So, I went in for my doctor's appointment for this month and the doctor did an ultrasound. The heartbeat was 158 beats per minute and the baby looked great. She got to look at the baby's "parts" and the baby is a BOY!! Or at least that is what she thinks the baby is right now. I am supposed to get my long ultrasound next month and she will check again. She stated that she has never been wrong, so she didn't want to give me a definite till next week. So, I'm still waiting to get boy stuff, but we are very excited. Matt is very happy with himself. I am 16 weeks as of tomorrow and I've only gained 2 lbs. The doc says it's okay and that I'll make up for it later :)Here are a couple of pictures.

Maternity Shopping

This weekend, March 20, Mom and Dad came out to visit us. We went to Rapid City on Saturday and went maternity clothes shopping. We found some really cute clothes and above are a couple of pictures. The one in the white shirt is with my jeans bundled underneath the shirt. We were trying to see if it will fit when I'm farther along. The Mom and Dad were supposed to leave on Monday morning, but are still here due to a blizzard that came in on early Monday morning. We are enjoying having them here. Plus, they got to see the baby in an ultrasound on Friday afternoon. The baby was moving all over the place and made it hard to tell if it was a girl or boy. I am still supposed to go in tomorrow to see my doctor, so maybe we can tell then. I will also post a couple of pictures of the blizzard.

First Trimester Pics

So, I decided to take some belly pics. These are my first trimester pics and I thought I'd better get some on the blogsite even though you can't really tell. I have a little belly, but I'm looking forward to it getting much bigger :) I'll keep you all updated soon if we are able to find out the sex on the 25th. I'll also add more belly pics and ultrasound pics as the months go on. The one with the brown shirt is the most recent picture.
