PINK....or.....BLUE???

Pink of blue...do you wish you knew?! Well...we do have some news for you. We are having a.....surprise :) We have decided NOT to find out what we are having. We just got back from our ultrasound and everything looked good. We could see all the little bones, organs, parts of the brain, heart beating strong etc... It was pretty amazing to see how much he/she has grown since we last got to see him/her 12 weeks ago!
The heart rate was at 141...and my due date was showing a few days earlier...April 6. We can't wait to meet this little one! I will post some of my ultrasound pictures soon.

Quote of the day...

So...I was complaining how my lower "abs" hurt like i did a bunch of sit ups...and i of course know it's my stomach stretching it way out. So... Jake keeps telling me to put lotion on my stomach :) haha I finally asked him if he was worried about me getting stretch marks or something and he laughs and said, "Honey 90% of people probably get them...and if you do I will still love you."
It's a good thing he told me that because i wasn't sure :)

Suggestions Please...

Ok....so I thought i should at least look at when they are having the good ol' pregnancy classes at the hospital. I noticed they have two options. I can't remember what some of you did...so please let me know what you liked best!! :)

Option A: You can go for 1 day....8-5 and have it over with.

Option B: You can go 1 night a week for 5 weeks.

Jake isn't going to like either option so....:) Let me know what you liked best.

Baby is growing...

I had another doctors appt today. (18 1/2 weeks) There really is no exciting news to share...except that everything "looks"/sounds great. The heart rate decreased this time again (she didn't tell me the heart rate though.) She predicts a boy based on the "old wives tale" of heart rate=gender. Honestly, would the Wiersema boys produce anything BUT boys....hopefully someday mine does haha :) I always find it so funny how excited my doctor acts when she measures the growth of my uterus. She always has this huge smile and is like "it's all the way up to here!" haha...i guess she is just happy to see that the baby is actually growing inside this belly of mine.
We have our ultrasound in 2 weeks....you'll have to check back to see what we are having... :)
