It's a Girl!

      We are so excited!  Our precious little girl is healthy!  

      She was laying on her tummy for a long time which proved to make finding out exactly what she was a little difficult.  Chad and I appreciate her respectful and modest stance!  

Sucking her Thumb

Fist Bump Up Top - Yeah, she's cool!

Week 19

It's Wednesday, June 20, 2012.  Tomorrow morning we go for an ultrasound to find out if we're having a boy or girl.  Oh, I hope this precious little thing cooperates!  Cross your fingers!

Week 18 - Getting Off the Couch

So I didn't feel well for about 5 weeks during the first trimester.  By Week 13, I thought I was home free.  Unfortunately (or fortunately), that same sour-stomach feeling returns if I lay around all day.  Doesn't my body know that teachers do that sort of thing during Summer Break?!?  So much for being sedentary!  As a result, I have taken up walking at Seneca and/or Cherokee Park here in Louisville.  Besides the beautiful scenery and amazing people-watching-opportunities, I have the most amazing walking partner.  I just can't say enough wonderful things about this dad-to-be!  He's kind, thoughtful, funny, and he gets me off my rear and gets my heart pumping.  Thanks Babe!  My body, mind, and soul appreciate you!

Week 16 & 17 - Contract Accepted!

A double shot today.

Week 16

Week 17

     We've been busy the past couple of weeks looking at houses.  We're not thrilled at the idea of bringing a newborn home to a place where one neighbor parties until 4am, sometimes screaming at the top of his lungs at the video game Modern Warfare 3, another neighbor's dogs bark at every suspect footstep, and where even another neighbor screams bloody murder when he forgets his medicine and sees hallucinations.  

    

      So, we've been busy the past couple of weeks looking at houses in our price range and dreaming of raising Baby T in a house with a big yard.  And just this past Monday we put an offer in on a cute Cape Cod with a medium yard - and, hooray hooray, our contract was accepted!  We are excited, overwhelmed, and looking forward to yet another big happening in our lives!
