IT'S A BOY!!!

That's right!!! I'm going to have a son soon!! Words cannot describe how happy I am!! I cried when she said those magical words "see the penis" hahaha. I haven't updated this thing in awhile so I figured now is the best time to do it!

So Monday, I went for my level 2 appointment. It was REALLY long which was good for the most part. The first like 15 minutes I couldn't see anything because the screen was towards the technician so I was bored and annoyed at the same time, then she saw that Baby Haas was sucking his thumb, not just putting his hands in front of his face and she thought it was funny so she put the screen towards me. It was amazing to see him suckling his thumb and see how everything works in his body! It makes it a little more real that he's a human being. So weird!! Apparently I have placenta anterior which just means that my placenta is in the front of my belly instead of behind the baby. So he's facing my stomach instead of my spine. The thing that sucks about this, is this is the reason why I haven't really felt "flutters". I've felt vibrations and it feels like there's an alien inside my belly, but no butterfly kisses as people have described or popcorn popping. I also don't feel him as much as most people do. It may take awhile before I can feel him outside of my belly too. I hope not too long! I can't wait to feel real kicks and for Rick to be able to actually feel him. It might make it more real for him too. He's really excited we're having a boy.. I don't think as excited as I am though. He's really difficult when it comes to coming up with names so I'm sure as the time goes by, he'll pick like 3 names and we'll name the baby when we meet him. I just hope we can agree on 3 names!!! He's sooo difficult

Well anyway, here's 3 sono pics from Monday. She didn't give me a wee wee shot, but these pics are pretty awesome.

Here's my little man sucking his thumb


Look at those guns! my son has huge arms haha


God I hope that's not his real nose and it's just a shadow!!


Let's see.. is there any other news? Rick and I went to Disney last week. It was a great vacation. We got moved into really good rooms because I'm pregnant. I definitely recommend going when you're pregnant and telling people haha. You get some freebies which is awesome! I was able to ride almost everything except for some rollercoasters but that's not big deal! Here are 2 pics from Magic Kingdom





The only other news is that we started our registries at both Buy Buy Baby & Babies R Us. We have to go to Buy Buy Baby and actually update it. I had done it without Rick and then deleted alot of items so he can feel a part of the experience. We registered together at Babies R Us though. He's so stupid, he thinks that we don't need a bunch of stuff we do (like a highchair!!!) because we won't need it for awhile (you need that at like 6 months!) he's really difficult to register with but I'll get through it. If not, I'll just add things on my own haha.

We're looking on Sunday at houses to buy and then we're moving alot of stuff from the house to a storage space. We're hoping to put the house up in about 3 weeks. It's gonna be difficult but I guess it's really gonna be them relying on me then since I'm home all day. I just don't wanna deal with moving their stuff and putting it in boxes. That's not my place to do that. I can't decide what to keep and what to toss! We found a beautiful house in Bayville but now Ann doesn't like that it's on a main road but it's across the street from the beach!! There's a deck that wraps around to half the front and I could sit up there and watch the bay if I wanted to! I really fell in love with the house but we have to look at other houses too. We're hoping to be out in like 3-4 months but who the hell knows when this house will sell! I know the market is down but Ann is willing to sell the house for less than it's worth just to get out of the house. We really need to be in our own place and I really wanna have the house painted and the nursery done before he arrives! Plus if we're there for the nice weather, we can use the beach and enjoy the beautiful weather. Well anyway I'm gonna go start cleaning and possibly walk Jameson! It's actually nice weather today. It's been a LOOOOONG time since then!

Oh, tomorrow I have a doctor's appointment. We'll see how my weight is. When I came home from Disney, I had lost 2 pounds so I was under my pre pregnancy weight! I'm hoping I'm at my pre pregnancy weight right now. I don't wanna gain much and I shouldn't since I am overweight. I guess I'll update this tomorrow or sometime soon!! Be safe everyone

It's been awhile

since I posted. Not much baby news. I can't find out the sex of the baby until we come back from Florida (february 1st) so that's a little frustrating/upsetting. I'm getting a huge discount because of the cast holiday deal and I can't even buy clothes or whatever for this baby. i hate yellows! My friend works in a hospital and she said she would do a sonogram before we leave but I gotta see if Rick can come with me because he'd KILL me if I found out and he wasn't there. He's cute like that. Well on the flip side, doctors appointment went well at 13 weeks. heartbeat sounded great. My dr couldn't find it at first but then he did.

This little bugger moves around so much! I heard some people feel the baby kick around 15 weeks! I really hope that's the case for me. I'm really excited to get on with this pregnancy and actually feel pregnant! I'm starting to get a little bump but I feel it just looks fat :-/ In the next few weeks I should really start to grow which should be awesome for Disney! I told Rick that I want a ton of photopass pictures of me preggers. How often do you get a shot of you pregnant in front of the castle or spaceship earth?? unless you live there of course. Right about now, I'm a little grateful I don't live in Florida!! I know that you swell like a balloon when you're pregnant and it's pretty much always warm/hot there! Plus I'm due in July. oh god forget about it! you'd probably have to carry me out of the apartment to go to the hospital!

In a few weeks Rick and I will start our registries! I'm so excited about this. This is the part where you feel pregnant and get to pick everything for your little one! whether you get it or not, it's a great guide for even myself to know what we need to buy! I'm a little scared about finances especially since I got fired. When we planned getting pregnant, we were not expecting me to be jobless for over a month! We thought I'd have 2 jobs!! My debt was practically paid off and now it's not looking pretty. The one credit card I paid off completely, I used most of it up again. stupid christmas/food! I know we'll do fine though because Rick's making good money which I'm really happy about. The best part, he doesn't work hard for it!! I mean he has long days with that overtime, but he says he basically does nothing!! He loves his job and I couldn't be any happier!!

Well I need to take the dogs out. They really test my patience every day. Most of the time I lose it! 3 crazy obnoxious dogs really stress me out. And it sucks that the weather is cold and bad because I really loved taking Jameson & O'Malley out for long walks (usually 5 miles a day) It calmed Jameson down alot and I had bonding time with O'Malley.. my O'Puppy.. my O'Baby... my O'SMELLY!!!! god i love that little dog. anyway, I swear, I'm gonna start going to the gym again. I was really sick (like cold sick) and am starting to get over it so maybe I'll go back this week. And once the weather gets good again, I'm definitely taking all 3 of these dogs out. Finnegan got chunky and it really bothers me. It was my fault! I never walked him.. Although Rick's dad always gives him treats even though we tell him not to! That little boy will be fit and so will I before the baby comes! Ok now I really need to walk them. They're all fighting! uggh.
