For my wonderful husband

My husband wanted pictures of me and this is the fast and easy way to do it.
I know that are not the best but had to take them myself. But here are a few
of me at 21 weeks and 2 days.
Baby news: just have my next ultrasound on the 5th and then my 24 week
appointment on the 14th. All is going well that I know of. Just can't wait to
know what we are having.

So today was our wards Young Women program. And since I am now in Young Women I got to sit up there with them, thankfully all I had to do was help sing the songs. The girls did a wonderful job and it was a great program. Now I just get to have a very quiet afternoon at home alone. Well I don't know if it will be quiet all that much. This weekend is the air show and so I have been getting to hear the Blue Angels fly over my house for the last few days. But its ok because it just reminds me of home in NV. Well I hope you all have a wonderful sunday. And honey I love you, can't wait to have you home in a few days.

Halloween is coming!

So with Gabe gone I have a lot of time on my hands. And not a lot of things to do. And so I put up Halloween the other night, not a lot but its something. It took me two hours to do it though. I know it doesn't look like it should have taken that long but it did. I did mind though because what else did I have to do. Plus I remember when I was a kid I loved to see the houses done up, so you can say I did it for the kids! Anyway, hope you like it and you all are having a good weekend.

Two weeks without Gabe:(

Gabe left this morning for two weeks on the ship. Sometimes I really hate the navy! But anyway, I just hope he is home for Halloween, I don't want to pass out candy by myself. And we have never had a Halloween together, always been on the ship. We did get our pumpkin done already, did it for family home evening. It was fun. I don't think Gabe has done one since before his mission. Here's our pumpkin!





Baby news: we have our next appointment (2nd ultrasound) on Nov 5th. So hope and pray it shows its little self to us. If you have any ideas about getting the baby to move for it, I am more then willing to try. Other then that all is going good. I feel the baby more and more, mainly in the afternoons. I love to feel it! Anyway, here is a picture of my belly. (Gabe took it and he only takes it of my belly, so sorry no head)

Still at 50/50

So yeah it didn't want to let us see anything. But everything looked good. They want to see me back in 4 weeks for a another ultrasound. Couldn't see the kidneys very well and the cord was up around the head so they want to check on that again. The doc is not worried about the cord or anything so as of right now all is well and still don't know what it is.

Change in Plans

Yesterday we found out that Gabe now has to leave the day we are to go in for the big ultrasound. This didn't make me happy at all! So this morning we called to see about getting our appointment moved to the day before or something, but didn't get anyone. Thankfully just before Gabe left for work this afternoon (side note: Gabe is now working nights, good and bad at times), they called us back and the only thing they had open is tomorrow. This will put me at 18 weeks and 6 days, so hope they can see all they need to and that we can find out the sex. I really don't want to have to go back in, plus I really want Gabe to be there when we find out the sex of the baby. Besides that little change everything seems to be doing fine. I have started to feel the baby move. Not very much but thats ok with me. It just makes me happy to actually feel something in the some moments I do. I do feel bad for Gabe though because every time I say that it is kicking me he puts his hand on me and wants so much to feel something. I just have to tell him he will soon. Oh and monday we got the crib and changing table. That makes me happy and feel better that we have something for the baby finally. Well thats about it for now, just everyone hope they can see everything tomorrow.
