I'm seeing a lot of BLUE in the future!!!



Hopefully you can tell by the title and the picture, but just in case you can't...we're having a boy! I had a friend who got me in for an ultrasound early, and so we actually found out a few weeks ago that it's a HE. We are both very excited. I'm a little scared, since I don't have an older brother, and I really don't know how to teach him to be a good big brother, but I guess I will figure it out as I go. Everything was perfect and he was very healthy and strong. According to the ultrasound he is measuring 1 week ahead actually. But I have another ultrasound through my Dr.'s office a week from Tuesday, and I'm hoping that they'll either confirm that I am a week ahead, and officially move my due date up, or leave it the same. We have not decided on a name yet, boys names are something we have never been able to agree on unfortunately. But I'm sure by the time August rolls around we should have it narrowed down!! It was really funny because while my friend was doing the ultrasound Creighton all of a sudden said, "Oh, it's a boy!" Right when the technician found it. So it was pretty obvious that we were having a boy. He wasn't hiding anything from us.
I actually started feeling him kicking last Sunday, and now he is moving around more and more. Creighton keeps asking how I know for sure that it's him kicking, or hitting me some how. And I tell him that the only thing in that area of my abdomen is my uterus and the baby. Plus I've never felt anything like it before. Maybe when he feels it for himself, he'll finally start to believe me :)
I hope my little boy never feels humiliated that I posted a picture of him in all his glory on the internet for everyone to see!! We are just so excited to have him and wanted you all to see too!

7 Interesting things about me tag...

So my friend tagged me the other day and I decided, finally, that I should do it. Now, I don't know if theses will be considered interesting, but they might be unknown to most people. I hope you enjoy!

1. I enjoy art a lot. My favorite area is sketching. I love the black and white, and all the shadows. I even drew a picture of my nephew and gave it to my sister-in-law for Christmas a couple of years ago--hope she liked it :)

2. I was one of the valedictorians of my high school class.

3. I lived in the same city my whole life, until I moved to Utah to go to school. In fact all of my brothers and sister have had the same wonderful elementary school teacher--Ms. Kramer!!

4. I got to go on an African safari during my junior year of high school.

5. I went to Forks and La Push, Washington last summer (the setting for the best selling Twilight series).

6. I am deathly afraid of needles, and most often pass out when I get shots.

7. I am not a big chocolate fan, and would prefer some sort of sour candy any day :)

Those were the most interesting/unknown facts about me that I could come up with. Thanks for reading.

PS: We are going to be putting up a new baby post soon, so keep checking back.
