28 weeks down...12 to go....

Declan's Bed

28 weeks

28 weeks and counting...the thought there are only 12 more weeks left makes me a little nervous/anxious and feeling I am not prepared. So many books to read and prepare and ONLY 12 weeks! Ahhh....

So as you can tell we have started to work on the nursery...and by that I mean, got the bed up! haha. I have been working on getting his closet organized. Slowly it is coming together. This kid is going to have more clothes than me...not fair.

I go back to the doctor on Friday for a follow up appt, I will be 29 weeks. Hoping everything is still ok but I have a lot more questions this time. (Like I said..I have been reading ALOT)

Thanks for reading!

26 weeks and counting...

Meet Declan with his first mustache. :)
26 weeks....I am a week behind. (Currently 27 weeks(
He is growing and so is Mommy.

I am currently 27 weeks pregnant. Things are going great. Took my Gestational diabetes test and PASSED! So far I have gained 15 lbs. No new cravings and no new symptoms. Just noticing his little legs and arms getting stronger everyday. He is such a true blessing to me and I am loving my pregnancy this far. Daddy and I are working on getting the nursery together, slowly but surely. We are realizing that Mommy and Daddy have TOO much Junk! We have made one trip to Goodwill so far. We hope to get alot done next weekend b/c we truly only have about 4-5 weekends home before Declan gets here...makes us very nervous!

I will try to get better at updating weekly. Thanks for reading!

Love,

Whitney & Declan

Long legs and dimples like Daddy...

Declan bent over his loooong legs.
Long legs just like Daddy.
There is that sweet baby smile!
Hands in front of the face...profile.

I had an amazing experience today at work. I got asked to help demonstrate a new ultrasound machine in radiology. I thought at first it was just a normal ultrasound and was ecstatic to see Mr. Declan again. Since we had only seen him once since we found out he was a boy. I had been having a couple dreams that made me worried it was a girl...no worries. ALL BOY! Like I said I had expected just a FREE plain ultrasound when in fact I got to experience a 3D/4D ultrasound! AMAZING! Declan defiantly put on a show for al the ultrasound techs...very active little guy! We saw him wrap his legs up by his face, cup his hands over his face, suck his thumb, kick and turn, stretch, and SMILE! Some of the techs were trying to get a shot of his face but he kept keeping his arms and hands in the way. One of the made a comment like, "I wish he would move his hands." About that time...his hands moved away from his face and he smiles...DIMPLES and all! It's almost like he said, "Here...take my picture!" Just like his Daddy, my baby boy with sweet dimples and very long legs. I am IN LOVE!!!

Enjoy the pictures!

Love,

Whitney & Declan
