Belly Pics!

 I am now 16 weeks along and this baby is growing and growing. I have began reading some baby and pregnancy books which are so entertaining to me. Nic and I have visited Babies R Us to get an idea of what we might like for this little baby of ours. For first time parents, Babies R Us can be very overwhelming! There are just so many options and so many different things to factor in when looking for strollers, car seats, bottles and more.  We go to the doctor on June 7th just for a check up and then hopefully by the end of June we will be finding out the sex of our baby!! We can't wait to find out what it is. I feel like that appointment is not going to come soon enough.  Since I am 16 weeks, I decided that maybe it was time to start taking some belly pictures and of course Gracie wanted her picture with the baby too!

We are out of the first trimester!

So, this past week we went to the doctor to have the first trimester screening done. During the appointment,  they do is an ultrasound, listen to the heartbeat and then some blood work. The appointment went great and the doctor was pleased with everything that he saw. The heart beat was 152 which was good and strong. The ultrasound tech showed us all angles of the baby which was so cool. She was trying to get certain pictures for the doctor and the baby wasn't quite participating so our ultrasound took a little bit longer. The baby was moving around but not to much....it must have been napping time. haha! Attached are the pictures from the ultrasound. For some of those who can't figure it out, I have labels pointing to where things are.
