My beautiful wedding dressMy hubby and I

Hey all!

My name is Amanda and this is my first time becoming a mommy! My husband and I were suprised on Aug 10th with a POSITIVE prego test! Our first appt is Tuesday, Aug 28th and we cannot wait. From my calculation it looks as if I will be a new mommy on April 12, 2008, but we will find out for sure after the u/s. Well on top of this big news, 3 days later I found out that my brother and his wife were prego also! She is exactly a week ahead of me! My parents found out w/in an hour that they would be grandparents TWICE! How exciting! Life is great right now and I can only see it getting better in the future. God bless!

8.23.07

Well my first appt is tuesday the 28th. Im sooo ready! Hopefully we can see the heartbeat. My boobies are killing me and I'm having to unbutton the first button of my pants to be comfortable - and the nausea is starting to really bother me! If not for these symptoms I would have no idea I was prego!. Wish me luck!

If only we knew that five months down the road, I would soon become an aunt and my brother would soon become an uncle!!! (((***from left to right: my bro Matt, My sis-in-law Hanna, me, and my hubby Keri***)))

NAMES!!!!

WE ALREADY HAVE OUR NAMES PICKED OUT! LOL!

If it's a boy: Kaden Kristopher

If its' a girl: Gracie Lynn

Tell me what ya'll think!! God Bless!

We even got to listen to the heartbeat!!! It was surreal! I also found out I'm only 6 weeks and 2 days prego which puts my due date on April 20th. My sis-in-law is only four days behind me!!!! Her due date is April 24th. How funny!~ Well we have another appt in three weeks and I can't wait. I'll be 9 weeks then! Send lots of prayers this way! ((**I wrote this after the website somehow "lost" half of my page. I was very upset b/c I worked so hard to put pics and sayings and updates up. Underneath this message is the "starting over" part of my page...**))IM SO MAD HALF MY PAGE IS GONE. NOW I DONT EVEN REMEMBER WHAT ALL I WROTE.

I HOPE EVERYONE IS TAKING THIS BETTER THAN ME AND YOUR PREGNANCIES ARE COMING ALONG NICELY~ I'LL BE 13 WEEKS FRIDAY! WHOOO HOOO! (TODAY IS THE 8TH OF OCT). GOD BLESS EVERYONE! Sept. 18, 2007 was my second u/s appt at the docs. It went wonderful! I still weighed 136pds (thank God) and the babe's heartrate was a steady 169bpm. I measured two days ahead of schedule at 9w2d so right now I'm looking at April 18th as THE DAY. I know it will change a million times though. Anyway...My mom and her best friend (whom I have known all my life) got to be there as well as hubby. Mom had never had an u/s with my brother or me so it was a real experience for her. She was sooo excited and amazed. The doc said everything looked great and scheduled my next appt for Oct 18th. They aren't suppose to be doing an u/s this time, just the doppler. Hopefully we will be able to catch a strong, steady heartbeat! I will keep ya'll updated on the progess! God bless and have a great pregnancy! The five best prenatal yoga postures • The Pringle.

Doc felt around and said everything feels good (he's the only one that can get away with saying that besides my hubby!). He then used the doppler to get a heartbeat and as soon as it hit my tummy the baby's heartbeat resounded through the room! It was a great relieving sound to a mommy's ear! We will be doing the quad screening in two weeks just to ease my mind and then on November 15th I go for my 18 week u/s!! Hopefully though I will be able to find out what we're having before then, we're going to go see a friend of the family that has been a sonographer for 20 years. Maybe October 26th? I will let ya'll know as soon as I know! I did get sick yesterday for the first time in weeks. I have no idea what came over me but right as I was leaving for work..>BLEH! Out of nowhere! Other than that I've had a few headaches and been a little tired but nothing bad at all! I'm looking forward to feeling my lil bit move around! I hope everyone is doing well and stays that way! GOD BLESS OUR PREGNANICES! 14.4 weeks pregnant! 10-23-07 15.2 weeks pregnant 10-28-07 10-30-2007 I feel fat. I eat too much - how can you not? It seems like every few minutes I'm starving!!! Oh and I don't want anything uber healthy. Right now I'm dying for Mickey D's. Like my stomach is spelling it out in growls! UGH. What happened to being nautious and not even wanting to think about food? November fifteenth is my next appt and I'm afraid of what the scales will tell. I was all happy and proud that I didnt gain during my first trimester but I have a feeling I'm about to load the pounds up. I really hope by the time I deliver they will have created a "magic pill" to get all this weight off. Wishful thinking. Oh and what sucks even more is that my prego sis in law who is ONLY four days (if that) behind me is still losing weight. grrrrrrrrrrrrr! So the family calls me "fatty" and her "skinny". Nice huh? I don't even want a camera near me. Oh and the belly pics; I only took about a dozen of them before I found one I was OKAY with. I'm ready for the "cute" part of pregnancy. I get to have one of those right??!!! Durn salt is turning me into a blimp!!! Welps, off to Mickey D's...I will gripe till the end about being a lard butt, but I will continue to make my tummy happy. LoL. You would think I would try and do something about my unhappy fatness besides continueing to feed it! November 6, 2007 16 weeks 4 days We find out Friday (the 9th of November) what we're having! A friend of ours mother in law is a sonographer and she is taking a "look see" at both me and my sis in law. But the fun part is: Me and Hubby aren't going to find out right then, we're having her write it down in a card that we'll be taking to dinner that night with our moms and do the big reveal at dinner! It will be a surprise for all of us! Wish us luck!

17 weeks 11-09-2007

11-09-2007

Well im suppose to be announcing what we're having but I can't because I don't know. I'm totally bummed, wait. Take that back. I'M ROYALLY PREGNANT TICKED OFF!!! Thirty mins before the u/s appt the lady calls and says she can't do it for blah blah blah reason (i blocked out her reasoning b/c I was already seeing red). So all this excitement ended up blowing up in my face. I was devastated. I know its not THAT big of deal considering I go to my regular u/s appt with my OBGYN Thursday but I was soooo pumped up for this!! My family had already made plans to meet us for dinner and everyone was sooo excited! UGH!!! The lady didn't even act like she cared either. I hope she knows that if I ever see her she will NOT be seeing a smile on my face. Now me and hubby are in a tiff b/c he wants to stay at home tonight and I want to go to a friends house and hang out. He says he doesnt want to go anywhere; um well if everything hadn't gone down the drain we would be "going out" to eat with our family and driving accross town to tell the gparents. Whats the difference?? Now he is saying I'm making this all about me. UM YES SIR - I'm the one having to deal with all these dang hormones and super duper emotional rollercoaster feelings on top of carrying an actual human being in my belly for nine months. Don't I have a LITTLE right to be selfish? I just wanted him to say "okay honey, we'll do whatever you want to tonight...i know you've had a rough day". NOPE. Instead we are fighting so we're just putting icing on the crap cake I got today. I'll get over it and I'm sure we'll work it out before the night is through but right now I want to hide under the covers and cry like a little girl. HERE'S TO NEXT THURSDAY - MAY IT BE 100X BETTER THAN TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11-11-200717.3 weeks Pregnant

11-12-07 So I just read my post from Friday again...haha...i was very hormonal wasn't i? Well that night I went home and just started cleaning like mad and by time the hubby got home I had folded two loads of laundry, emptied the trash, vacuumed, unloaded and loaded the dishwasher and put the rest of the dirty laundry in the washer. Then I locked myself in my room. The hubby didn't say a word about it and left to go play basketball...made me kinda upset that he didnt apologize for being mean earlier (still a lil hormonal at that point). Well not too long after I hear a shuffling and a quiet knock at the door. I hollered at our cat to shuttup (she always tries to get in the bedroom if she knows we're in there). A second later another soft knock. I turn around to scream through the door again at the cat and see a piece of paper w/ a pen shoved under the door. I grin. I pick it up and sure enough hubby had written a sweet lil note asking if we could start over and if I wanted to go on a date (on our couch) to catch a movie (on our tv). Then he had three boxes: yes, no, and maybe. Come on girls!!! Who could still be mad after that?!?! So the rest of the night was very nice and so was the weekend. I relaxed all weekend and on top of that me and Hubby got to feel lil bit kick!!! God has a way of making things better when you've had a bad day. I need to remind myself of that when I start to have another one! So now I can say that I feel tons better and am counting the days (again) till our u/s! FOUR AND COUNTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

November 14, 2007 Just found out today that I'm going to be an aunt to a BOY!!! My bro and sis in law went to their u/s appt and saw all boy parts! haha! I even got a copy of one of the pics! I'm so excited for them, I even cried. Mom and Dad cried too but I think Dad was the most emotional!! He's so happy! WE LOVE BOYS! Now its my turn tomorrow and I can't be more nervous! I'm worried and happy and scared and thrilled all rolled up into one! I doubt I'll sleep very well tonight! I pray that the lil bean will be active enough to show us the goods - if not I swear I'll lay there till something happens even if it takes all day! HaHa! My appt is early THANK YOU JESUS so ya'll should know by 11a.m. I CAN'T WAIT!!! Two boys or one boy and one girl???? One down - one more to go!

11-15-2007 Its a girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gracie Lynn measured right on time for her EDD and she is perfect and healthy! We were so excited. My mom and Keri's mom got to be there too and they were just as happy! I've never seen Keri so excited before. He REALLY want a girl! I bet he's still grinning! Well now mom has a boy and a girl to look forward to!

11-20-2007 I'M SOOOOOOOOOO READY FOR TURKEY DAY...I'M STARVING! HAH! Been feeling Gracie a lot now...mostly in the evening when I'm lounging around. I think she's excited about Thanksgiving too! Other than that nothing has been going on out of the ordinary - haven't yelled at the hubby for no reason in a while which is good! haha. Hope all my other prego girls are doing well! Love ya'll!!!!!!!

20 Weeks today!

11-30-2007

So today marks 20 weeks. Oh my has the time flown by it seems. I remember in the first few weeks of being pregnant thinking to myself that this pregnancy will last forever but here in the last 6 weeks or so, it seems to fly by! I can't believe its already been over two weeks since I found out that Gracie was a girl! I know these next four weeks will really go by fast b/c its Christmas . I really am trying my best to enjoy every minute of this pregnancy. When I feel Gracie squirm around I try to take a moment or two and just sit there and "feel " it. I love feeling my lil girl . It really is a blessing what God has gratned us....the joy and experience of carrying your own child. If you just sit back and really think about it, its amazing and a miracle to be in this posistion as a woman! We are granted the GREATEST gift of all!!!!!!!! Oh lord, I'm getting sappy. Well anyway - I just wanted to write a little something since its been so long since I've updated my page. News as of late: My sister in law is having a boy and she's naming him Brody Wayne. My mom is already buying boy and girl clothes and she seems to get more and more excited about her grandbabies as the days go by! My best friend just gave me THREE BAGS of clothes and shoes for lil Gracie ranging in size from newborn to 24mths! Their all wonderful, beautiful clothes and I'm very thankful for her - she also has given me a bassinette that is just beautiful. I really am blessed with a wonderful family and wonderful friends. Well, I don't have any complaints...Gracie is being pretty good. She likes to get on my low right side and sit on a nerve or something every once in a while. I'll get a bad "stitch" that hurts really bad so I'll push on that side and she'll move over and it will stop. Weird. Other than that, I feel GREAT. Hope all of ya'll are having a wonderful time being pregnant, not much longer till we really "pop". I can't wait! Love ya'll and God Bless!!

If you've left the crayons to melt in the car,

And forgotten just where the car keys are,

There's a perfectly good way to explain:

You see, you've come down with 'Mommy Brain.'

When you're not sure where the past 8 hours went,

Or whether the phone bill check's been sent,

If you've left the laundry drying in the rain,

It's just--you guessed it--Mommy Brain.

If you find yourself chatting for hours on end

About diaper prices with your cyberfriends,

You've just caught a particularly virulent strain

Of that affliction known as Mommy Brain.

If you left your bags at the grocery store

Or completely forgot what you went there for,

If you called the cat by your baby's name,

You can bet that Mommy Brain's to blame.

And if you know the words to 'Goodnight Moon' by heart,

Or you study your sleeping babe like a work of art,

If you're always surprised by how time is flying,

And the thought of that first birthday starts you crying.....

It's unavoidable girls, and I feel your pain,

For I, too, suffer from Mommy Brain.

But I'll admit one thing--of this I'm sure:

I hope they never find a cure.

Jan. 14, 2008

26 weeks pregnant and its my bday!

Allright Mrs. Pooh - here ya go! I've needed a little motivation here lately to update my blog and Mrs. Pooh was the one to do it! haha. Well lets see...its week 26 and I'm starting to feel the Third Trimester woes. As I type I'm trying to sit straight up with a bunched up jacket behind me b/c my lower back hurts so bad. And if I sit forward a little to relieve it, my ribs start hurting. Of course Gracie is getting so active now that I say "ow" out loud on accident. I can feel her little bony hands and feet (or elbows or knees) pushing and proding my tummy all the time. She stretches constantly too...she puts bulges on me from one side of my tummy to the other...she's going to be a long one! *(thanks to her daddy I'm sure!) She has started waking me up at night too with her gym routines, I swear this girl never sleeps! haha. I love every minute though. I've had weird dreams lately...one in particular really caught me off guard. I dreamt that we went for our 3d/4d scan and turned out Gracie was a little boy! I cried and cried and we actually held a "service" for Gracie's name. It made me feel as if she had died b/c I had gotten so use to her being a HER. I woke up really upset. I hope that doesn't happen in real life! I love my baby girl so much already I don't know how I would take to finding out it was a boy now. Other than that, we have moved into our new place. Its so much bigger and Gracie's room is HUGE! She'll have plenty of room to romp around in there. We got her bedding in a few weeks ago. I'll put pics up as soon as we get the crib. Its girly ladybugs, frogs, and dragonflies. TOO CUTE! Doc's visits: I have gained 19 pds total so far. I also failed my one-hour glucose test and will be taking the 3-hour Wednesday. I'm dreading sitting in that office for three hours but dreading even more that the only thing I can have is that drink since midnight the night before. I'll be STARVING before its over with. Oh well...I just hope I pass it. Well today is my 25th bday. I'm now half of fifty. Yay (*rolling eyes). Well to celebrate we will be going over to my gma's to eat dinner. I'm excited b/c she cooks whatever I want. She is a full blooded German so you better believe she is the best cook on this planet! Hubby gave me a makeover for my bday...Got my hair cut, colored, and highlighted + got my eyebrows waxed. I'll put pics up soon. I was worried about the coloring part but since a professional was going to do it, I wasn't as scared. But I still called the doc and he said as long as I don't drink it, I'll be fine. I made sure she kept the stuff away from my mouth! haha. Hopefully if I get enough mula for my bday, I can go buy the digital camera I want. (I just broke my other one...bummer!). Well lets see...is there anything else? Other than Gracie becoming a gymnist in my tummy - everything is going great! I'll update again soon. Love all you mommies! Take care of the lil ones!

02-07-2008

So I'll be heading over to 30 weeks today. *sigh* I can't believe this is almost over (or should I say "about to begin")? Weighing the pros and cons of this pregnancy so far, I have to say I've truly been blessed with a great pregnancy. Granted some days I want to throw myself off a bridge and lately it seems like the comfort levels have been at an all time low but all in all I can't complain! *(too much, even though sometimes I do!) I do have Gestational Diabetes though but it seems that if I just follow my meal plan, it will all be just fine. Of course I've only been testing my blood sugar since yesterday - haha. But at least its stayed normal so far! So shoot a lil prayer heavenwards that all goes great with the GD. What else? My SIL and I are having a double baby shower March 8th. We're sending out the invitations next week. Their sooooooo cute! They have blue AND pink baby feet stamped all over them. It's perfect. I CAN'T WAIT! I peeked at my registry the other day and there are things already bought! haha...niiiiiiice. The Braxton Hicks visit everyday. Their starting to take my breath away. Not TERRIBLE but def uncomfy. I've been paying attention and so far they have been very irregular so I know its not real contractions. I have yet to have to visit the ER from a scare (knock on wood) but twice already I've had the worst indigestion imagineable and it came in waves just like contractions, regular and everything and I ALMOST just said LETS GO TO THE ER but luckily right when I've made up my mind to go - it would disappear. Indigestion is weird like that. Walking around helps a lot I've found out. Well I go back to the doc on V-Day so I should find out then when my next sonogram to check her weight will be. I'm really nervous and excited about that. I haven't seen my beautiful Gracie since I was 17 weeks. Other than that, we are picking up all her furniture Friday (tomorrow). We just got the call that it was in. I'm so excited to put stuff together and get her room ready!!! My bestie is coming over this weekend to help paint polka dots in a border around the middle to give her room a nice little look...I can't wait to see how that turns out. WE'RE ALMOST THERE LADIES! Keep us in your prayers as ya'll are in ours!!

March 7, 2008 (34 Weeks)

So I'm three weeks from being considered full term. I can't believe it. The time really has flown by!!! My shower is TOMORROW and my sonogram to check on lil Gracie's weight, etc is the 13th! After those two events this will just be a waiting game. I'M SO EXCITED AND NERVOUS all wrapped into one! I've already had TWO of my prego friends give birth in the past two weeks and they were both less than two months ahead of me. Both had BEAUTIFUL healthy baby boys! I posted pics of the nursery - almost done. All we have to do is decorate and we'll be done!!! I'm waiting till after the shower to do that b/c I don't know what all I'm getting and plus my mom has taken the whole week off to "help out." I'm sooooooooo thankful for her - she truly is a blessing! So next week I'm taking a day and a half off so that me and her can unpack Gracie's clothes, wash them and put them in their rightful place, decorate her room, un-pack all her gifts and buy anything I still need. Then our sonogram on Thursday and then......the WAIT for Gracie!!!! I really have been blessed through this pregnancy and cannot have asked for better friends and family! Now on to the complaints. lol - MY BACK IS KILLING ME! I'm actually currently sitting in my bosses massage chair to help alleviate some of the pain but it doesn't make it go away completely. I take tylenol 2-3 times a day to take some of the pain away so its not unbearable. Plus I'm starting to retain water I think. My hands and feet are starting to swell some. I feel like I look like a beached whale! I'm getting indigestion and reflux pretty bad now too. I've had to sleep sitting up a few times in the past month or so. And the braxton hicks? ummmmm yea. I've had them for HOW LONG now??? It seems like years! haha. Their getting stronger by the day it seems. I'm now timing them every time I get them b/c I don't want to mistake the real thing for BH! Other than that things are going smoothly. My husband asks on a daily basis "when is Gracie getting here?" You can tell he's really starting to get excited. I tear up when I think about the first time he sees her and how he will react. Thats what I'm looking forward to the most! Well I hope everyone is still hanging in there! NOT TOO MUCH LONGER LADIES!!!! Keep us in your prayers as ya'll are in ours!!!

She's here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She arrived April 11 at 1:35a.m. I just went to my regular appt that day and came home with a baby! Its such a blessing to finally hold her in my arms. We are sooooo in love. She weighed 6.14 and was 18.5in long. BEAUTIFUL and HEALTHY! She looks JUST like her daddy when he was a newborn. I'm still trying to find my attributes in her. I think she has my attitude! LOL (j/k) I will be posting more soon. I just wanted to let everyone I'm okay and she's here!
