Belly & Baby

So my dear friend Christina has helped me capture the only 2 pictures of my belly so far. Now that the growing process has begun, I should probably take them more consistently to see all the changes on a weekly basis. I am still in that awkward is it a bigger gut or is it a baby bump look but I am loving every minute of it!

We also went in for an ultrasound last Friday and it was so amazing to see how much the baby's shape has changed since our 1st pictures. You can actually see the baby's profile which we loved and we also got an early guess out of the nurse as to the sex of the baby. Will it be a boy or a girl... polls are now open. :) Enjoy the pictures of our little peanut both on the inside and out.

I love how peaceful baby looks in this picture, sleeping on it's side!

The Baby's Room

So the transformation process has begun!! Nate and I started making room for baby. It was amazing to see how much stuff you can accumulate and stuff into rooms in just a few short years. It was a weekend full of organizing, rearranging and tossing. It felt so good to get that project started. I was moved to tears many times this weekend as the thought hit that we are actually working on getting our baby's room ready. What a joy it is. I can't wait to fill the baby's room with all the fun and cute little items that baby's need. Below is the 1st look at the room cleared out and ready for when we find out the sex to get going with all the fun colors and other details. More to come!!

Our Little Blessing

It has been quite some time since I have posted anything on my blog but I believe the time has come for an update! The last 3 months have been a whirlwind of emotion. The best emotion of all being told one of the best things I have ever heard.... "Your Pregnant"!!! Nate and I are overjoyed to be expecting our 1st little blessing in May 2010! Below are some of the 1st debut pics of our little one. I am 1 week away from being out of my 1st trimester and have been feeling great. No true morning sickness ever hit me (thank you Lord!) and I am starting to get some more energy back. I felt like a sloth for the last 6 weeks but am excited that I have been able to stay up past 9 p.m. the this last week. So far pregnancy has been amazing and yet surreal at many times. Nate and I dream about what our baby will look like, smell like, feel like and are in just plain awe that our time has come. We are in constant thanks to God for our blessing and continue to learn how to trust him with our pregnancy as he is the giver of this blessing. We look forward to May 27th with great anticipation but for now I am trying to savor every moment of pregnancy. Thanks to all who have prayed for us thru this time of waiting and we covet your continued prayers for a safe and healthy pregnancy and delivery.
