15 Weeks

I am a few days shy of 16 weeks and so far things are going great. We had our 16 week appointment on Monday and the heartbeat was strong at 150 beats per minute – slower than last visit but normal as the baby continues to grow.

My bump is getting bigger and bigger each day. I have lost all hope of fitting into my normal clothes and am fully committed to my new maternity jeans and tops.

In less than 10 days we have our big appointment to find out the sex of Baby Curtis. Ryal is 50/50, but I think it is a girl. We shall see. Either way we are extremely excited about moving forward with names, wall colors, and more baby stuff.

Last weekend my wonderful parents came for a visit! We had such a great time working on the nursery. Ryal and Dad installed a ceiling fan in the baby's room, while mom and I added shelving to the closet. The biggest surprise came when they snuck in a beautiful new rocker and footstool to the nursery. Baby Curtis is already so spoiled. Thanks again mom and dad! We love you!

This weekend Ryal is playing in a softball tournament and I am getting some things done around the house – including watching my favorite 1 year old Owen. We have a busy day planned on Sat including going to Costco, hitting up the inside playground at the mall and hopefully a big nap!

I am also getting my hair cut on Sat – finally! It has been a long time coming.

All in all things are fantastic and Ryal and I are more excited than ever!

Sorry no pics this week. Hope to have some next week.
