Second Ultrasound

April 3, 2012


By week 33 I started measuring big, 37 centimeters. My belly should have measured approximately the same centimeter as the number of weeks I was in the pregnancy. At week 35 I was at 40 centimeters. Of course, this can fluctuate depending on the baby's position in my belly. So, my Dr had me do a second ultrasound to measure how big the baby was and how much fluid I had. I measured at 40 weeks and 1 day at week 36 according to the ultrasound...full term and lots of fluid. From that time forward, I had one more ultrasound and took two non-stress tests to make sure baby was okay.

Above is baby smiling...a precious moment for mommy to see. In another ultrasound, I was told that baby would be born with a full head of hair.

Easter

April 8, 2012



I made up a small Easter basket for Mike this year. He seemed to enjoy the treats.



We had a Stuy family dinner and I made some fun bird nest cupcakes. They tasted as good as they looked too! Also, to keep in my tradition, I made a yummy pan de pasqua.



Baby Shower

March 23, 2012



I am so blessed to have amazing friends at work. Thy, Kim, Donna and Kristina got together and put together a baby shower for me. The gift above is cleverly made up of diapers, blankets, a pair of socks, a bottle, onesies and a little bear. So cute!

It's a Boy!!!

December 6, 2012


I had my ultrasound at 21 weeks and we found out we're having a boy. We went out to eat at Olive Garden afterwards to celebrate the news. Mike surprised me with a cute onesie outfit for baby.

Below is a picture of my baby bump just starting out.
