Logan Allen's Room!!!!

So heres an update on how little Logan Allen is doing. As of Thursday September 16th he was 2lbs 8oz and about 13in long and doing just perfectly. He's so healthy and active it's painful. He loves to kick Mommy in the ribs and with the constant back pain it's terrible. But no matter how much I complain I love every minute of it. I am so happy with him. So by now he's probably 3lbs and still growing. I'm guessing by the time he's here he'll be about 7lbs if not bigger and probably about 20in if not longer.

Yesterday I went over to Justin's (Logan's dad) House and we made his spare bedroom into Logan's room. I am so happy that I got to help decorate an actual room for him. Justin, Kelsey(Justin's sister), Sharon (Justins mom) and I all spent all day decorating the room. We painted two colors. The top half of the room is painted a Retro Lime green while the bottom half of the room is painted Coffee Cake brown. It's so adorable. There is a white trim seperating the two colors. We also put up the crib at his house. I am so proud of Justin, he finally is getting ready for Logan and he's excited to be a dad.

In other news... I am doing very good. I am growing like a watermelon everyday. Everything is going absolutely wonderful. I will put up more recent pictures as soon as possible.

Getting Big!!!

Okay so far I'm at 26 weeks and 3 days. It has been a very tiring and very long journey so far and I still have 4 months to go. I finally am starting to look pregnant thought and I'm loving it. Logan kicks so much and it's very fun to sit there and talk to him. Here are some pictures of my big tummy. The first view is kinda looking down. I can't even see my feet anymore when I look down. That part got depressing. The second one is a view from the right side and the third one is from the left side. I now have to wear medium size maternity shirts and sweat pants. I can't really fit into my jeans. Also I haven't found any maternity pants to wear just yet. But I'm looking into it.

Pregancy Update

So a lot has happened.. I've had an ultrasound basically every month so far. I decided to do early screening tests to see if this baby would have the same problems that Seth had..however none showed up and this little one is perfectly healthy. About a month after I did the screening tests Sacred Heart scheduled me for a follow up to make sure the baby was growing at the rate it's supposed to.

I had that ultrasound appointment on July 12th 2010 and found out that I'm having a healthy BABY BOY!!!!!!!!

I couldn't be happier... However at the ultrasound they found a little bubble at the base of his spine that shouldn't be there. They reassured me that it doesn't look to be anything to worry about but I am a mom and worrying is what i do. They scheduled me to come back in a month to recheck everything and make sure that he is still perfect.

Me and Justin also picked out his name this month. I went through the entire name book looking for names I liked and made a list. Then I asked everyone around me which one they liked best. It came down to about 6 names so I just chose two that i liked best and made that his name. However Justin wanted to give him a family name so we changed it from what I had picked to what Justin wanted.

His name is Logan Allen!
I have that appointment on August 19th. So far I only have 4 more months to go. I am extremely excited and already have a whole dresser full of clothes along with a crib, a bassinette, a play yard, bouncer, swing and a whole bunch more.
Below is a picture of my tummy at 24 weeks. I'm not really showing yet but it feels like I'm the size of a beach ball.

The Most Amazing News Ever!!!

Okay so yesterday I was feeling really sick and really tired, I also had really bad cramps. I haven't been eating very much and when I do eat I don't eat very healthy so I thought it was just a stomach ache and everything. Well I realized that I was probably about to start my period but that didn't account for the cramps... I never get them.

So yesterday I decided to take an at home pregnancy test just to be sure I wasn't but the results came out completely different then I thought they would.

So as of 5:33pm on Wednesday April 7th I am Pregnant!!!!

I am so excited about it. At first I was freaking out about how am I going to raise a kid? how am I going to tell my family? Should I keep it or give it up for adoption?

with all these questions in my head I was completly overwhelmed but I went for a walk to clear my head and I realized that I can do. So I am going to keep my baby and raise it. I told my family and I have the support of everyone this time. I'm so excited.
