It only took 3 1/2 years...

...but Livy finally sat on the Easter Bunny's lap! My mom, Livy, and I went to the mall earlier today. Livy was so excited to see him and gave him a hug and a kiss. So Wes and I took her back this evening to get her picture made. I can't believe she actually did it!

Pics

We had a 4D ultrasound done last night at What's Kickin' in Bentonville. It was pretty neat! Little munchkin wasn't too cooperative, hopefully that's not a sign of things to come. :) She did get a few shots of his face, though. He just wouldn't move his hand away and lift up his chin. We should get our DVD withing a week, I think. Livy wasn't too impressed with it, but she's not feeling too well right now so it was understandable. I didn't post the picture of his 'boy parts', I didn't think that was really for public consumption! :)



He just slept and slept away. So unusual! I had a Dr. Pepper, but that still didn't wake him up.

He was curled up with his legs up by his head. No wonder I'm so uncomfortable! You can see his leg making a 90 degree angle and his little bottom.

More sleeping. He did yawn for us a few times in the 2D part, hopefully that will be on our video.

Little hand. Looks like he's missing a finger, but he's not really. :)

Sleeping and dreaming, I think. He finally started wiggling about right here. Only 2 1/2 more months! :)

It's a....

boy! I don't know if I'm used to the idea of a boy yet. :) There aren't many boys in my family, and I just kind of assumed we would have another girl. Livy's getting used to the idea of a little brother. She was pretty upset at first, though. :( Our ultrasound tech (who was also our wedding planner!) was very nonchalant about it. She said (in the middle of taking measurements for the doc to check out), "I think it's going to be a boy." I thought she was kidding at first, it was so sudden. Turns out, she just got a really (and I mean REALLY) good view at that time. It's very obviously a boy, no mistakes there. We've got a lot of shopping to do, we don't have hardly any unisex clothes because everyone always wants to buy girly, lacy stuff for little girls. The shopping part is definitely fun. :) I'll try to post some pictures if I can get them scanned in. I don't have any new ones on the computer.

Boo.

Apparently the weather at my clinic (2 miles from our house) is bad enough that they are cancelling all their appointments for this afternoon. I am upset and mad. It's doing nothing here at our house, and the forecast doesn't even call for it to start until after 5 at least. We have an appointment tomorrow, but it's really doubtful we'll be able to make that. So the next available appointment is Friday. Double boo.

Ta-da!

Livy wanted to be in the picture also. :) I think I look about the same from last time at 20 weeks, but you can judge for yourself, I'll try to post a last time pic from the other computer.

Pig Sooie!

Comparing pom-poms

Big hugs!

I can't believe she got this close to Sue E.!

I forgot to post these pictures of Livy at the women's basketball game yesterday. We went with Sheri and Jeff (he had to film, but we saw him afterwards). We went once last year, and Livy was a little scared of the Hogs. Not this time, though! She was all about seeing the hogs! She wore her hog nose for a little bit at the beginning of the game, but it's a bit big for her face. She waved her pom-pom the whole time though, and even did a good job calling the Hogs! Thanks Aunt Sheri and Uncle Jeff!!

Halfway there! (and belated Christmas post)

Here are some pictures from when my dad and Wes went on their snowmobile ride in Alaska. We had a great vacation. It was a little tiring, but lots of fun. I'll post more pictures once I figure out how to get them off Shutterfly. I'm a little irritated with them right now, but that's another story. :)

We went to the science museum, the zoo, the mall, played in the snow, and Livy got to go skiing! She was adorable in her little bitty skis and helmet. She did a pretty good job, too, if I do say so myself. :) The pictures are pretty dark, since it gets dark in Alaska pre-4:00, but some of them are good. They are also on Shutterfly right now.

So I'm 20 weeks today. Woo! Halfway, and it's all downhill from here. Yeah, right! :) We find out next Monday what we're having (if baby cooperates). So if you want to take a guess, now is the time. I'll try to post a picture of what I look like, if you need that for reference. I honestly have no idea what we're having. I keep thinking boy, but I thought that until Livy was born. Most people think it's a boy (not to bias your opinion) since this pregnancy has been very different from my last. We'll see... Until then, you'll just have to take a guess!
