Baby Crib

I went to Logan a few weekends ago so that Chris and I could take care of some things in the baby's nursery. I'm happy to say that the crib has been assembled and the bedding has been washed. All we need now is the little man!

Dear Tums

Thank you from the bottom of my heartburn for giving me relief from the inferno that is always in my throat. Your quick action makes me a happier girl.

Sincerely,

Me

It's True

I already have my ticket to see the midnight movie and I'm totally excited about it! I just hope that being 8-months pregnant won't hinder my ability to stay awake for it :)

Baby Boy

We had our ultrasound on Monday and found out that we're having a little boy! To celebrate, we went shopping.

I'm afraid this could get out of hand before long :)

Logan...here we come!

It's official: Chris was accepted to graduate school at Utah State University! He is going to start the Masters of Information Systems program in about two weeks, and we are so excited. For the time being, we are going to move from our apartment into my parents' basement, and Chris is going to "commute" to Logan during the week and come home on the weekends. In order to keep our health insurance, I need to continue working until I have the baby. Once the baby arrives, we'll officially move to Logan.

P.S. This in no way means that we are going to become Aggie fans. Our blood is Cougar blue, through and through (well, at least mine is).

Bump in the Night

About a week and a half ago, I started to feel little flutters in my stomach. I wasn't sure if it was the baby or not, so I decided to pay close attention to everything I felt, with the hopes that I could learn to decipher between the baby and other bodily movements.

Last night, I felt some more flutters, so I decided to put my hand on my stomach to see if I could feel the flutter on the outside of my body as well. Imagine my excitment when I could not only feel it inside, but I also felt the movement on the outside! I was so excited. So of course, I wanted Chris to feel it, too. Unfortunately, the baby realized what we were doing and decided to stop playing.

A few hours later, while we were laying in bed, I felt the baby move again. I grabbed Chris' hand and placed it on my stomach and told him to wait. A few seconds later, the baby moved and he totally felt it. The look on his face was priceless!

Here is the conversation that followed:

Me: "Did you feel that?"
Chris: "Yeah."
Me: "Isn't that so cool?"
Chris: "Are you sure you don't just have gas?"

Luckily, the baby moved a few more times while we sat there, so I was able to convince Chris that it was in fact the baby, and not my bowels.
