My Lovely Baby Bump...

I am now finally loving being pregnant; I'm not sick, tired and cranky anymore!! It's weird to watch my tummy grow and feel the baby move inside me, it's so exciting:) Me and the baby are measuring right where we should, I've gained a total of 8 lbs. so far, the baby kicks hard enough to see my belly move and I was 21 weeks yesterday..more than half way, YEA!!!

This was my belly at 15 weeks

And on Christmas morning
My belly at 21 weeks, he is as long as a large carrot and weighs about 10 ounces

We were so excited last night because Jon felt him move for the first time, it was amazing and I even started crying..I'm so emotional right now! I've felt him moving for a few weeks now and Jon has been asking when he can start to feel him, his wish was finally granted. I then proceded to drink a mug of hot chocolate to get the baby to move more and we layed on the bed and watched my belly dance around with his big kicks; we love this experience and are so excited to meet him:)

Catching Up

I promise to try and be better at blogging!! Here's lots of pictures to wrap up our 2009 and the beginning of our wonderful 2010:)

I had to show you all how huge Mr. Duke is getting...and still growing.

We celebrated some birthdays, Wendy bird on January 16th and my dad on the 18th!

I got a new neice on the 6th of January, Ava Lee Moreau

Duke made progress with the chiuauas ( I don't know if that's how spell it?? Also, notice Duke's favorite spot to sleep....any couch in sight)

We had another wonderful Christmas, Jon spoiled me again this year, and the baby got lots of fun stuff too!!

Jon opening the blanket I made for him and the babe

Duke even got a stocking from Santa this year too:)

We celebrated Michele's birthday and Christmas Eve at my sister Lisa's house

We looked at the lights downtown and went on a carriage ride, haven't done that in years and it was so fun!

And finally we went to Festival of Trees

Ultrasound Pics:)

Thers's his little manhood

He was kicking and stretching inside me the whole time:) These were my favorite to his legs all long!!

This only 1 of many "I'm a boy" shots

His foot pushing against me again

Oh baby oh baby...

It's a BOY!!!! Were so excited, we went to Fetal Fotos tonight and found out were having a little boy:) I was shocked, I was 100% sure it was going to be a girl and I started crying the second the nurse told us what he was. It was the best experience ever, he was kicking and moving all around; being pregnant is definatly the best roller coaster ride of emotion I've ever been on:) I'll post some pics of the the ultrasound soon!......P.S. 4 months and 3 days today, 165 left woo woo!

13 Weeks

We are having..................a shrimp! This is how big our baby is this week, how exciting:)

P.S. Still sick as a dog...just the thought of putting that shrimp in my mouth makes me wanna vomit:(

P.S.S. Peppermint breath savers are my life savers right now, I pop them all day long:)

That's all for now, have a great day!!

My Ode to Jonathan

Jon, you've been a saint the last few weeks while I've been sick; you really know how to take care of your sick wife! So I let me tell you all the reasons why I'm so in love with you and maybe this will make up for all the things you've been doing for me:)

1) You were my first and only true love

2) You know me better than I know myself and know how to keep me in line:)

3) I love that you wake up with Duke every night and pick up his poo poo

4) I love that I always tell you I'm going to send you to a life-lesson class and you agree

5) I love that you make me laugh everyday of our lives together

6) I love how good you take care of me when I'm sick, you'll be a great daddy:)

7) I love that you hold the Preisthood and have used it many times on me as well as other family

8) I love how you get on my case about the toothpaste container being gross after I use it.......and I love losing track of how many times a day you brush your teeth:)

9)I love your bargain shopping

10) I can't leave out the fact that I kinda like your long locks still

11) I love being your highschool sweetheart!

12) I love that you took me to the Temple to be sealed to you

13) I love that the last thing I hear every night is "Good night, love you babe"

14) I think it's kinda weird that you smell your socks everytime you take them off..is that a boy thing?

15) But most of all...I love that your the father of our baby growing inside me and I can't wait to experience that chapter of our lives together!

Well done Jon...

he got me pregnant..and just in time for a pregnant belly on Christmas!! I'm 11 weeks and due June 1st:) I've been super sick but it's all for a good cause; were very excited to be new parents and seeing the little heart beat today just made it even that more real to us!! Yea for us...we have a worm that is 2 inches long, sigh:)
