20 Week Ultrasound/Brother

Face

Feet(Side By Side)

Legs and boy parts

We had our 20 week ultrasound on Wednesday. It is crazy to think that we are half way through, I thought the time would go by slow but it's been so quick! Conner is still a boy and everything looks great! He doesn't appear to have any signs of a cleft lip or down syndrome which was a relief to us. I have my 20 week appointment with my doctor next week and I'm hoping that we will find out the measurements of Conner then. The second picture is of Conner's feet and I'm in love with it! I can't wait to physically count those 10 toes and tickle and wiggle them!

In other news...my brother is coming home from his mission in just 1 week! I am so excited and can't wait for him to be home. I'm sure that I will take tons of pictures when he comes home,
so watch for those!

Random Thought

I am totally in love with little boys with spiky hair and hope that Conner will have hair to spike!

Happy Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday April!

More Baby News

I found out yesterday that Chris' little sister is pregnant and due in December! That means that 3 out of the 4 Gillespie woman are pregnant, crazy!

Pregnancy Humor

I can't believe that I'm going to post this, but here it goes...I had dinner with some friends last night and drank a lot of water during dinner. I thought about going to the bathroom but knew I could make it home. Well I got to the light just before my house, sneezed and totally wet my pants! Please tell me I'm not the only one that this has happened too?

17 Week Photo

Here I am at week 17!
I feel huge already even though "the bump" is just starting to stick out. My 20 week ultrasound is set for April 29th and I'm excited to see the measurements of Conner. Chris leaves town tomorrow and will probably miss the appointment but
we already know it's a boy so he's not too heart broken!
P.S. I am SOOOOO sick of bangs and can't wait for them to grow into my hair!

And You Must Wear Stretchy Pants

I have reached the point in my pregnancy where my regular pants are not fitting anymore. For the past couple of weeks they have fit snuggly and if I eat or towards the end of the day my button needs to be undone. I don't know what happened this past week, but I'm bustin out of my pants! I know that Target sells The Belly Band so I'm probably going to get that in the next couple of days. I'm dreading buying the pants with the stretchy panel in them so the longer I can go without them the better!

Another Baby

Chris' older sister Kim told us last week that she is expecting her second child! She is due November 8th! Maddy is very excited that she will get to be a big sister and we are excited for their family!

I had another appointment yesterday. I got to hear the heart beat which still amazes me every time I hear it! He called me a skinny minny but I have gained 2 pounds (but have not hit my pre-pregnancy weight yet). My stomach measures at 17 cm which he said is good. My morning sickness is gone! I have not thrown-up in over a month now! And I have "The Big 20 Week" ultrasound on April 29th! It has amazed me how fast time has flown! I started shopping and have learned that there ARE cute boy clothes out there! And hopefully we can get started on the nursery soon!
