Wide Load

I think I need one of those orange triangles, a flashing light escort, and one of those banners to identify me as a slow moving, wide load vehicle. :-) For those of you who have ever walked anywhere with me, you know that me moving slowly is a rare event. I realize that I'm not really all that big yet, but I feel like it and am concerned about how big I will get over the next 10 weeks.

Also, I decided that I will never be able to have Kenna's picture taken as one of those cute naked baby pictures....she has too many clothes for me to have her picture taken without them! :-)

Cuteness!

We had a 4D ultrasound today and we could kind of see her face! She apparently is not a fan of the paparazzi. As soon as she figures out that we're trying to get her picture, she tries to turn away. Oh well, I was excited to see her face!

Update

I haven't posted in forever, mainly for two reasons: a) nothing exciting to post, and b) nobody reads this anyway! :-) Once there are baby pictures and other cute things to put up, I will probably work harder at spreading the word. Anyway, I'm pretty much at that boring stage of pregnancy. Nothing much is happening, other than getting fatter...(I started thinking about how much wait I will have to lose to get back down to where I want/need to be. I cried.) I've had an incident with falling on the stairs that was pretty scarey and painful- and included an embarassing moment that I can share when I am more ready to think about the funniness than the scariness. Since this past Friday didn't go as planned, I will be trying the 4D ultra-sound thing on this Friday. Somehow, I'm pretty sure that she won't be cooperative since she is related to both Devin and I! Oooh, that reminds me of something good, since I had some ultrasounds this weekend, I have further confirmation that yes, she is a girl. Whew! Because a little boy would look pretty silly in the ADORABLE girl clothes I have so far :-) Speaking of adorable....in case someone actually does look at this, you HAVE to go visit katiemayes.blogspot.com to see picture of Madeline Mayes, who is so freaking cute! Alright, that's enough writing for my own amusement. Hopefully, I will actually have exciting stuff to post after ultrasounds and showers in the coming weeks. Then people can read this! :-)

Ugh

So, I just put on a pair of jeans I bought to wear while pregnant, and they are too small! :-( This, combine with the underwear challenge, and a whole bunch of too-small shoes, makes for one depressed fat chick. I know, I know, I'm pregnant, not fat. But let's face it, every woman wants to be like those adorable women on the pregnancy magazines that is a skinny, little beautiful thing with just a belly. However, I guess that means you would have to start as a skinny, little beautiful thing, right? :-) Hahaha. Anyway, Kennedy is moving around like crazy. I have a doctors appointment on Monday and I really want to ask her about the effects of stress on the baby. I'm exhausted, and hope I can sleep tonight. Alright, enough whining for one day. Off to bed.

Baby, or just gas-y?

I THINK I felt her move the other day, but I’m not positive. I keep hearing different things of what it should feel like. It was either the baby, my hunger, or gas OH! I just felt her! YES! Ok, I’m a total paranoid psycho, so I will be that woman who runs to the emergency room because the baby stopped moving for 30 seconds. I feel much better now that I have felt her move repeatedly… Holly’s right, it’s kinda like gas bubbles.
Beth came up with a nickname, so it made me like Kennedy even more. I was thinking of what people would call her when they shorten her name and Beth said, “Kenna”. I like that! Yay, I’m getting excited!

It's A Girl!

We had a doctor’s appointment on Monday and, according to the ultrasound, it’s a girl! Also according to the ultrasound, I’m actually 19 weeks and 6 days, so I’m a little farther along than I thought! At the moment, the leader in the Name Game is Kennedy Grace. It might change, but I would like to have it figured out soon so we can start calling her that. Now, if I can just get everything else in my life figured out!

1st Dr. Appt

And it left a lot to be desired! All I did was talk to the nurse practicioner and have some blood work done. I go back on the 25th and we are hoping to find out if its a boy or girl!
