15 weeks and growing


We are 15 1/2 weeks into this amazing experience and we are happy to report everything is going great! I am still feeling good which I am so thankful for. Today we went in for our checkup and baby appears to be doing well too! The heartbeat was strong and right where it should be. Of course he or she is trying to keep whether its a boy or girl a secret. They say if the heart rate is over 140 it's a girl and under 140 its a boy... Baby's heart rate today? 140. :-) So, it appears we have a 50/50 chance of having one or the other. haha! And as for the question of if we will find out or not... we are still undecided. I do think that either way it is safe to say you will not see a post on here next month about whether it's a boy or girl. It will be our secret until August. Sorry!

So far this pregnancy has been smooth (knock on wood it stays that way!) I am still amazed that this is really happening since I haven't had very many of the "typical" symptoms. Of course my growing belly is a reminder everyday. :-)

Jim and I had a great Valentine's day. We ventured out to a restaurant we'd never been to before and loved it! The atmosphere was great and the food was fantastic. We spent our time earlier in the day running around trying to get a grasp on all the projects we'd like to get done around the house before the little one makes his/her grand appearance in August. There is so much to be done!
