Recap of Dr's appt. today

Well, I only gained 5 lbs since my last appointment, which was four weeks ago. Much less than my previous four week period! :) She took some measurements, and everything is right on track! I took the blood glucose test today (to test for the presence of gestational diabetes), so with any luck, that will come back negative, and that will be the last time they have to take blood. I'm a needle wimp, but have somehow become kind of accustomed to it. We see the Dr. again in three weeks, then will see her every two weeks from then until I deliver!

Thanks to my friend Jan!

She made our new blog background for us! Thanks Jan, it's perfect! :) She does all sorts of cool crafty things. Check our her website listed below!

We chose our baby bedding this weekend!

We'll use bright teals (and maybe lime greens) to accent the chocolate & white in the nursery set! We're choosing paint colors today! It's so fun to see the nursery coming together.

We're still debating on a baby name, but will probably have something set soon! Here are the names we like so far: Nicholas, James, Wesley (Wes) & Jack (Jack was my Grandfather's name, as well as my uncle's, but we already know quite a few people with little Jacks, so Jack is probably out of the running. May make a nice middle name though)!

Jason finally felt the baby move for the first time this week! I think he wishes the baby moved around a little more, but I'm sure there's plenty more of that to come!

It's a.....

....BOY!!! Jason & I are so excited to finally know that we're expecting a healthy baby boy in the Spring! Now we can start planning on how to decorate the nursery, and buying clothes! :)

I managed to gain quite a bit of weight between this appt. and my last one, so it's obvious that our baby boy likes to eat! :)
