Pictures and Video... Finally!

So I've made it a bit suspenseful. After weeks and weeks of constant reminders (a.k.a. nagging), I've finally got around to putting up pictures and the video from our gender check ultrasound on April 21. This is where we found out we'd be having a Gracie instead of a Timmy.

Quilting dilemma!

So there still aren’t pictures or a video, but I don’t want to pressure Bryon into posting them… So I am patiently waiting… I hope it isn’t much longer!

20 Weeks, the Half-Way Point!

I am now 20 weeks along, half-way there! Though Bryon has not posted the video of our little girl I thought I should at least give an update on how Grace and I are doing. There will probably be a post with a bunch of pictures and the video to come.

Luckily, just before we found out about our little girl, Bryon finally agreed to the name Grace. We still haven’t decided on the middle name, but there has been a few good recommendations.

It's a...

Girl! On 4/21/11 we decided to go to a 4D ultrasound location and see if we could find out the gender of our little baby. We received a video of her and a few pictures. I am posting one picture with this message. I am going to try to get Bryon to upload the video for everyone to see. We also recorded her heart beat on our last visit with the doctor on 4/28/11. I am not able to upload the recording for some reason so I will have Bryon post it. 


Also, I am pretty sure I can feel her moving,

11 Weeks

So, its been a while since I posted a new blog and Bryon has been pressuring me to do so. I haven't had the time to lately because of school and work, but now I am on Spring Break and thought I should take advantage of the free time...

Exciting Times

These here are exciting times! First, just a couple weeks ago, Kayla being Kayla was getting a little worried because she was four days late. So we went out and got some tests and ended up with this......
