30 week update

Actually 30 weeks and 5 days today :)  So far, so good.  Just getting bigger and bigger and he is as well.  He is sooooo active, its kind of scary :)  But I count it a blessing that we are not worried when the last time I felt him because he is always going!  He is definitely running out of room in there because I am always short of breath and I don't even want to begin on how many times a day I have to run to the bathroom.  Other than being very uncomfortable anywhere and everywhere, everything has been well and good.  I even finished my last decorating project for his room yesterday!!!!!
Here is the 30 week bump


Janiece volleyball spring season

Janiece started her volleyball season again the end of March.  She has already played 4 games and has about 4 more left.  So far the team is 3 win vs 1 loss, so they are doing pretty good.  Janiece has been doing fantastic at learning to spike the ball back to the other team.  It's so fun to see her get more improved each season!  Hopefully she will make her school team this fall!  Here is some pictures so far.



There's that spiking picture!

Winter Camp

This post is a little behind but I finally got some pictures that I have been waiting for.  Anyways, so Luke and I help out at our church with their student ministry group.  Me and my friend Nikelle lead the 8th and 9th grade girls and Luke and Nikelle's husband Colby lead the jr and senior boys.  The Bennett's talked us into going to summer camp about 1 1/2 ago and we have been hooked since.  So we had the pleasure of going up to Payson to a camp there for our winter camp with our students in Feb while Nikelle was very, very pregnant and I was pregnant as well :)
We loved being apart of these kids lives and we hope that it will impact them in some kind of way.
Here are some pictures from winter camp.  We were there for 3 days.

We were in charge of picking up the pizzas on our way in to the camp

28 weeks

We have been busy the last 2 weeks getting Titus room ready.  Luke started on the paint and then put up some trim to separate the colors, when he finished that, then it was my turn to put up the curtains.  We are now just waiting to get a dresser and glider so we can finish the room!!  

I had my follow up appointment yesterday which everything was good.  The doctor went over the detailed ultrasound with me and said one kidney was a little bigger than the other but usually goes away by the time they are born.  The heart beat was strong and normal and then I got to do the dreaded glucose test.  Which now they have a glucose drink in fruit punch that I thought was pretty good. ha ha  But we will be finding out the results on that soon hopefully.

I have been feeling fine, just have been having a lot of Braxton Hick's contractions which I was worried about since Janiece came early.  But the doctor went over what to watch for so I feel better about it.  But now that I just hit 28 weeks, I feel like I could sleep for the remaining 12 weeks, lol.  But I woke up this morning feeling under the weather so I'm hoping that I'm not coming down with something since I can't really take anything!!  :(

Here is the 28 week bump :)



Here is some pictures of what the room looks like so far, can't wait to get it finished!!

Paint finished and trim going up


Trim done and crib in :)


Curtains up


And the baby blanket for the crib that Luke's mom just finished!!  LOVE IT :)


Easter

I just love the holidays.  It can get a little crazy with trying to fit both families in but I love how me and Luke have decided that were not rushing and when we make it, thats when we make it!  
The girls and I dyed some eggs a couple days before Easter.



With Easter being on Sunday, we usually don't have our girls on Sunday but we were able to get both of them all weekend!!  So Sunday morning they got up to find some eggs and Easter baskets and then got ready for our church service.  We went to church together, which I get super happy when all four of us can go together to church, it doesn't happen very often.  And while we were waiting to go in my mom shows up!!!!  It was a very beautiful service and glad we got to share it with my mom!  We then headed over to Luke's aunts and uncles house for Easter lunch.  Here are some pictures.

Our family :)

We then had to drop off Ciera so she can do her mom's side of the family's Easter celebration and we headed over to my grandparents for my side of the families Easter.  We enjoyed seconds on Easter lunch and just hung out with family :)

24 Week update and another ultrasound

Today we hit 24 weeks.  I can't believe I am 6 months prego. Seems just like yesterday we just found out!!  Well here is the bump....


Yesterday we had our routine follow up at the OB/Gyn, everything was good.  He is measuring right on point and I'm gaining weight right on point (I guess that's a good thing, lol)
His heart beat has jumped back up to 150 beats.

This morning we had our detailed ultrasound to double check the heart arrhythmia and the echogenic focus thing.  The detailed ultrasound is amazing.  We saw that he has monkey toes like his dad :( And he has the cutest little face, some strong calf muscles already and he seems like he just might be a big healthy boy.  He is weighing 1 pound and 8 oz.
The tech looked at the heart and we listened to the heart beat again and she said she couldn't tell where the other tech picked up the arrhythmia!!  Yahoo (I am hoping that is also a good thing)  She said that the baby is moving A LOT and thought it could of been that.  But we will know for sure when the doctor calls with the results.  But already its sounds great!
Of course she got some amazing pictures which I just have to share!

His cute little profile!

3D pictures of his face that I can actually make out and don't look like blobs :)



The cutest little nose and lips.  And he was talking to himself once again.

Some tiny fingers, which she counted all 10 of them are there! lol

I just love the little feet!  She pointed out how you can see the 2nd toe is the same or if not bigger than the big toe, yep monkey feet like his dad :( lol

Strong muscular leg! ha ha

3D pic of his leg, she pointed out the nice calf muscle. ha ha

And his little face!!  Soooo cute.

So we don't have anything else until our next follow up appt in a month, in which I have to do the dreaded glucose test :(
But he is a very busy and active guy already, I enjoy all the punches and kicks all day long and love how when we lay down for bed he does as well!  Already trained, SWEET! ha ha
