Thumbs Up!

This past Friday we had our Level II Ultrasound and I feel a huge relief!! The technician and the baby (click on the ultrasound pic) gave us a "thumbs up" that he is on track with his size and all of his organs/arms/legs appear to be developing normally. I have only felt small 'flutters' so far so I just LOVE to watch him move during the ultrasound... I am 19 weeks so I am anticipating that I should be receiving some punches/kicks any day now:)

Em's Graduation!!!

Last weekend we surprised Emily with a college graduation celebration. She didn't get to 'walk' with her class since she graduated early and lives in Phoenix.... she was very surprised and it was a great reason to get a DQ ice cream cake!!!:)

It's a... BOY!!!

We had a 16 week appointment today and our doctor told us we are having a boy! We had wanted our doctor to write the sex of the baby down and Jason and I were going to open the envelope later tonight but our doctor got so excited and caught up in the moment, he typed in "It's a Boy' on the ultrasound picture while we were looking at it... he felt bad when he realized what he had done and we were a bit surprised but never the less, very, VERY excited!!! He said he was 100% sure it was a boy... click on the ultrasound pics to get a close up of Baby Grant. No names picked out yet.... you will all have to wait until his arrival in October to find out!:)

16 Weeks!

Here is me and Baby at 16 weeks!

6 Years!

May 2nd was Jason and my 6 year wedding anniversary!! We got married around Tulip Time so every year I buy tulips because they remind me of Pella, IA, and our wedding weekend:) I also write in a journal every anniversary summarizing the year and hopes for the upcoming year..... and then I don't write in it or read it until our next anniversary. Last year's entry was so fun to read because I had written how I was hoping I would be pregnant... God is soo good!:) This year to celebrate our anniversary, Jason and I went out to eat at Tutti Santi and then went to the Scottsdale drive in movie theatre, which was such a cute nostalgic place.

May 11th is our next ultrasound where we are hoping we can find out the sex of the baby! What a great Mother's Day gift:)
