31 Weeks

Well, as you can see, we are both growing steadily!  Lots of people have told me that I started showing overnight.  I don't know about that, but okay :)  We start going to the doctor every 2 weeks now.  The only concern (which isn't really a concern yet) is that Kiley is breech.  She's still got time to turn though, so hopefully she will.  I think she's just really comfy :)  The official estimate is that she'll be around 7 pounds when she's born.  Our childbirth classes are going really well.  We're learning a lot & I'm glad we're taking them.  Brad is making progress on the crib (yay!!)  He also got the room all painted & I finished the curtains, so at least she'll have a cute room to come home to!

Sorry for my goofy expression...
it was right before bed & I was really tired!



Pictures of our Kiley girl

We had our 3rd trimester ultrasound today!  Since everything's going well, it's our last one unless something comes up that needs to be checked out.
First...she is still a girl!  And for all those people that like to remind us how they get the gender wrong sometimes (especially with girls), we have had very clear pictures of her girl parts so I'm telling you, she's a girl!!
Second...she is measuring right on track.  For all the people who like to comment that I don't look big enough, yada yada yada...you are wrong.  She's still got ~10 weeks in there...give it time & I'm sure I'll look miserable :)
Third...here are the pictures!  Kiley is still camera shy.  She had her hand in front of her face the whole time & would not move it despite the ultrasound tech creating an earthquake in my belly.  She did start moving her hand between a fist & open palm...it was so cool!!  She's so talented :)

Still Around...

So, I haven't posted in awhile, but we are still doing good!  Here's a quick update of what's been going on with us:

• Had a doctor's appointment a couple weeks ago.  Everything looked good.  I was measuring exactly what I should be (so for all you people who say I'm too small, you are wrong!)
• I turned 27.  Happy birthday to me!
• We had Christmas with Brad's family & with mine.  My parents stayed with us for about a week & my brother's family was there for a couple of days.  It was a lot of fun!  Kiley sure got a lot of presents & she's not even born yet!
• I took (& passed!) my glucose screening test.  And my HIV test, in case you were worried :)
• I am now in the 3rd & final trimester, and it's 2011...the year we'll have our baby!
• We started our prepared childbirth classes last night.  They last for 5 weeks.  I'm really glad we're going cuz I'm pretty clueless & scared about all that!!  We toured Labor & Delivery, which was kinda wierd cuz the only other time either of us has been there was when I had my D&C before we knew my first pregnancy was ectopic.  I'm glad to have much happier reasons to be going there now :)

Well, there you have it.  We have another ultrasound & appt. in about 2 weeks.  Can't wait to see how she's grown & what she looks like now.  I start going for appointments every two weeks after that.  AAAAAH!  We're gonna have a baby!!
