18 Weeks

We're almost half way there! We had our 18 week appointment yesterday and everything is looking great. Grandma Barb got to come and hear the babies heart beat...and of course her and the nurses had to talk about how wonderful life as a grandma will be! Heart rate was 152.....does this mean boy or girl is what we're wondering?! Next appointment is August 5th and we can finally know what this baby is....Aaron and I our counting down the days!!! Here's an 18 week picture....



Aaron got me my first mommy-to-be gift. Funny story though...my hormones were out of whack (or so we'll say) one night and I was crying because he wouldn't go for a walk with me, wasn't reading the baby books, and was on the computer instead of spending time with me. So finally he said "if you knew what i was doing you'd feel bad for crying" and showed me he was ordering me a gift (reason he was on the computer) and he had gotten the idea from the baby book (because he had really been reading it!).....man did i feel bad! I collect the Willow Tree angels...here is a picture of the one called Cherish that he bought me!
