First Appointment

Well I had my first doctor's appointment this week here in Idaho! John came with me which was nice! :) All of the staff seemed really nice and they all knew a lot. They were so helpful to my questions about paper work, the baby, or just anything!

We were hoping we would get to find out this week if our baby is a boy or girl, but it turns out we'll have to wait and see next month. We did get to hear the baby's heart beat though which was amazing! Our doctor says he thinks it's a girl, but that's just a guess. He said he's 51% accurate. Haha! Well, we'll find out soon! :)

Also, I thought it was funny that for the first time when I stepped on a scale at the doctor's office I was expecting it to be higher and was glad when it was! Haha! Well, everything is going perfectly for our little one as far as we can tell. The only thing is I'm starting to get a little jealous of how warm the baby must be! And I'm out here in the snow! Brrrr! Oh well. Anything for baby, right? :)

Other than that everything has been going well. John and I are doing great here in Idaho. It snowed on Thursday which was not fun, but I'll either get used to it or just be burning up soon from the pregnancy! It's nice to have John with me! He's always so kind letting me warm up my cold hands in his on our way to school every morning! Still love him like crazy!! :)

Baby!!!

John and I will be expecting our first child on March 26, 2013! That's so exciting and just amazing! We're so excited and so are both of our families! Every time we call someone from either side of the family, the first thing they ask is how big I'm getting! Haha! They're all a little disappointed when we tell them that I'm not showing much yet. The funny thing is that I'm showing a little, but it's so small that instead of looking pregnant, I think I just look a tiny bit chubby! (...awkward...haha!) Well, hopefully by Christmas I'll be big enough to appease our families! I would say Thanksgiving, but that might still be a little too soon! :)

Also, I get an update every week telling me how big the baby is now! The funny thing is it's always compared to a different fruit or vegetable! Being from California and coming to Utah and Idaho, I have no idea what the normal size of a lemon or peach is anymore, so it's not as helpful as it should be. It's still fun to hear about though! :)

Still can't wait to find out if it's a boy or girl! But that still won't come for another month or so.
