Baby Nikolas.

I think I have my little boy figured out. Number one, he hates when I lay on my right side. Number two, water with lemon gets him moving like crazy and number three, he starts his day and wakes up right when I decide to get some shut eye.
Feeling him move is the most amazing and weird feeling in the world. I used to worry that he wasn't moving enough but that problem has most definitely fixed itself. He's always moving! Sometimes it even catches me off guard and scares the crap out of me. Like I'll just be sitting there and all of a sudden he'll kick and totally gets me by surprise. His daddy has also been able to feel him moving. Just last night Nikolas had been really still and then I had his daddy put my hand on my belly where he was and he started moving like crazy. I also think he moves a lot when he hears his daddy's voice. I can barely even wait to see him. I imagine what he looks like every single day. I think about holding him and kissing his little face. Ahhhh, I can't wait!
December 30th I'm going to have a 3D/4D ultrasound and I'm very excited about it. I can bring up to 8 people with me and they'll make a DVD of the session and a whole bunch of other awesome things.
I also have the baby shower date set which will be February 5th although I haven't mentioned it to anyone yet besides my husband and aunt of course because she will be throwing it.
I already have my registry completely done and I feel like I should have waited or like I'm doing everything too quickly. I don't know, I guess it's just because the baby shower is still some time away.
Even though it feels like time is going by slow at the same time it's going too quickly. I'm already almost 22 weeks! 18 weeks to go.

-Now I shall go try to take a little nap since my boy seems to have settled down a bit. Until next time!

It's a Boy!

I'm pleased to announce that at 8:25 am, I found out I was carrying a little dude!
I have no words to explain how ridiculously excited I am, this is so awesome. I know it might be a little early but the registry is done at Babys R Us already. I can't wait for my baby shower. I can't wait to hold little Nikolas. He was such a kicker this morning. Wouldn't stay still for more then a second but he most definitely wasn't shy! He has his little legs open so visibility was easy. He looks so different from his last ultrasound. He actually looks like a baby! Cute little baby face and chubby belly.
I am so anxious for the next few weeks to fly by. I wish I could just fast forward. I also wish I just won the lottery so I could run out and buy a million things. AHHH.
Overall today was awesome. It's really great to know what you are carrying so you can stop referring your  little baby to 'it'. Now I can rub my belly proudly and call him by his name, Jellyfish...er... I mean Nikolas.

-The lack of posts is totally due to the lack of news or anything to write about. I got over my cold after a WEEK! Can you believe it? A whole miserable week. I have come to the conclusion that I will probably only post once a week or whenever news arise. So check back once a week!

Jinx, you owe me a soda.

So I did jinx myself. I've spent the past four days coughing up a lung. My body has been aching and the sinus headaches continuous. On the bright side, my throat doesn't hurt as bad as it did since yesterday. Still a little sore, but overall a little better. I also had a doctors appointment yesterday where my doctor decided he wanted to officially figure out how far along I was because everyone was telling him something different. The nurses were going by my last period which is totally irregular and made my due date a ridiculous February something. I was going by my free ultrasound I had gotten where they told me I was due April 8th. But my good doctor wanted a for sure type of answer so he did a quick ultrasound and measured my little baby at 17 weeks and 4 days. Talk about exciting!
Which means... drum rolls please!
I GET TO FIND OUT THE SEX OF MY BABY NEXT WEEK!
Ahhhhhhhhhhh! I'm so excited. It's all I think about. I wish the 27th would just get here already. I'm so anxious, nervous, happy and a million other things. I'm crossing my fingers that the week just flies by. When the 27th comes it's seriously going to be like my birthday, Christmas and wedding day combined.
I can start buying things accordingly! I can start the nursery! I can do anything!
Best of all I can start calling my baby by it's name and not he/she (which changes every other day) or jellyfish. Which is adorable yes, but being able to call my little baby by it's name will be so much more special.

-And now I'm off to do the happy dance until next Wednesday. I can barely wait!
