19 Weeks, Kicks and Punches, and a lot of love..

Today I am 19 weeks..

and our little boy is the size of a.. 

MANGO!

His sensory development is exploding!

His brain is designating specialized areas for smell,

 taste, hearing, vision, and touch. 

Some research suggests that he may be able to hear our voices now. 

:) 

So I have been talking up a storm..

He weighs about 8 1/2 ounces 

and measures 6 inches, head to bottom

but we know my little baby boy is bigger than that..

So we will just have to find that out on Friday :) 

 His arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other

 and the rest of his body now.

 His kidneys continue to make urine

 and the hair on his scalp is sprouting.

Now how cute is that update :) 

I started feeling him kick on Wednesday, 

right after our last post actually. 

But he was so so stubborn

 that Fielding was never really able to feel anything

until last night..

This little stinker was up all night thinking I was its kicking bag. :) 

but.. I was happy, 

because Fielding got to feel!

Its so much better when you can feel them

because it calms all the worries down. 

and lets me know my little boy is happy,

healthy, and best of all.. SAFE! 

How far along? 19 Weeks
Maternity clothes? No. Just pony tails, and Be Bands :)
Best moment this week: KICKING! :)

 Miss Anything? Lunch meat.. 

 Movement: Every morning, and every night.. :)
Food Cravings: Pizza, Salsa, and pickle flavored sunflower seeds :)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Everything that smells.

 Labor Signs: NO! haha. and hopefully none for awhile. :)
Symptoms: I dont really have any symptoms except for the normal exhaustion..
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy of course :)
Looking forward to: 21 more weeks until this baby decides to join us :)

So.. We have our last doctors appointment while we are in Lousiana on Friday. 

I cant stinking wait to see my little man AGAIN! 

I have been so blessed to be able to get all the ultrasounds that I have..

There is nothing like seeing your child all the time :) 

So, I am sure I will post those pictures of the ultrasound,

 and I will tell you all about it. 

Until then you all have a wonderful week,

and here is something to leave you with..

I bought a new outfit for our little man,

and I know Fielding will surely dislike it. :) 

 but that makes me like it even more..

Whenever he doubts it,

I will just pull this little onsie out.. 

that should shut him up ;)

SURPRISE!

Boy.. Have a been running behind on this thing.

Sorry about that..

Well, Fielding and I have quite some news for all of you. :)

Yesterday we went to the doctor, and got the permission to say..

WE ARE GONNA HAVE AN AMAZING LIL BABY. :)



We have been in and out of the doctors office,
because my first while was high-risk..
I have never gotten poked by a needle so much in my life,
but I have some good news..
I am getting less scared of getting my blood drawn. I just let them go at it..
But I only let certain people do it, the other girl that did my last one..
No way will she ever do it again.. I had a scab for like two weeks, and a huge bruise..
and that shouldn't of happened. I seriously looked like some sort of drug addict,
and forced myself to wear long sleeves or sweaters everywhere I went,
when it was over 80 degrees outside.. BLEHK.! Anyways back to the NEWS!!

But yesterday, we saw it move its arms and legs, and twirl around..
We also got to hear the heartbeat and now its all just showering down.

I dont know how to explain it, but I am sure a lot of other people
that have been pregnant feel the same way,
It didn't feel real until I saw it move, and heard the incredibly fast heart beat.

I tried explaining to Fielding that it looks just like a Potter,
but he is not going to have any of the nonsense talk..
But really, look closely..
IT LOOKS JUST LIKE ME.! :)

Who knows where our life is going to take us now,
but really, I couldn't be more excited.

In two weeks, we go in again and get another ultrasound.
Dont you guys worry, of course I will post the pictures on here for you all :)

Oh.. and thank you for all the love and support that you have all given us.
We are blessed for you all to be in our lives.
