Beth's Wedding

Not only do we have a countdown till we find out what we are having, but we also have a countdown till one of my best friends gets married. Beth is getting married on June 27th. The same day that we find out the sex of the baby, I also have to go and meet with a seamstress to determine what we are going to do with my bridesmaids dress. I found out that I was preggo 3 days after the dress shop ordered the dresses. I am hoping it will not be too bad. At 17 weeks, the dress still fit and I am hoping that it will be a easy alteration.

I found a Dr!!!!

So I have been looking for a pediatrician for the baby. I was really hoping to use the one I used growing up but I did not think she was taking new patients. I was talking to Diane yesterday and she thought that was the ped the our friend Mary used. Mary does use her and Diane emailed me the number and I called and she is still taking patients!!!! I always loved going to see her. I probably would have hated going to the dr more if she had not been there. I always got strep when I was little and I knew when I went to the dr that I would have to get a shot. All I have to do is go and visit her when I get closer to delivering.

My Mother-in-law's Birthday (a little late)

I am finally putting up pictures from our weekend in South Alabama. I wish I would have taken a picture of all the crawfish they cooked but it sure was good. I can not wait to have more! Katie Jill (Jeremy's Cousin) and I were the last ones standing. I probably would have eaten less but I was standing up while I was eating and I am sure that is why I ate so much. hehe!!

I also took video but I was told not to put any video up but we LOVE "The Inner Tubes."

So I begin the countdown!

So I am going a little crazy because Jeremy is at work and all I can think about is going to the doctor. I never thought I would be so excited about going to the doctor. I am ready for Jeremy to get home so that we can find out together. Even though I am being very impatient, I am soooo glad he will be back for the appointment. I know that that will be one of the first of many days that we will be able enjoy parenthood. I feel as though it will make it even more real to be able to see the baby again and to try and think about our life ahead.

I got an email today from one of the baby websites and it was talking about fear and anxiety and I am getting worried because the fear and anxiety have not set in. I hope it will be like my wedding and not hit me until the very last minute. I went to play bunco last night and the church member who was hosting is pregnant. She had just gotten the furniture put together and she is 34 weeks. Jeremy and I have already gotten so much put together and if we has a crib put up we would be about as far along as they were. I am glad I am doing it early that way I can just relax and not have to worry about that when I can not move things around as much.

Most of my friends know that I am not always the best planner so I feel as though I am going to try to improve that a little bit!

OOOO We Are Halfway There...OOOO Living On A Prayer!!

I not only can not wait until football season but also today marks my 20 week mark! I am so excited and I can not believe I am halfway to the arrival of Baby Adams. The first trimester went so slow but since then they have passed by so fast. I am also seeing more physical changes so they may also be why I feel as though it is going faster.

According to babycenter.com the baby is the size of a small cantaloupe. I just remember looking and the baby was the size of an olive. I am just glad the little cantaloupe is growing well and not making feel bad. I actually went a walked 2 miles the other day with my sister. I hope I can continue that.

The baby is moving!

I have been feeling some for sure kicks the past couple of days! At around 18 weeks, I started feeling like the baby was just pushing against my stomach but this week I am feeling kicking. Yesterday I felt it around 2:30 and again last night around 8. It is the coolest feeling. I drank some sweet tea at about 1 and I wonder if the baby was on some sort of sugar rush. Poor Jeremy wants to feel it but I hate that he will not be able to feel it for a few more weeks. I have tried to put my and on my stomach when he/she is kicking but then it stops so I don't even get to see if it feel different on the outside.

Glider

The past couple of days have been great. I had a wonderful Soon-To-Be Mother's Day and got all kinds of stuff. I got a breast pump, a camera, a my glider for the nursery, and a couple of other gifts. It was so good.

I am looking bigger by the day and still feeling great. I hope that continues. I will be half way through the pregnancy on Thursday. Time has flown by. In the first trimester I did not think it could go any slower but now it seems to be going so fast. I am just trying to get things ready around the house so that I will not be doing it when I get really big.
