Wrapped around

WOW. I'm a slacker! I thought when I got pregnant I would blog every week, and have a cute belly picture. well obviously THAT's not happening. Part of the reason, Is that I feel so far from cute, that its not even funny. I thought I would be one of those cute girls that don't look pregnant until right before they have a baby. That is SO not me. I started to show really early. It also doesn't help that a certain person in my family comments on it all the time, making me feel fat, not pregnant. Its not a good time for me. Oh well, I do have a baby in there, and that's all that matters. I love our little girl so much already, I cant wait to meet her this fall! She already has Rob and I wrapped around her cute perfect little finger! This was me yesterday at 18 weeks, 5 days

We had our anatomy ultrasound yesterday, and everything is looking perfect with our little girl. They couldn't get a great shot to confirm that she is a girl, but the tech was pretty sure. As of right now, I am 18 weeks 6 days, however she is measuring 19 weeks and 3 days. Its not much of a difference, and the Doctor wont change my due date or anything, but its a fun little thing to know. We also found out that she is approximately 10 OZ right now. I have felt her move maybe a handful of times, but not a whole lot. She is more active when I drink orange juice (which I do everyday with an iron supplement, as I am anemic.) We also found out that Voldermort is now less than 2 CM, and they are officially not worried about it anymore. That is such a relief to me! We also found out that my Placenta is in front (it is normally in the back) this is not a problem, they just say that it may be harder for me to feel her move, as the placenta is a sort of cushion or pillow. I will upload the pictures tomorrow, I left them at home. On April 17th, My sister welcomed her baby girl Kamden into this world. She is super cute, and we all just love her! When she was a day old, Rob and I went to the hospital to see her, and it was really fun to see Rob hold her, It made me even more excited for the delivery of our baby!

Rob and I have bought a few things for our little girl, and my mom and sister have gotten us a few things. My mom got baby girl Carter and baby Kamden the same BYU hat. I LOVE IT!

Aunty Britt got baby Carter her first pair of shoes

Rob and I have bought the next 2 outfits. The onzie outfit we bought the day after we found out we were having a girl.

My sister Brittany and I have been sewing a lot the past week or so. It's been a lot of fun learning how to make things, We have made Mindi a receiving blanket, and a carseat cover. I also made her a wipe case, but forgot to take a picture. I made Brittany's friend a receiving blanket last night, and Brittany made me one (why we didnt switch blankets, I don't know- anyway) I did it all by myself. I pinned and sewed it all. Now all I have to do to it is do the decorative stitch around it- Maybe tonight. The pictures are of Baby Kamden's car seat cover and receiving blanket.

The last are a few pictures of Rob. We live with my sister Brittany, and her 3 kids, and her husband. Chloe is a little princess, and she LOVES Rob. She always tries to go to work with him, or she will wait up until he comes home around 10:30 PM. Rob watched the kids for about 2 hours last week, and when Chloe found out he was watching her, she said she was gonna have Rob push her on the swing. Rob was amazed at her memory since it was a few days before that Rob had mentioned pushing her on the swing. As I was sitting at work, my sister sent me the following picture. Im Pretty sure that Rob is wrapped around her finger too!.

Last night, while Britt and I were finishing up our blankets, Rob came up to have some cookies I made (and Burnt- Which Rob LOVES burnt cookies) He got so fascinated with the sewing machine, and kept asking how it works. He wanted to touch EVERY button on both machines. He had Brittany and I laughing so hard. I love him so much!

I guess the only other thing I have to report is that Rob's work schedule changes next weekend. He was working 2PM-10Pm with Wednesdays and Thursdays off. He will now be working 6PM-6AM, and be on a rotating shift (so like 4 days on, 3 days off) I'm not too happy with him working graveyards, since I don't sleep well with him gone, but it will allow us to see each other more, so I cant complain too much. With the change in his shift, it also allows us to travel and go to a baseball game this summer, so in a few weeks we will be packing our bags and heading to Washington DC. I am excited, Rob has been there before, so he is not as excited as I am, but he is still excited. It will be our last trip together before the baby comes. (I told Rob I was sending him to LA for his birthday in August to go to a dodger game- so he will get to go to 2 games this summer) Im super excited for our trip! I guess that is all, sorry for the long post, and thanks for reading if you stuck around to finish it! Have a wonderful day!!
