It's a...

GOOD QUESTION! Lol. We went today to find out what we are having. We got good pictures of the baby but unfortunately our little one is a bit shy. Seriously, when the lady went to check the sex the baby's legs were crossed. Then, the baby opened up its legs but the umbilical cord was in between the legs so she STILL couldn't tell. So she asked me to walk around and try to get the baby to move and that didn't work After trying for a good 5 minutes to find out what sex the baby is the lady finally said that we wouldn't find out today. Needless to say, we are extremely disappointed but we are happy to know that our baby is alive and healthy. This was Ralph's first experience at the doctor's office for a baby appointment and it was so fun to watch the joy on his face as he saw his little one for the first time! I was so caught up between watching Ralph and the monitor that I didn't know which one to look at! Anyways, my insurance is over tomorrow from the school so I will be trying to get onto the state of Oregon's health plan which will probably take anywhere from a month to a month and a half. During this time, PLEASE pray for me and baby that we will be ok without insurance for a small while. I would greatly appreciate it. Anyways, thanks for reading! :)

P.S. I graduate tomorrow!! :) :)

Anticipation

This waiting stuff is no fun. I really, REALLY hate waiting. It is killing me knowing that I can know what my little baby is and I have to wait until tomorrow to find out. I am so EXCITED to find out. The very first thing I'm gonna do is go out and buy something for this baby cause I have been wanting to forever... Lol. I'll let you know what the baby is! :)

Update

So I went to the doctor two weeks ago and everything was fine except that I LOST 3 pounds. I was like, "Ok. No big deal." Well the doctor didn't notice the weight loss until after my appointment and as I'm leaving she starts freaking out at me and telling me that she needs to see me in two more weeks to make sure everything is fine and that I need to eat more and gain weight. I got this HUGE lecture from her. Well, hello, I'm gonna say it. I weigh 286 pounds (yeah. I know. It's a lot)! How the heck is a little weight loss gonna hurt me or my baby?! It doesn't mean anything to me. If I'm not eating enough my baby can just feed off of me. Lol. There is a whole one year food supply on me. Anyways, that was that appointment.

Yesterday I had my follow up appointment and I was so worried that I had gained too much weight this time because I had eaten 3 Thanksgivings and had lots of fast food. Fortunately I only gained one pound. So that is good. I also got to hear the baby's heart beat for the first time!! It was SO exciting. The heartbeat was so fast. It amazed me. I can not wait to see another ultrasound of our baby. We are scheduled for our BIG ultrasound on Dec. 17th. This is the one where they will hopefully tell us the sex of the baby. That is assuming the baby is co-operating.

On another note, I am GRADUATING on Dec. 18th!! I am so stinking excited! My mom will be here for the graduation and the ultrasound so that is cool too. I can't wait to see my mommy! I have never wanted my mom around more than I've been wanting her around since I've become pregnant.

Also, Ralph and I will be moving to Oregon on Dec. 21st. We don't know if this will be a permanent move or what will become of it but it is happening. Please don't ask why. I don't feel like posting the super long super sad story on here. Anyways, that is all for now! Mahalo for reading! :)
