18 weeks and ultrasound!

We had our anatomy scan today. Baby looked perfect! We stuck with our plan and didn't find out the sex. I am actually surprised at my whole attitude towards not finding out this time! I wasn't even tempted to find out during the ultrasound. Before we left, I actually asked the ultrasound tech if she needed to document the sex, she said no, so I told her please do not document it. So now nobody knows! It will be an amazing surprise in July! I cannot wait!

It's so exciting not knowing who is in there, kicking away. At first I was worried not finding out would make it harder to bond with this baby while he/she is still in my womb, especially since this one wasn't planned, but I am finding it to be just the opposite. It's hard to explain, but it's like I am not focusing so much on the sex of the baby, the name, etc. I am just focusing on the person. It's just an amazing feeling.

Our surprise baby... I am already so in love with this little person.

My friend had her baby!

My friend had her baby yesterday! She was barely 38 weeks, and had her c-section (baby was breech) set for March 1st, but baby had other plans! Her water broke early yesterday morning, and she was born by c-section just a few hours later. She is beautiful and looks a lot like her daddy.

I wished they lived closer because I'd be there is a heartbeat, but they live over 2 hours away. I can't wait to meet her, hopefully with the next week or so.

16 and 17 weeks

I've been MIA the past few weeks because my crappy Dell laptop died on me and I couldn't post pictures and blog from my phone. I finally got my new laptop in the mail (an HP, no more crappy Dell's for me), so here I am at 16 and 17 weeks:
