Pregnancy Massage

Yesterday I went to a bridal shower for my friend Katy. The shower started with some time at a spa in Lexington. I decided to splurge and have a pregnancy massage. It was great! It was just upper body (head, shoulders, and back) but it was wonderful. I was able to lay on my stomach in this pregnancy pillow thing. If you have been pregnant you know that you can't lay on your stomach once you start to show a lot and it is a treat to lay on your stomach. The baby really like the massage. He moved all over the place the whole time! I definitely think I will sign up for a couple more massages when I get bigger and my back hurts more.

Halfway there....

WOO HOO! Halfway there! It really has gone by pretty fast. I am so excited to know the gender and be able to start decorating the nursery. I feel great and look forward to this part of the pregnancy where I feel the best. I know it will soon turn to fat, uncomfortable and tired! There are some pregnancy "symptoms" I deal with but nothing that keeps me from functioning. Heartburn is the worst right now. Other than that I still have nosebleeds and my ears are all stopped up. I did start swelling some today at school : ( Most of all I am enjoying feeling the baby move and feel like I am finally bonding with him.


I also want to thank everyone that has checked my blog and left me message or comments. It means so much to Scott and I have to have so many people that are interested in our pregnancy and Baby Montgomery : ) I know he will be loved by many!

It's a.............

SO Scott and I went to the doctor yesterday and had an ultrasound! It was awesome! We were able to see so much of the baby but didn't find out the gender while we were there. We were able to leave with a really neat picture of the baby's face. (The other was in a sealed envelope)
We went to my best friend's Casey house to wait to open the envelope with our family. We had a really nice turn out of about 30 people. Once everyone was there we all gathered together to hear the news.

And it is a............

Belly Picture and Gender Reveal Shower Update

So since I have grown and am actually showing since my last belly picture. He is a picture I took on Tuesday (18 weeks). I can not believe how big I look in these pictures and that I am actually putting them on here. But everyone says "Oh you will be so glad you took pictures" The sad thing is I am not even halfway there! I will really feel HUGE by the time 40 weeks rolls around.

Scott and I will now know the gender on Friday the 18th. That is the day we are going to the doctor. We had wanted to do our gender reveal that day originally but Scott's mom was going to be out of town. Unfortunately his grandmother fell and his mom had to cancel her vacation. But since the 25th was not the best day for us we are moving up the "shower". What we are going to do now is come home from the doctor to Casey's house and open the envelope with our family present. We are so READY to find out. I don't know how Scott ever thought we could wait until September!

Make Room for Baby

Well Scott and I finally cleared out the room that will be the nursery. Scott has been wanting to do it forever but I had been putting it off because I didn't want to move my computer. But today we moved the computer to our front bedroom and emptied out the room that will be the nursery. We also cleaned out 2 closets in the process. It really did not take that long at all it was just getting me to get motivated to do it.
I am really wanting to start on the nursery as soon as we find out what we are having. My bedding is finally at Babies R' us! I am almost 100% certain I am going to use the last ABC bedding I posted. But when I saw it online it was a little more boyish than it had looked online. Oh well! I have more than enough time.

SPRING BREAK!

I love being on Spring Break. I have gotten a lot accomplished around the house. I am cleaning, cooking every night and keeping up with the laundry! Oh Wait! That is what I am suppose to do all the time : )

I have also gotten a lot of work done for my Masters Class ( 2 quizzes, 1 final, 2 presentations and some work on my research project to be exact)

I read a Mary Higgins Clark book today!

AND I have been back at the park walking. I love to walk outside with Milly but it is hard to get into town to walk when I am working and I have class. My mom and I have walked everyday this week and are going to keep it up until the rain stops us.

The picture is of Milly after our walk. I can't wait to take Milly for walks with the baby!
