Happenings

We were sitting in church this past Saturday night and while Noel was preaching, I felt a little poke. Then I felt two more. I leaned over to Trav and told him that the baby was moving. He asked me where and put his hand on the spot. I felt the baby again and not saying anything looked at Trav. "Was that it?" He asked me. Yup. The baby did it again and Trav smiled big and said, "That was another one, wasn't it."

And as I am typing this post, the baby is moving. I don't think she* likes the laptop sitting on top of her.

**Disclaimer**
I say a she, because for the first 4 1/2 months I called the baby a he, now I'm saying she. We haven't found out the sex of the baby yet and we won't know until sometime in September. So everyone that's wondering......we're in the same boat.

Stethoscope

I've been wanting to hear the babys heartbeat again, just to verify that I did indeed hear it the last time I went in to see the midwife.

Last night, I finally heard the baby with the help of my mom's old stethoscope from work. I say finally, because ever since easter when I brought the stethoscope home, every night I would lay on the couch and try and listen. To my dismay I would only hear the gurrgling of my own stomach, until yesterday. It was awesome. I called Trav into the living room, to make sure I wasn't hearing something else. Sure enough, Trav heard it too : ) I believe it was an answer to prayer, because I've been struggling so much with not knowing.

17wks...

Baby Registry

Hi Everyone! I'm at the 17wk point and feeling the baby every once and awhile. It's crazy to think that I'm almost half way through the pregnancy already.

I'm posting a link to our online registry for those who are interested. We'll also be registering at Toys R Us and possibly Target.
