22 Weeks




Here is Steph at 22 weeks along, the baby is really active now and she can feel him move all the time. I am able to feel him as well when he is moving I will put my head on Stephs stomach and listen to him move then he will kick me in the head, so he is already in alot of trouble when he comes out.



Now I think steph is finally passing me up in the belly department you be the judge. I may be pushing out a little but not much.

So we have continued out journey of gathering all the necessary baby gear for when the little tike comes out so here are our recent purchases and purchases from grandparents in the little boys behalf.

This will be his car seat and stroller we just ordered it yesterday so it is on its way.
Also my mom bought us some sweet crib bedding with a mobile.
I also bought him these pimp trains. Sorry Vicki they are not thomas the trains.

My wonderful mother inlaw also is hooking us up with this, pack and play so when we come to visit our child has a place to rest his head that is not in a shower filled with pillows. (kevin and lena know what I am talking about)

So this is what we have gatherd thus far with still lots more to go. The next big thing on our list is of course the crib. We are trying to accumulate stuff slowly so the dollar figure is spread over the months we also have time to wait for coupons and good deals. These are some of the places we look for coupons and stuff, good ol Ty Robbins told me about these two. www.dealcatcher.com and www.stealdeals.net these two have been very good to us, you just have to be patient and the good deals will come.

We will keep you all updated on the progress of the little one and us aswell.

It's a Boy!

So we had our appointment today well actually it was supposed to be yesterday but the receptionist told us the wrong day and wrote the wrong day on the appointment card but shceduled it for yesterday. So we got there and they did not know why we were there so they got us in anyway and then we waited and waited and watched numerous people that came in after us go by, so luckily one of the nurses recognized us and brought us back the wonderful receptionist did not put in the computer that we were there so they did not know to get us. But luckily as soon as we got back there things went alot quicker and we were in the ultra sound room within no time and hooked up and ready to go. So everything is perfect on the baby Steph is 20 weeks and 4 days today and according to the ultra sound she should be 20 weeks and 4 days. So we have a healthy perfect baby on our hands. I could clearly see it was a boy and promptly spurted it out before the doctor did.
We were able to experience all this on our three year aniversary so it was a cool present from our son to know what he is. Steph and I were so excited last night that we were hardly able to sleep, it was like trying to sleep the night before Christmas when you were a kid. So after the doctors appointment we went to dinner at Wingers and then celebrated by buying a boy baby outfit. So it was an excellent anniversary and baby appointment.
I tried to put up the vedio of the ultrasound but I have no idea how so if I figure it out later I will put it up.
