Dreaming of a White Christmas...


We hit the "16 week" mark last Saturday! It's hard to believe... At first it seemed to go by so slowly and now it is flying by. We had an appointment last Thursday and everything is where it should be! The baby's heart beat is still 160 and I've gained 6 lbs! I feel really good.

We finished our Christmas shopping yesterday and put up the tree. We even put up a little stocking for our baby-to-be! We're so excited to find out what it is so there is no more referring to "it". In fact, our appointment to find out the gender isn't until January 5th. The girl who opened her Christmas presents a week early last year (with Quinn's permission and participation) cannot wait that long! I am having an elective ultrasound on December 17th. They have been given instructions to put the ultrasound pictures, as well as the gender written down, into a sealed envelope. Quinn and I are going to open the envelope on Christmas with our families! We are so excited!

Happy Holidays, all! Can't wait to share more with you!

He loves to run around with his arms behind him like he's an airplane and says several words and two-word phrases at this point: what's this, mama, dada, papa, grama, dog, horse, eyes, love you, please, thank you, sorry, bye-bye, hi, no, yes, etc. His receptive language seems superior: he understands so much! He LOVES animals; we recently started getting him the little animals from Tractor Supply. He now has North American, African and farm critt...
