It's a BOY!

Here are some pics from our photo shoot with Messick Photography yesterday! Enjoy!

It's a....

My family came over tonight for Thanksgiving Round 2.  My mom wanted to do the pencil test gender prediction.  We tried it a few times her way....the test predicted that it's a girl.  My brother looked up the specific rules on the internet.  Apparently, there are many websites dedicated to this test.  I tried it on my hand, wrist, belly, and with someone else holding the string.  Every time....girl.  My family has said they think it's a girl from the beginning.  Most of our friends predict it's a boy.  I'm so excited to find out.  We will know for sure next Wednesday.  

Happy Thanksgiving

19 Weeks

We had a wonderful time with our families today.  I have so much to be thankful for!  We had 17 people eat dinner in our tiny home today.  It was absolutely wonderful.  After a huge meal, David and I sang some Christmas songs we've been working on.  Of course Grandma had some song requests, "What a Day That Will Be" and "The Lighthouse."  My grandmother will be 91 next week.  I am thankful to still have her around.  We had as many desserts as side dishes today.  We are so stuffed and ready to relax.  Tomorrow, we will have my family back over for round 2 as we celebrated my Mom's birthday!  I have a feeling that I may see some weight gain when I go to the doctor next week.  :)

18 Weeks

Somehow I have made it to 18 weeks pregnant, and it really feels like the time has flown by.  I think having so much going on at work leaves a lot less to time to just be pregnant.  I feel great!  I've been watching what I eat....this week.  Next week is Thanksgiving and I'm not holding back for that.  My Mother-in-law is bring Peanut Butter Pie and it's the main thing on my mind right now.   Our little butter bean is about the size of a sweet potato now and busy putting on weight as he or she is getting bigger by the day - just like me!  Here is my 18 week bump shot.  2 weeks until our next ultrasound!
