Painting the Nursery
Over spring break, Rob's parents came to visit. While they were here, we put Rob's dad to work painting the nursery. Between Rob, Uncle Ro, and Big Daddy the blue part of the wall was done in no time. By the way, the blue is Disney paint of course! Oh Bother Blue is the name.
The room before:

Uncle Ro helped too!
Uh oh, Big Daddy stepped in the paint. Then he tried to say, hey somebody has paint on his feet.
Big Daddy's shoes with paint on the bottom of them.
Almost done!
The blue is all done!
The next day, Rob and I painted the bottom half. It is a tan color, but it turned out more peachy than I expected.
Grandpa came to hang the wood in the middle.
All Done!

It's a BOY!!!
These are the sonogram pictures from January 23rd. My mom and dad came along with us even though my dad thought it would be dumb. I guess he didn't realize how much sonograms have changed since Chad and I were born! I'm a little late in adding these pictures, but better late than never right?
Belly Picture- 20 Weeks
What a difference 4 weeks makes! My mom took this picture of me before we went to the doctor on Friday. If you're wondering where all my cute maternity clothes came from, my friend Crystal Hanke let me borrow all the clothes she had grown out of! That girl can shop! She just had her little girl, Jordyn, last Sunday.

Belly pictures!
I took a picture of my belly today for the first time in a long time. I was comparing it to the last belly pic which was around 8 weeks. I'm now 16 weeks. I can't believe the difference!!!

The 1st Sonogram!
On November 20th we had our first appointment with the OB. I was pretty nervous. It was in the morning so I went straight there. Rob's school schedule is so different from mine that the appointment was in the afternoon for him. He got the rest of the day off! Lucky!
Our appointment was way out East and it took me forever to get there. When I got to the exit, it was closed! I had to call my mom and have her give me directions from the next exit, but I still got lost! I finally found the place and got there before Rob. I checked in and sat down. I nervously waited for Rob while I eyeballed all of the other pregnant ladies. After about 10 minutes Rob showed up and shortly after we called back in to the room.
The nurse that came in was the same one who I had for my annual exam, which apparently I was pregnant at, but I had no idea. She laughed and said, you must have been pregnant at the last appointment! She led us across the hall to the sonogram room which is where Dr. Lopez met us. Dr. Lopez said, "Well, that didn't take long!" I had told her at my last appointment that we had gone off the pill and were going to try to get pregnant in the summer. She had written me a prescription for prenatal vitamins so I could get my body ready. Apparently, my body was already ready!!!
Finally it was time for the sonogram. We couldn't really see anything, but it was just exciting to know that the baby was really there! I was really growing a little baby inside me. I couldn't believe it! She gave us a picture to keep.

After the sonogram I had to have blood drawn. I hate having blood drawn. They also gave us a goody bag of stuff. We got some baby magazines, coupons for baby stuff, a book about Wesley's Birthing Center, etc.
After we left we decided to go get some lunch at Jimmy's Diner. I took one picture there, and it's not that great. It's Rob picking some music for us to listen to on the little jukebox at the table. Lunch was good, but of course, I was feeling kind of sick, so I didn't eat all of mine. After we ate, Rob got to go home for the rest of the day while I had to work for the rest of the afternoon. I decided then that the rest of the appointments should be in the afternoon!
