Rylee finally had the hiccups for the 1st time

Well Monday 12-28-09 I felt Rylee Michelle have the hiccups for the first time it's the coolest feeling. :) It felt like I could feel her heartbeat or pulse or something. I didn't know what it was since I had never felt that before. But was talking with Pattie my mother-in-law and she said that's hiccups. I said oh silly me. The joys of motherhood. :) I am so excited! I can't wait for Rylee to be here. :) Yesterday 12-29-09 Tuesday it snowed again and it was so beautiful. Mark and I have been just getting lots of naps and laying around staying warm. We have also been playing all our new board games we got for Christmas and darts. 2010 will be here Friday and so time is flying by so fast. Mark's cousin had their little girl Harper on Monday so Rylee will be a few months later. I am sure they will be great playmates. Mark is feeling better and is not having any more pain in his side so we are hoping he has passed his kidney stones. :) So that is wonderful! Well everyone had to tell u about the hiccups. Have a blessed day!!

Christmas is over now... :(

Well sorry I haven't posted in awhile I have been busy enjoying my days off work. I had a wonderful Christmas. I had the whole week off Christmas off except for one shift. So I enjoyed sleeping in each day. :) Well I am 29 weeks along which is 7 1/2 months now. Still feeling wonderful and haven't had any problems. Besides my belly running into things and it being harder to get up and down it hasn't been too bad yet. Rylee sure moves alot and kicks more and more often now. Its such a cool feeling to feel. She always likes to kick right before I go to bed so I can't go to sleep. haha! Looks like my mother-in-law Pattie is going to have a baby shower for me in Irving January 23rd Saturday and then my mom is going to have another baby shower for me in February which will be in Keller. So hopefully soon I will get the nursery painted and will start working on that project. I am going to register at Babies R Us. I am so excited because we got a video camera for Christmas so now we will be able to tape Rylee. :) We had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed all the family time. Mark still has a kidney stone and so it hurts him every few days. He has also been sick with a sore throat. So please be praying for him to feel better and to pass his kidney stone. Well I hope everyone had a wonderful holidays and has a Happy New Year!! 2010 is near!!

16 Days till Christmas!

Hello everyone!!

Well I will be 27 weeks along in 2 days this friday. One more week till I will be in my third trimester already which will make me 7 months along. Time has gone fast. I have gained 21 lbs so far. Which seems like alot to me but is right on track. So thats good. Because I sure have been eating lots of junk food and Mark eats right along with me. haha! I think he has put on some pounds too. I have been feeling Rylee kick alot lately and she likes to twirl and turn too. I feel her the most in the mornings and right before I go to bed. Mark likes to talk to her and feel her kick. :) We have started to clear out her room which is currently our office and so we only have a little more to do. We are planning on painting the nursery light pink and will add some brown not sure where yet. I may also do a poka dot border. Still haven't bought the bedding yet but the one I want is Babies R Us online. So maybe after Christmas I can afford to get it. :) I think Rylee is going thru a growth splurt because I have been so tired lately and groggy. Even lightheaded at times. So she is taking my energy some days. I'm very blessed though that I get to have a 2-3 hr nap each day to help with my sleepyness. My next midwife appointment is December 21, 2010 Monday. My midwife had to reschedule because she is sick and also going out of town. So will look forward to my next appointment. Mark and I have been staying busy lately and are going to the Farm our country house this weekend. So it will be nice to get away. I hope everyone is doing well and will continue to keep u updated. Rylee Michelle Crow is officially going to be her name. It has just stuck and we love it. Till next time have a blessed day!
