Oh Boy!

Well as most of you probably already know, we are having a boy! (I wanted to post about it though for journaling purposes.) We couldn't be more excited! I am 21 weeks today and am counting down until our little guy comes. (I know I have awhile, I just want him to come already though and so does Mike) Anyway, since we found out we were pregnant life has been crazy busy. The first thing on MY list was to find a bigger place to live. We only lived in a 1 bedroom apartment and that was not going to cut it for me. So needless to say, I think every apartment complex/condo/etc. in our area knows who we are. After all the different places we looked at and many prayers, we got into a house. No we didn't buy it, we are still renting, but IT'S A HOUSE! We moved in the 1st weekend in August and have loved every minute of it. It's 2 bedroom, 1 bath and has a huge backyard with an orange and lemon tree and a built in horseshoe pit, ha. So if you bring your tent, you can camp out in the backyard when you come visit, k (The baby has dibs on the second bedroom!) So the 1st thing on MIKE'S list was to make sure that I was feeling ok. I was feeling great until about the 7th week and then it all went downhill. I got the typical throwing up morning sickness that lasted until exactly my 14th week. Crazy how that works, uh? He has started to kick like crazy, especially when I lay down to go to bed at night. Let's hope he's not a night owl, cause his parents sure aren't. We're happy that he is going to have so many cousins close in age on both sides of the family! There are many things to do and get for him, but we can get those things over the next couple of months until he arrives. We have so many mixed emotions right now, but I think most of all we are just excited that our little guy is growing and healthy! We have been so blessed!

Me at 20 weeks

Who do you think he looks like?

Thumbs up! (Hopefully he's a lefty like his Dad)
Oh I'm due December 20th!

Oh my gosh I had no idea!! Congrats, that's so awesome, and I'm sorry about the morning sickness, there seriously is nothing worse, you just can't even describe it!
Good luck with the rest of it, and finding a name, we're still having a hard time with that one! It'll be so fun to have him so close to Christmas too.... I'm happy for you guys :)
