Our baby B!

May 15, 2008

I know I'm a little behind on keeping up with this blog but I'm trying to play catch up quick! These pictures were taken when I was 21 weeks. The ultrasound took an hour and half because we actually got to be guinea pigs for this new machine. So naturally it took awhile for the doc to learn how to use it but we got a free CD of pictures and video. The video is hard to see since it is a 3D image but I think you can all figure it out. The docs were very impressed at how much the baby moved...he/she wouldnt stop! But it just proved how healthy he/she is. We even got to see detailed images of the heart. Warren and my mom went with me and they were both tortured not being able to find out if the baby is a he or she. Baby B is about 1 pound in these pictures.

First up, the black and whites. Here is his/her profile with the hand coming towards his/her face. I love the nose!! You can see the heart in his chest this picture. It is the fuzzy round thing.

Here is the arm and thigh.

And now for the 3D images...kinda weird and sometimes creepy but still really cool! Here he/she is rubbing his/her face with his (I'm tired of the his/her thing so to make things easy it is a he for now) hand.

This one is looking down at his feet...they are so chubby! Just like his mom. :)

Now we are looking at the bottom of his feet. All 10 toes are there.

This one is my favorite! Another profile picture! I love his nose! I hope it turns out like Warren's...

For the finale...a video watching him from the top.

We can't wait to finally meet the little squirt that keeps playing soccer and doing the jiggy in my belly. He also loves to dance to music...when we have any music going he kicks around. Obviously getting the dance moves from me. ;)

Camping 101

May 9-11, 2008

I have never been camping and my darling husband decided to take me on my first trip...all while carrying his first child. We headed out to the Guadalupe River State Park on a Friday afternoon and Jenn and Ryan met us that night with Layne and Chris the following Saturday morning.

Our tent that Warren set up with a teeny tiny bit of my help.

Here is our friend the armadillo...

And the centipede...

Me taking a break after Warren setup the tent...

That night Jen and Ryan showed up and we helped them setup. The next morning Warren caught me not being such a happy camper because of the heat...like I told him "You try carrying another human body weight wth an already warm natured person!" I also wasn't very thrilled having a cricket keep me up all night.

Even Sarge got a a fan!!! Did my sweet, thoughtful husband get me one? Nooooo, fans are for sissies he says...he had a lesson learned.

When Layne and Chris made it in we headed out to the river...whew!

What an amazing invention God made...a cold river! Lets just say it saved Warren from taking me to a hotel. :)

That night we headed back for some good food!!!

Our head chef, Jenn

Layne and I enjoying the grub!

Layne and Chris doing there thing...looking so darn cute!

Not sure what Ryan is doing...just being Ryan I guess.

Overall we had a great weekend. We got to spend time together in the great outdoors...the big question now is, would I do it again??? Only with a fan and a thicker air mattress. Warren got to experience sleeping on the ground since I was too hot to share the space. It ended up cooling off Saturday night...of course!
