32 Weeks!

Not a lot has been going on the last couple of weeks. Everything is pretty calm, which is a good thing! We just had our third NST and his heart is still looking great. He is so active. Last week the nurse left the room and came back to ask what all the racket was because he was SO active! He's such a mover and a shaker. All three times he has had the hiccups which I think is so cute. 

We signed up for a tour of Winnie Palmer, the hospital we will be delivering at. We are also taking a basic infant care class in September. Hopefully Ricky learns a thing or two! I obviously already know everything ;)

Yesterday was our Baby Shower!!! We had a great time and our moms did such a great job with everything. It was beautiful and we are feeling so blessed to have all these people in our lives that love and support us. We only need some small things still and I can't wait to go shopping and get them! I have been so good at not shopping too much. I went a little nuts after the shower. I washed all of his clothes, blankets, bath stuff and his bedding. His room is completely set up with everything we have. It looks so good I'm so happy with the theme we picked out. 

My belly is now measuring 32cm at 32 weeks! That means I'm finally on the right schedule and not measuring ahead anymore. The doctor said last week that we'll still do another ultrasound at 37 weeks to check his weight. I'm just glad I'm not measuring so far ahead now. 

3D/4D Ultrasound!!!! AMAZING!!

Thinking real hard

Yawning!

Kissy face

Size pic. He has Ricky's features for sure.

These are some of the pictures from the ultrasound today. I was so worried that I would be disappointed because I've heard stories about the pics not turning out well, or the baby not being in the right position. But our tech was AWESOME! She was so sweet and showed me where everything was, and what everything was. She spent so much time trying to get the perfect angle of his precious face. And she really did an awesome job! I think he's the most beautiful baby boy I've ever seen.

Baby feet!

29 Weeks!

I can NOT believe I'm at 29 weeks. It still feels so far away but it's so close! I'm feeling really good about my belly lately... I was having a hard time at first but now that it's extremely obvious that I'm prego, and not chubby,  I'm feeling great. I miss chocolate though! I'm making vanilla brownies as we speak :)

This week I started weekly NST(non stress tests) at the doctor. We are doing this instead of the doppler because it has a more accurate reading of his heart. Doctor said I passed! All they are looking for is accelerations in his heart rate. I was supposed to click the button every time he moved and that is supposed to make his heart rate increase, which it did. I love it because I can hear him move around in there too. I feel him move constantly but it's different getting to hear it. Love it.

I feel so lucky with this pregnancy. I hope every pregnancy I have is like this! I LOVE being pregnant! Especially now that Trip is responding to my touch. When I wake up in the morning the first thing I do is place my hand where he's always moving and immediately I feel him. It's a great reassurance and helps me to wake up happy every day, no matter how tired I am.

Ricky felt him move the other day. It wasn't a kick it was an actual movement and he got so excited! It is such a different feeling than a kick. I woke up one day to him having the hiccups which I thought was adorable. 

We are having a 3d ultrasound done on Monday and I'm so anxious for it! I can't believe I'm going to get to see his little face!! I'll post the best pictures on Monday so be on the lookout :)

Only 2 1/2 weeks left til the shower! I'm so excited to see everyone and celebrate Trip.
