were pregnant just a couple days after my birthday (April 30). We were both a little worried because I was taking birth control the first month. When I found out I could not wait to tell my mom. She ordered my dress for my sister's wedding just a week before I found out, so I thought it would be a good idea to tell her to cancel the order while she could because there was no way I would be able to fit in a size 4 dress, 5 months pregnant. I have been really sick these last few weeks but I only have to endure a couple more weeks of morning sickness. :) I did not expect to be sick this much but it is all worth it. I have really good sense of smell so doing dishes and cooking have been out of the question. Andrew has been really helpful doing the dishes and cooking. I don't have any weird cravings yet, but I do crave cheesy potatoes and cookies n creme ice cream. We do have our names picked out already. I have an idea in my head on what I want to do for both genders. I am really excited. If its a girl it will be Avery Rae and Trevin for a boy. I'm not sure on the middle name for Trevin yet. It will either be J or Jeff because I want to name him after my dad, so we will wait until we find out the gender until we make the decision. They are both different names but I don't want names you hear everyday. I like unique and different. We find out the sex right before we come home so I am really excited to give my family the news in person. We have been so blessed and we are really excited to be parents. :)

Rumors...

It has been so long since I've blogged. So many things have happened since the last time I have been on. Andrew and I decided it was time to move into a house so we found a really cute house with a huge backyard. We were in need of a yard for our dogs, so it has been really nice being able to let them out and not have to worry. We love our new home and we do not plan on moving until we pcs out of Florida. Hopefully that is a while out because I HATE moving. Today was a very special day for me and Andrew. We went to the hospital and had our first ultrasound. To put an end to the rumors, yes we are having a baby! :) My baby is due Janruary 6. We might have a new years baby..... We are all really excited and I cannot wait to meet my little one. Hearing the heart beat for the first time was the greatest thing in the world. There are no words to explain it. I only wanted family to know until we knew the baby was healthy and developing right. We got an A+ from my doctor today. We have been so blessed and I can't wait for what is to come.
