Got Cupcakes?

26 weeks:

I passed my glucose test yesterday! For some reason I have really been worried about this. I think it is because I love sweets and I was worried they were going to tell me I couldn't eat them. I would probably appreciate it in the end, but for now I am so glad I do not have to follow a special diet. My craving lately has been cupcakes. Everyday I want a cupcake! I obviously don't give into the craving daily or I would really be in trouble!! I can't really give in to any of my cravings on a daily basis because none of them are healthy. They include pancakes, waffles, milk and most recently pizza, cupcakes and Ryan's homemade milkshakes!

As far as our baby girl goes...everything is still looking great and she has really been moving around a lot. She is getting stronger and beginning to wake me up in the night with her movements. Ryan and I went to the movies the other night and she moved from the time the trailers started until the movie was over! It was amazing to feel her that active for longer than a few minutes. I guess she could hear how loud it was and it kept her on her toes!

First Movements and belly shots

1/13/10: 20 weeks and 5 days (Yes Miller made the photo, he will be such a good big brother!)

Today: 22 weeks and 5 days

Today is a special day because Ryan got to feel her move for the first time! I started feeling her during my 18th week but it was vague and I wasn't always for sure if it was her or just my belly gurgling. It has been definite baby movements since last week and I was able to feel her on the outside of my belly on Sunday the 17th. Her movements have been sporadic but starting this week I have been feeling her on a daily basis several times a day! I couldn't wait for Ryan to feel her, so I was so excited when he got to this morning.

I have more sonogram pictures but I am having technical difficulty so I cannot get them scanned onto my computer. The sonogram tech took some 4D pictures and they are really neat to see. You can tell she has no fat on her body but you can see her face perfectly. Hopefully I can get the issues resolved soon so we can share our pictures!

It's a Girl!

December 29th was our "big ultrasound"! Here are some pictures of our healthy baby girl.
