It's a Girl! The reveal


We could not be more thrilled about having a daughter!!! Tyler is definitely out numbered now haha Me, two female doodles and now a daughter on the way! :) He is going to be such a great daddy. <3 The way he interacts with the girls I nanny for has always brought a smile to my face because of how natural he is at it. I can't wait to see him be a father to our very own baby girl! And what a lucky baby girl she already is!

The ultra sound was wonderful and it was so cool being able to feel her move and being able to see her move at the same time. Once we got to her face, though, she would not cooperate enough for the technician to get the images she needed. This means that we are going to have to go again in two weeks for a follow up. I'm OK with this, though, because we get to see her again!

I was so back and forth on whether or not I wanted to throw a little gender reveal shin-dig for our families but I finally decided that it would be a fun idea. I didn't surprise them in a cool way like I had always wanted to (I told them on the phone), when I announced our pregnancy, so I thought it would be fun to do with the gender. :) And it really was a lot of fun! Even my dad who originally thought the idea was pretty dumb, had an awesome time! Told you so, Pops! Any who, From the time I woke up yesterday till the party at 6, I was running here and there trying to get it all put together. Pausing only to see the beautiful face and body of our baby girl! I may have gone a bit over board to entertain family and Auntie Kristin, but I knew I needed to keep myself busy or I would drive myself crazy and probably end up telling everyone haha I didn't even have time to clean myself up before hand which explains why I look like such a mess in all the photos. :P

Here are some photos of the fun :)

23 weeks and McClure Wedding fun!

Image
This weekend was our friends, James and Kristin's, wedding! They are finally MARRIED and I am so excited for them. :) It was such a beautiful and fun wedding and everything turned out so great! They are such a beautiful couple inside and out and I hope they are enjoying their much deserved honeymoon in Hawaii! Love you guys!                                                 23 Weeks <3 Size:  Your little doll-sized babe is about to chub up a bit. Her saggy skin will start to fit her frame as fat deposits fill things out. Beginning this week, she'll start to pack on the pounds (which means you will too!) and by month's end she'll be double the weight she is now (though you won't be — whew!). Right now, your baby's organs and bones are visible through her skin, which has a red hue due to developing veins and arteries beneath. But once those fat deposits s...

I wasn't sure if I was going to do a weekly update or not but I think it would be fun for the sake of me getting to look back on this super awesome adventure. ;) Also, I have always enjoyed reading blogs and keeping up in peoples lives, so for those who would like to stay informed about whats going on in my pregnancy/life in general, this is for you too!  Baby bump at 14 weeks Size : Baby is about the size of a lemon. 3 1/2 inches. Total weight gain/loss: The numbers are starting to creep up a little bit each week. :) It is sooo nice having an appetite again but now I want to eat all the time! The goal, though, is that slow and steady wins the race. I read that I should be gaining at least a pound a week since I was a normal weight pre-pregnancy.  Maternity clothes: I'm in that annoying stage where my old clothes are starting to get a bit too snug but most maternity clothes are way too loose. So I have been wearing a lot of legging and t-shirts for the time being. :)...

26 weeks I've got the 'smuggling a melon' look going :) Size : I'm not feeling lazy today so I will actually talk about Harper's developments this week instead of just copying and pasting. ;) This week she has hit the TWO pound mark! And she measures about 9 plus inches. Her eyes are beginning to open this week as well! Although there's not much for her to look at in my womb, she moves more if she senses light (or hears loud noises). I actually just went to a movie and she was moving like crazy through most of it. Now I know why! It was noisy :) All this responsiveness is connected to the fact that her brain is more developed and sophisticated at this point! Yay!  Total weight gain/loss: Things have been staying pretty steady this past week. Maybe I need to eat more? haha I can totally work with that!  Maternity clothes:   I am wearing a lot of the same things over and over again due to the limited amount of things that will fit. It ...
