Introducing Benjamin Lee

I love this picture from our ultrasound on Monday. As you can see from the title of this post, we are going to name him Benjamin Lee, but we will call him Ben for short. Lee is Shawn and his dad's middle name. I couldn't believe how well we could see Ben this time. He is measuring about 9 ounces. I go back in a couple weeks for my OB appointment, and they will do another ultrasound because she said his heart wasn't quite big enough for the measurements she needed. A special thanksgiving treat was the first little kicks I felt from Baby Ben on Thursday. We have so much to be thankful for this year!

It's a........

BOY!!!!!!!

Crib

Our baby now has a place to sleep!!! I ordered the crib a couple weeks ago and it was delivered today. I love it, but it looks huge in the nursery. Oh well, I think it will turn out great. The changing table should be delivered in a few weeks. On Monday we find out what we are having. I can't believe how many votes we have received for a girl. We can't wait to find out.

Doctor's Appointment

Today I had my 16 week doctor's appointment. My doctor couldn't find the heart beat with the doppler, so he had to do an ultrasound. It turns out the placenta was in the way. I was relieved to see the baby's legs kicking. The placenta will probably keep me from feeling the baby move for a while, so I am kind of sad about that. But, my next appointment is November 24th. We will get to find out if it is a boy or a girl!!! We are so excited and can't wait to find out. I have a poll set up on the right to vote if you think we are having a boy or a girl.
