It's a....

GIRL!!!
We had our ultrasound on Friday morning. I got to see the specialist to make sure that everything looked good since we have the E antibody as a factor in this pregnancy. He was very nice!! He assured me that we would keep a close eye on my titers (sp?) to make sure that they don't go up. If they do we will take some more precautions. So it is one of those things where we are trying not to worry until we need to.

The doctor said that everything looks great with baby girl number 2. Jonathan wasn't able to go to the ultrasound b/c he couldn't get off of work. I was sad that he wouldn't be there, but my good friend Melissa had a great idea. We had the doctor write the sex on a piece of paper and stick it in an envelope. He even included a picture with a drawing :) Then I met Jonathan for lunch and we opened the envelope together. So even though he wasn't there, we still got to find out together and that's what matters, right?

We are still talking about names, but haven't come to agree yet. So we shall see.

We went to the pumpkin patch last week with some friends. Here are some pictures! I don't know what is wrong with my camera. Maybe I need a new one.

Its a Family Thing

So we have all been enjoying some Guitar Hero around here. The other day Bryan was playing and Kylee observed for a second before making her move. She went to our guitar spot (behind the recliner) and got herself one so she could play with Bubba. So cute.



Here is one of her as she found a treasure straight from the laundry room. A basket full of silkies and blankies. It doesn't get any better than this!
Here is a video I shot of Kylee browsing through the paper. If I remember correctly we walked down the street the check the mail (we have those dumb community mailboxes) and turned around and came right back. It was so hot that day that I had to come in and sit under the fan. I'm such a wimp.



We had our first doctor's appt. about our little peanut today. He did go ahead and do an ultrasound and said everything looked good. Basically I just trusted him. He pointed out the sac and "pregnancy" as he called it, but I couldn't see anything. I'm hoping when we go back in a couple of weeks that our peanut will be big enough so we can hear a heartbeat. Kylee cried while the doctor was doing the ultrasound. I'm glad that Jonathan was there to help. The doctor tried to assure her that he wasn't hurting me, but she didn't trust him.

I went and picked out new glasses today. I was thankful to have a nurse that just said, "no those don't look good" to all of the pairs except the one I got. I need guidance in these things, especially since I am so blind when I have my glasses off and I have to get up really close to the mirror to see myself. :) The eye doctor said that my eyes were turning out and having trouble staying aligned. She said it was common during pregnancy and would most likely go away afterwards. I hope so, I haven't worn glasses full time since 8th grade. They are going to put prisms in my prescription to help. If only they could do that to contacts. It was interesting though, she held up the prisms to see how they worked and I could immediatly feel my eyes relax. I am looking forward to some relief.

Bryan has been down in Austin spending time with his cousins and Grandma this week. He is coming back in the morning, I am looking forward to seeing him. My mom offered to take Kylee too to give me a break, but I had a pregnant moment. I was packing her bag and burst into tears saying, "I might miss her, she can't go." In my defense I had been away from her that Friday night before. I know, I know I have to toughen up.
