16.5 weeks.... Almost half way there.

Today I went to the doctors for my 16.5 week check-up. The past two check-ups have been pretty boring. I get to pee in a cup and weigh myself. The good part about the appointment is I get to hear the heart beat. Today as the doctor put the Doppler on my belly, you could here the baby, and then you couldn't. The doctor said sometimes they run to the other side, in which this was one of those cases. But don't worry, we hunted that little peanut down.

The other picture is what our nursery/spare room looks like at this time. We are working to clean it up so in a month or so we can start making the room a nursery.

Other then that, nothing to new. My brother and sister in law found out they are having a girl, which is very exciting. The two cousins will be very close. They are due on March 1st.

The Beer Challange......

One thing I can say that I miss drinking during pregnancy , is beer. Our last trip to Northern CA, we tried to hit every brewery there was along the way. I guess I could say I drank my portion for the year on that trip.

The other day I was thinking about how funny it would be if John filled this Stein we have (his dad got it in Germany) all the way to the top with beer and drink it. You could say it was kinda of a challenge, plus I wanted to see how many beers it would take to fill it to the top. Needless to say, the growler (which is in Johns left hand) is pretty much empty.

These are the strange things you do on a day off while waiting for this little munchkin to arrive.

CHEERS. (if anyone wants to take on John in stein drinking, let us know).

14.5 weeks along... Many more to go....

Well, there is no pretty way of showing off your growing body, but I thought that some of you would like to see what happens to your belly/body as the weeks go on (some of you would like to just look back and remember/laugh). This is my belly at 14.5 weeks. The way I feel, it should be a little bigger. Things are starting to move in there. Supposedly this little person is starting to stretch out.

Nothing to exciting.

Sorry for not blogging lately, but no news is good news. Things are going good. We have not started any decorating or preparing yet. We have about a month and a half before we go to the big doctors appointment where we can find out the sex of the baby and get the newest ultrasound photos. Today I am 14.5 weeks along. As soon as we get some photos taken I will post them. I hope everyone is doing well.
