Our "First" Babies

Tiffany and Nole turned 3 years old earlier this month. They have both really grown up in the past year. They still have some puppy moments especially with toliet paper (mainly Tiffy)! Other than that they are such good dogs and I am sure they will be great with Baby Jace. They still enjoy going to the dog park, taking long walks throughout our neighborhood, visiting both grandma's houses, and of course chasing squirrels!

Christmas and Nursery Pictures!

We recently purchased our baby furniture from Crib 4 Life. They are awesome and they even deliver for a small fee. It was definitely worth every penny! We are going with a"fireman" theme for Jace' nursery. It is by no means finished, but I am sure after the shower and christmas we will be pretty much set. We also bought a Dutailer rocker/glider/recliner from Babies R US and it is so comfortable. Jeremy loves to watch football games in it and we both practice rocking the dogs in it lol!!

I also included some Christmas pics of our home with the blog. Enjoy!

18 weeks pic

I meant to post this pic awhile back, but got busy and forgot. My belly has definitely grown since then. I am actually almost now going into my third trimester. I am still feeling pretty good, but I have noticed my energy level is starting to go back down again and running is definitely coming to an end soon. I feel Jace kick all of the time. He is so funny as soon as Jeremy puts his hands on my belly he stops moving. I will definitely post pics soon of my current belly and baby Jace after my next doctors appointment on the 7th.

It's a ....

Profile Pic! (My favorite)

BOY! We were both very anxoius and excited for this appointment. The sonographer took her time with us and she made the experience awesome. At first, she was just showing us pics of the baby's face then all of a sudden she was able to get the baby to finally cooperate so she could move further down. When baby finally let her, she asked me if I knew what that was!? I started to cry and said yes it is a BOY! Jeremy was so excited he jumped up and gave me the biggest kiss and said thank you for making my dream come true. I get choked up just thinking about it all over again lol. We will definitely be going back to her for our 4d pics at 28 weeks. Enjoy!!

September Check-Up

Everything went extremely well at this appointment. The baby's heartbeat was great at 153 bpm and I still weigh the same (YEAH!). I feel great and I only get tired on the days I workout now. The doctor told me to continue working out throughout my pregnancy because its good not only for me, but the baby and delivery as well. I go back in 3 weeks for my next sonogram to find out the sex of the baby. I can't wait!

Second Trimester

I finally entered my second trimester. Not only have I reached a new milestone in my pregnancy, I feel so much better! My energy is coming back slowly each day. I am also working out more and running around a lot more lately. Recently, we started to get things ready for the baby. Over the weekend, we went with Aunt Tonya to Babies R US and got started on our baby registry. Today, we got our carpets and tile cleaned before we start to turn the guest bedroom into a nursery. I am definitely starting to realize time is flying by so I am trying to stay on top of things that need to be done before Baby H arrives.

Pregnancy Update

Many of you have been asking me how I have been feeling lately and I thought I would do a quick update. These past couple of weeks I have been so fatigued and a little nauseated at times. I think it has a little to do with the wonderful Florida heat we are experiencing right now and the rest is just normal first trimester symptoms. I am still working out, but not as much or as heavy as I was doing pre-pregnancy. Many of you have been telling me it will pass soon because I am almost at the end of my first trimester and I sure hope it does, but I know if it does not it will be all worth it in the end. :)
