Oh what a feelin!!!

Posted Wednesday 9/30/09

WE ARE 6 MONTHS PREGNANT!!!! Holy crow I can't believe it. Jaxon has been moving like crazy and oh what a feelin it is. According to my prego books he weighs a little over a pound so I know from now on he will be packing a pretty good punch. As a matter of fact Jason was finally able to feel his little movements last night while we were laying in bed. He was so excited he even got up this morning talking about it. Jason felt 2 big kicks last night and you should have seen his face light up. I am so blessed to have a husband who gets excited about everything in our pregnancy. At our last appointment I was measuring great and Jaxon's heart beat was strong. Overall things are right on track. We have scheduled a 3D/4D ultrasound for October 14 so it will be interesting to see who he might look like.

Update on Jason: He has become really involved in the Buda fire department recently. He is now a volunteer fire fighter with Buda and has joined the Buda competition fire team. What does this mean you ask? Well, we are having Fire Fest in Buda this weekend and Jason is a part of a competition team with career fire fighters who compete in the fire fighter physical challenge against other cities. From what I have heard Jason is one of the best on the team and has really been impressing the other fire fighters. There could be a great opportunity for him in the next 6 months as he has decided he would like to pursue becoming part of the fire department through cadet school that is supposed to start in February. He has been making friends and a name for himself and I am very proud of him. If anyone is interested in coming to our small town for a big time, we will be out in Buda city park all weekend. There is nothing like a small town festival to make you appreciate your town. Saturday Jason will be competing if anyone wants to come watch.

Please keep us in your prayers as we embark on a new season of life both with a baby and an opportunity with Buda fire department. We just pray that God opens the door for Jason and pushes him straight through it. Also we pray for fulfillment and peace as Jason follows his dreams! I am sooo proud of you Jason. I love you!!!

I will be posting a new belly picture tonight!!!

Over half way

Posted 9/8/09

It is so hard to believe that we are over half way through the pregnancy. It feels like we just found out. It seems like he will be here sooner than I can take a breath. We still don't have a middle name but we have picked out paint color, fabric and furniture color for the bedroom. The nursery will not look like a baby room except for the crib which is exactly what we want. We hope to keep it modern and simple...making it easier to transition into a big boy room. Im trying to think ahead because he is growing so fast in my belly, I cant imagine how fast he will grow out of it (AHHH). I will be 21 weeks tomorrow and I am starting to feel little hints of movement. Of course as a first time mom I have no idea what its supposed to feel like so it could be anything from gas to just plain hunger! I am so excited to be is the next stage where not only I can feel it but Jason can too. He just lights up when I talk about it. He is definately a proud papa bear.

I posted sonograms picture on a previous post so if you haven't had a chance to look, just scroll on down.

20 weeks 5 days

NEW CAR

Posted 9/8/09

Yeah we got a new car FINALLY! It took lots of patience and prayer but we found a vehicle that we can grow into....and by we I mean me and my belly!!! We are so excited to have a car that will hopefully be perfect for parenthood. Jason is still trying to sell his motorcycle so we will keep praying for something to work out. Over all we are very pleased with our new (used) purchase!
