the little guy

Right before we left for Thanksgiving in Mississippi (pictures still to come), Ryan and I went to the doctor's for the ultrasound! It was so much fun, and our little baby was so incredibly active! The doctor had to keep moving the wand just to keep up with him! He kept rolling and changing directions - it was so funny to watch! We loved hearing how strong he was, and how he was growing just as he should be. And just so there are no doubts, he was sure to give us a clear view of his identity! We are so excited to meet him!! It is amazing to think that an entire little body could be inside of me!

The doctor snapped a picture right when he put his two hands together - cute huh?

Because he was so dang hyperactive (makes me pretty nervous for years to come!!), we couldn't get the traditional profile picture. Instead, here is one with him looking straight at the camera ... His face looks a little alien-like, but we're sure he'll be as handsome as ever when he's born! :)


And if in case you needed any more proof that yes I am pregnant - here's a picture of me. When I asked Ryan to take a simple picture of me, he was making me laugh so hard that this was the only semi-normal looking one. Hope you don't mind the mis-matching clothes, or the Christmas decorations in the back. And I'm not sure if it was all the food I ate this past weekend during Thanksgiving, or if this baby finally decided to start growing. But either way, I'm getting bigger and it is so much fun! (ps***this is me at 21 weeks)

Congratulations!!! Now the pressure is on to decide names?!? Have you felt him move much? Our girl is super active, which I don't mind, because it just means that I don't have to worry as much, right?

I can see the nose!! That is so cool. Count your blessings that your tummy is tight enough to hide it for this long. You'll appreciate it eventually, trust me...

Have you felt him move yet??

you look great and happy!! we tried to find out around thanksgiving what we were having, and unless "parts" can be as long as 1/2 the leg, we could only see the umbilical cord. our little one kept moving and shaking so we could not tell, we will find out in january though. but, we are excited for your little boy to come into the world! have a great Christmas!
