21 Weeks

This week has been great. We registered at Babies R Us this week and it was so much fun to pick things out that Collin will use sometime down the road. I love all the cute clothes and stuff and can't wait to finish up his room. We also put up his Crib my mom got us for him and put the Glider together that K got me for my Birthday present. It was so great to see it coming together. I'll post some Picture this week.
I also started watching the new baby and it's been really rough but we're getting through it and she's starting to learn how it's going to work. But man is it a lot of work. Once Collin comes it's going to be for sure an adventure. Griffin is adjusting ok to it he's a bit more needy but we're getting through it.
I'm starting to get really tired again I think we're going through a growth spert because I constintly feel pulling or streching and I can feel C kicking a lot more then last week. He feels like he's trying to kick his way out of my Vag already not good it doesn't feel great either.
It's so crazy to feel all this love for someone I've never ever met. I don't know what I would do without him at this point he gets me through so much. I love thinking about what we're going to do when he gets here. His first baseball game and football game. His first everything excites me. I love feeling him move and kick it's amazing to think their is really a baby in there.
I set up our Hospital Tour for Oct 5th and I just can't wait!

20 Weeks & Big New!



We found out we're expecting a little boy! We couldn't be more happier about it. Kevin is the only male to carry on his family name and now we have one more to add to the list. Collin Gene is on track and is looking great! He's measuring in the 50th percentile for his growth. It was so amazing to see him moving around and kicking and waving his hand. He was great at letting us know he was a boy that's for sure. We were able to see his heart beating it was a healthy 143Bpm. Which is great and the tech said it's right where we want it to be. He showed us his arms and legs and we got some what of a profile view but not much. He decided to curl up into a little ball and not let the tech finish up what he needed to get. But he assured us everything looked great and there is nothing to worry about. But he told us that we needed to come back in a week or two to get another view and finish up somethings he didn't get. Which is never bad thing I would love to look at him every week if I could. So our next U/S and Appt is Sept 15th I can't wait to get another look at our little boy.
It's so strange to call him Collin or a boy. It's still hard to believe that he's in there. But he reassures me every so often since I can feel him move around and kick now. Which is the most amazing thing ever. It's the coolest feeling I've ever felt. I feel so connected to him and I can't believe we're half way there already. It's kind of hard to believe I didn't think we would ever be here now. It weird to feel him move his hand or foot which ever it is across my belly. Kevin can't wait to feel him I know he wants to know but it might not happen for awhile.
We started our registry this week too which was a lot of fun to pick things out that he'll be using and wearing. Now to wait for my showers which are going to be great and the holiday season which is quickly approaching us.
