21 weeks

I have been feeling little miss Olivia move a lot more. The other night Albert felt it too. I don't think she likes cadbury eggs either because every time I eat one I get a stomach ache and she does the mambo. :) Well here are the most recent shots of my belly. I have one little stretch mark but other than that not much to report.

Wedding Day

We are married. We visited a courthouse and went to dinner. Here's a picture of the us listening to the vows the Judge reads. He kept stopping and asking us to get closer. We where already pressing againt each other, how much closer could we get?

20 weeks

Well it was our seven year anniversary on 1/16/09 we weren't able to get married but we went on a little trip. We went to Newport, OR so that we could be near the ocean and see the aquarium. It was beautiful.

No new info yet about Olivia. I'm still not sure if I am feeling her move. My belly is definitely getting fuller, and I can't sleep very well but that's about it.

Baby Olivia 19 weeks.

We went to babys r us to register for the baby shower. It was fun to pick out some stuff, and confusing on other things (like the breast pump) how do we know what we need? We also picked out Olivia's outfit for coming home. We bought two but the white one is the one she will wear home from the hospital. I love the socks!

Also here are her most recent ultrasound pictures. The doctor said she looks perfectly healthy, and all of my blood tests came back fine.

Well, we all have to wait another month for any news from the doctor. But hopefully I will start feeling her move soon. I will put weekly baby bump pics up too ;) We also start our baby classes on February 12th, so we will let you know all we learn.

Sooo, We found out we are having a baby on October 10, 2008. Only one month after moving far away from our families!! At first the news was not good or bad, just news. Now that we are used to the idea we are both very excited.

The pics are from January 8. This is the day we found out we are have a baby girl. We had already chosen the names earlier when we found out we were pregnant. Olivia Artemisia Palma. We have decided to name all of our children with middle names of famous artists that we like. Artemisia was an Italian artist in the 1600's. She is one of the most famous woman artists of her time. It is still noteworthy that a woman was able to create such beautiful art in that time.

For those who know me they can probably tell that is a baby-belly. For strangers on the bus I am just fat. This stage of the pregnancy is easier that the first few weeks when I felt sick all the time. I do have pains and can't sleep sometimes but otherwise I am happy to carry our new daughter around.

Today we went and registered for our baby shower. It was interesting to look at all the stuff, and daydream about getting it all. There is a jogging stroller that we really like, and I desperately hope we get a breast pump. Wow babies are expensive! We also picked out her outfit to wear home from the hospital. I'll upload that pic tomorrow
