A bun in the oven!

Well, I guess it's about time to spread the word...We're Expecting! As of today I am 18 weeks or 4.5 months along. We were hoping to find out the gender today but we had to make another appointment for the "real" ultrasound. We did get to hear the heart beat though, and we loved it! The Dr. was really surprised at how much the baby was moving around "it's a very active baby, in fact, it won't hold still" she said. I really haven't felt much movement yet or at least I don't think I have, it's kind of hard to tell what's what! I can tell you that I am running out of pants that fit!

As for the "Mother's or Father's instinct" about the gender we've flipped back and forth so tonight we decided to flip a coin, best out of 5, and the winner is... girl. We can't wait to see if this method hold! If this works we may market the theory.

Here's our 12.5 week ultrasound. I wish we had more prints because the baby was moving so much even back then. It would reach down for it's toes, then up to it's head. It would roll over and show it's spine, just so cute play'n around in there!
