3D/4D Ultrasound

What a day! Today was our 3D/4D Ultrasound. We got to see everything.. Our baby boy is just the cutest! He has big chubby cheeks, and an adorable chin! Daddy thinks he looks like mommy.. I can't tell.. But I'm going to let the pictures tell the story... Enjoy!

Just another day...

87 DAYS! Wow!! I can't believe how close we are. Henry is really growing. I was getting dressed yesterday morning, and couldn't believe how tight MY CLOTHES are. It's so good to see him gaining weight and getting bigger. I also notice his increasing size when I sleep - or should I say - try to sleep. If I'm too much on one side, he lets me know that he feels crowded. Kick, kick, kick... He's just like his daddy. He definitely knows what he likes.. HAHAHA..

This is such an amazing experience. Everyday something else happens to make it even more "real" than it was before. I was at work, and one of my coworkers actually saw my belly move - kind of like a wave. For me this was a totally normal experience (roll, kick) for them, not so much.. I think they were both grossed out AND horrified. My brother too... He's interested until he actually sees it. Then, its just wrong, and he has to leave to the room - LOL!! My sister on the other hand would have her hands sewn to my stomach if she could.. :) I love watching others react.. hahaha...

Well anyway, back to life... :)

The joys of the registry!

Its really amazing how much we don't know. We've been working to create an "appropriate" baby registry but how are you supposed to know what to include??!! Everyone has opinion of course. Add this, take this off, oh you forgot this. But really, there is no instruction booklet. Babies r us gave us a guide, but is that good enough? How much do you really need to start out? It would seem to me, that a crib, a car seat, some clothes, and diapers would be sufficient. But what do I know?

On a different note.... We went out and picked up some of the cutest clothes ever.. We got him little overalls, some polos, and the sweetest little socks. This is the fun stuff. Shopping, planning and hoping.

Just can't wait!!!! :)

Week 27ish....

Greetings!

Welcome to our Henry Tracker! Baby Henry is due April 10th or so. Both Ray and I are so excited! We have SOOOOO much to do, but it seems like we're in for a fun ride. So far, we've gotten a crib. That's right and that's all. A crib! So maybe this weekend when we're snowed in, we can get the rest squared away. There's also the issue of painting. But we'll get to that soon - I hope. :) Not to leave out the cats.. Not sure how they're going to respond to all the changes, but we'll see soon I guess.

But anyway.... we "should be" updating this site regularly.. On Tuesday the 21st at 11am, we're having our 3D/4D Sonogram, so we should have some great images to post then.

Until then, ciao!
