Hamburger! (It's a girl!)

Had our anatomy scan! Everything is looking great! My placenta moved up and out of range from the cervix in a very short time (a miracle of God by the prayers of those bikers I talked about in a previous blog) and we got a shot of what's supposed to be our baby girl...a "classic hamburger shot" as a friend on facebook lovingly called it! So Dreaming in pink, bows and ribbons... Here are some shots of my lil sweet heart!





Highs- Finding out we're having a girl!

Highs- FInding out the placenta has moved!

Lows- NO SUCH THING TODAY!!! xoxo

Construction Theme Birthday Parties & 18 Week Bun!

Please forgive my blogging silence! It has been a CRAZY few weeks!
Luca’s 2nd birthday party was a great success! I think all the Kids had fun! We had a construction birthday theme! Between me and my BFF Layla we were able to pull it off. Here are a few picts (more to come later).


*Dirt Cake made by the lovely Layla!*


*Caution Signs marked different stations for the kids to play with! This was the "wet paint section"


*Dirt Cupcakes by Layla*




*The Wrecking Ball and wall for the kids to knock over!*


*Favors and Construction Hats!*


*My Big 2 Year Old!*

I have to say Luca has never slept so well!


I find out what baby # 2 is next Tuesday! I’m thinking boy but we’ll see!! No names yet so I’m taking suggestions that go with “Luca” have strong meanings and aren’t TOO trendy.

Here’s my 18 week belly shot!




I Will write more once things settle down (or really when Scott’s done with all the FE exam prep), it’s been crazy to chase Luca around by myself… SCOTT if you are reading this you are NOT allowed to die EVER!

Highs: FINALLY getting over morning sickness and at 18 weeks feeling like my normal self again! This is a feeling I never had while pregnant with Luca! It’s weird to have a belly but not FEEL pregnant! I’ve had some movement, but I’ve been too busy to notice when/how much!

Lows: Scott having class every weekend/all weekend long the last few weeks. :(

Xoxox,

Nikki
