Baby Bump


I wanted to post a picture that shows my belly bump! I am one of those crazy pregnant women that started showing at 3 months and I haven't stopped growing yet! I get bigger everyday...well at least I think that I do.
Baby Hurdle still doesn't have a name, but we are working hard to get him one. Bubba and I have been combing the Internet and every baby name book imaginable looking for the perfect fit. I will let you know as soon as we find one that suits our little man.
We are also diligently working on the nursery. We would love to do a dinosaur theme, but are having so much trouble finding things to match! Momma is already picking out colors and getting things ready to install a chair rail (she has become so handy these days), so I guess we have made some progress. I will post pics along the way so that you can see the progress, once there is some!
Well that's all for now!

It's a BOY!

Bubba, momma, and I went to the doctor on Wednesday to find out the sex of baby Hurdle. We were all so excited to see that tiny baby Hurdle is a boy! At this point, he is 1 pound 7 ounces. I didn't believe the nurse when she told me that because when he kicks so hard! She said the he looked good and that he is one of the more active babies she has seen. No wonder I haven't been sleeping well. She also said that my measurements show me at 23 week, not 21. My doctor told me that he would check everything and let me know at my next appointment. So my original due date, May 15, might be changing soon. I will let everyone know as soon as I find out myself.

I am glad that our dream of having a little boy is coming true. I can't wait to meet our son. it sounds so funny saying that, but I am so excited! Momma cried of course and about jumped through the roof when we had confirmation of the sex. Bubba thought that the ultrasound was one of the neatest things he had ever seen. He would say, "Look at him moving around babe. This is so cool. There he goes again!" It was so cute. For me, it caused a whole new set of feelings about being pregnant. It brought everything that has been happening to me into reality. It all seems so real now and I love being able to say he or my son. I am already a proud mom and have been showing my pictures to everyone.
