Trying hard to keep up with the non-pregger ones was tough but I am so glad I was able to hang for awhile...yes we are at Cowgirls!
This heat is more draining than anything.

32 WEEKS AND COUNTING...
An enjoyable boat cruise with friends and family on one of the record hot days in early June. These pictures were taken shortly before the wind storm blew in fast and furious! I can't believe that I am going to continue to get bigger and bigger, I don't feel like there is any room to grow.

Baby Daddy Proposes to Baby Momma
Baby now has parents that are engaged to be married...the baby is very excited about this and is kicking momma all the time :) So I guess we won't hyphenate the last names after all. We both thought Kjorvestad - Mittelstadt would look great on the back of a sports jersey.

IT'S A BOY!!!
Today we found out that we are having a baby boy! We had a "Sex Party" to reveal the sex of the baby to our immediate family and it was such a fun experience for us all. The Grandmas cried of course and all four aunties jumped with excitement at the news. It feels so surreal and we can't believe that this is actually happening.

Ultrasound #2
So yesterday we had our ultrasound and everything is looking good and healthy with the bambino. The baby had a heart rate of 135 bpm, so those of you that think you know what the Sex will be from that...there you go! The new delivery date is July 29th, two days earlier than what they originally told us. The baby was punching quite a bit which concerns me a little; we may have an ultimate fighter or boxer in the womb :)
Eric got a new camera lense in the mail this week and he's been busy figuring out how to use it so we will be able to capture professional looking pics of the baby once he/she is here.
We picked up the crib on Wednesday and I must say it's a little weird to have baby furniture in the house, it's becoming so real so fast.

New Dr & New Hospital
I finally chose my new Dr yesterday and I couldn't be more excited. I think it's going to be a perfect fit! I am going to be at Swedish Midwifery in Ballard.
One other benefit is that I will be delivering at Swedish Ballard...yeah! I really liked how comfortable and low-key it was when I last visited.

17 Weeks...almost halfway there
17 Weeks has gone by so fast and I assume that the next few months will fly by too. It's been so great to get valuable feedback from other moms and dads on what to do and what to buy.
Yes, I actually stopped a couple w/kids in Target yesterday to ask how to pick-out a car seat. They were so sweet and helped to give me some tips.
Eric has been working hard on getting the backyard ready for a much needed shed. Last week he did about 3 - 4 dump runs and organized a bunch of junk in the backyard...he's my hero! Since su casa is super small we need a shed to put all that stuff that we don't use everyday. We are already running out of room and the baby and all the "stuff" that they come with isn't even moved in yet. I'm hoping that once we get the office turned into a nursery that we will have purged a bunch of things...anyone doing a yard sale soon, we have a lot to sell :)

1st Ultrasound
This is a belated post only because we weren't blogging when this took place but I thought it would be a good idea to revisit.
Our first ultrasound was on January 12, 2009 and I was about 11 weeks pregnant (ewww bentley just farted and it really stinks), and it was a routine first appointment at the Dr's office which they call the intake appointment. You don't actually see a Dr but you do get a lot of face time with a well qualified nurse. We first did the Doppler, which is what allows you to hear the heartbeat but we weren't so lucky to hear a heartbeat from some reason or another. The nurse said we were going to need to to an ultrasound which we were happy that it was going to happen on that day!! (Waiting really stinks) So we went upstairs and had ourselves an ultrasound, which was quite possibly the coolest thing that Eric or I had ever seen! There in fact was a heartbeat (a strong one) and the lil peanut looked less alien like than I thought. It was moving so much that the tech said we had a healthy swimmer on our hands! Oh no we thought to each other...it's going to be active just like Eric was when he was little, just ask his mom.
All in all the baby looked healthy and we left with the first most expensive black and white picture of our little one...amazing!

Movies
We just finished watching a movie that I rented at the library, "From Conception to Birth." We think we remember watching this in 9th grade health class but it was a nice refresher without being too in your face.
By the way, Libraries are wonderful! I just went to my local library for the first time since I was in elementry school and these establishments have really come a long way. The way it scans your checked out books and movies is really top-notch. Plus I think it took me less than 3 min to get a library card which used to take over a week to get in the mail. I just hope I can remember to return the books and movies on-time...that was always an issue for me.
Learning and Loving it,
Kate
