Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends. We spend the weekend in Mascot with my mom and dad and had a great time. We were even lucky enough to make time to see Derek, Alyson and Kylee too!

Me and Kylee
Me and my family at Texas Roadhouse

Long time best friends

No more little baby bump!

Kylee let Baby Lane borrow her jacket!

As you can tell, Baby Lane still doesn't have a name. Marley is the one and only name we have thought about and I love it! I am not sure if it will still be an option now that the movie Marley & Me is coming out. I am afraid it will be over used. What to do?! Also, Jared has finally felt her move and her lucky Aunt Amy did too! They are the only 2 so far that have felt her (I think she is stubborn like me)

Ultrasound pictures!

It's about time I share her ultrasound pictures with you all!

This is the first picture we have. At this point we just called it Baby Lane.

Now we know she was a 'she' all along!

Baby Lane at 9 weeks 1 day

We now know your a girl!!

Second ultrasound - 20.5 weeks

She doesn't have a definite name yet, but she does have her own tree!

Our Dr. Visit...

I was going to wait until tomorrow to do this post but with my pregnancy memory I might forget all that needs to be said. lol

Me, Jared and my mom went to the Dr. this morning. They take my blood pressure and say it is elevated, no problem though b/c it was just nerves. I had gained 1 pound in 3 weeks, so I am up to 3 pounds total gain. Just like every time I go in they ask for a urine sample. So here I go into the bathroom, I start thinking about my blood pressure, thinking about the idiot who wrote on the bathroom door "I love my baby", thinking about my flu shot etc.... and then I was finished peeing and SUPRISE! I forgot to pee in the cup!! The idiot who wrote on the wall wasn't so stupid now, I bet she at least remembered to use the cup! At this point I was either going to laugh or cry. I choose to laugh, I am sure the nurses are used to pregnant women loosing their mind! So I then had to go out and admit my stupidy to momma, Jared and the nurses. I laughed until I cried.

Alright, off to the ultrasound room!! She quickly sets me up and says she thinks it is a little girl! She does all the measurements and says everything is measuring perfectly. (I was kinda wondering if they had it wrong since I am not showing or gaining - she said I was just lucky) The only thing they saw that could be a problem with the baby is her little kidney's were swollen b/c they had fluid in them - meaning they are not emptying out completely. Dr. Moffet said she normally sees this in boys and Jared asked if he still had a chance for a boy and she quickly said nope! So we now need to pray for her little kidneys! This is often corrected in time but they will do another ultrasound at 32 weeks just to check. Also, I will have to have a shot at 30 weeks b/c my blood type is 0- and this could be a problem in the future. Long and confusing story short, they have to "hide" my blood from the babies b/c I could build up antibodies to fight off the baby thinking it's bad. I don' t really understand it completely but all I know is I will get a shot to make everything better. I met two ladies in the waiting room who said they hated me they said they were huge at 5 months and they couldn't believe I was even pregnant let alone 5 months and still in my regular clothes. I promise to try and get some pictures up soon. See, belly pictures have always kinda freaked me out, so I am not sure I can go that far but I will at least do something so you can track my progress. I believe that's all to report for now, I go back in 4 weeks for another check up. Thank you for all your prayers, love and support. I love hearing from you! FYI: She is very active now and I feel her kicking all the time! If I can figure out how to put the ultrasound pictures or video up I will and you can see her kick me and her 4d pictures!!

Baby Lane

Baby Lane is a GIRL!!

Pray for Jared, he is already dreading her teenage years!!
