I just finished up scanning the ultrasound pictures. I’m barely able to see anything, kind of looks like tv static to me. You can click each of the images to see the larger picture of them.

We went to the doctor this morning to get our ultrasound (21 weeks) and find out if we’re having a puppy. James is going to be putting up our pictures soon so you can see what Ethan looks like so far. He was laying sideways so it was a little harder for the technician to see everything and get good pictures, but you can see his face and feet in some of the pictures. I finally broke down today and went maternity clothes shopping after school at Target. As I was looking through the clothes and finding not much in my size, James strolls up and surprises me. What a sweetie! I ended up trying on almost everything they had that was near my size and came home with two pairs of shorts, a pair of capris, a pair of dress pants, and two shirts. I tried some dresses on, but they all looked like huge tents…yikes! We don’t even want to discuss the bathing suits…haha. We had a regular doctor’s appointment last week where we thought we’d get our ultrasound and find out the baby’s sex. Turns out it was just a regular checkup so the earliest we can get in because of schedule conflicts is going to be Thursday, May 21. I’m starting to show a lot more and am seriously going to have to go shopping for maternity clothes in the next week. Rubberbands are almost not working anymore and only t-shirts fit now! We’re going to put some pictures of the baby bump up very soon. We had the 19th week doctor visit yesterday and everything is looking good. The heartbeat was in range with what it should be. We also got back the genetic tests done on Kristin to screen for any potential issues and everything came back clear and good. We did find out (or atleast I did) that because of something with Kristin’s blood, she’s going to need some kind of shot because if not it could cause issues with the baby. I’m not too sure what that was all about, but Kristin will probably leave a comment on this post explaining it a little better. We thought we were going to find out the sex this visit, but it ended up that it wasn’t part of the doctors visit and we needed to schedule a seperate ultrasound for that. We couldn’t get in Monday because they wanted to wait until week 20 (and next Monday is only 19 1/2) and then the Thursday after that Kristin has meetings after school. We’re trying to plan to go on May 18th if they have something available, but we’re waiting for them to call back to let us know. Besides that, nothing really has changed. Kristin is planning on going to the Gap Outlet down in Kentucky somewhere on Sunday to finally buy some maternity clothes. Her rubber band trick with the pants isn’t going to last much longer since she’s now using the large rubber bands. For those that don’t know, Kristin went with her brother to Alaska to visit her sister. She went there over spring break for about 10 days. I’ve finally gotten her pictures up in our photo gallery.

(Inside joke..sorry..haha) Soooo…we’re having a BOY!!! James Ethan looks healthy and everything is growing normally. We are getting another ultrasound done at about 30 weeks to see if the placenta has moved up from where it is. There’s a chance I may have to have a C-section if it doesn’t move up.
