24 Weeks and counting!

Well folks we officially have a pregnant belly!! It is amazing to look about at the picture from a month ago and see how much my belly has grown. And it only gets bigger from here...eek!!

Here is my 24 week picture...

Update on baby Harper: if you didn't know, we have seen a specialist twice now to make sure Harper's heart is in tip top shape. Due to the fact that my dad passed away from a congenital heart defect they wanted to make sure I didn't pass it on to my child. Even though the odds are very slim, I still have a higher chance of having a child with a heart defect than the average person. So last week we got a chance to see little Harper again and briefly got to see her in 3D. I'll tell you though, she is a busy body. Every time we have a sonogram the tech always says "Wow, you have a wiggle worm!" I don't mind it too much right now because it lets me know she is still there :) The tech did say it's going to make for an uncomfortable mommy when she gets bigger! YIKES! The specialist wants to see us one more time when I am 32 weeks just to do one last check and make sure she is growing like she is supposed to. After that we should be in the clear to deliver a healthy baby!

Here is the picture from last weeks appointment. That nose is still as cute as ever!

The other day we came home to a very nice surprise on our porch. We got our car seat and stroller that we registered for! Bob and Gail got us our first major baby gift that we have to have and we are very thankful. We got it all put together pretty easily and made sure the stroller fit in our trunks. It is still a rather large contraption in the folded up position, but it fit just fine. Now Harper will be rockin the red and gray Chicco car seat and stroller when we're out and about :)

As you can see Mic and Murry are more interested in what Aaron has, but they were rather curious when we were getting it out of the box. According to my count down on my phone we have 112 days until Harper will be here. I know that time will go quickly, especially when we hit that 90 day mark. January 19th will be here before we know it.

Until next time...
