Pure Bliss

I'm not sure there is a sweeter sound out there then the heart beat of your unborn child. Ed and I had an OB appointment this morning and had the chance to hear our baby and I am happy to report that all is well. The heart beat is strong which is music to my ears. :)

I'm a day shy of 16 weeks and I have to say, I'm feeling great. My first trimester symptoms are almost completely gone and I am in what they call the "honeymoon" phase of the pregnancy. Luckily, I have not gained much weight (only 1 pound so far!) but my belly is starting to show signs of the peanut inside. I am exclusively in maternity pants ~ which by the way are SO much more comfortable ~ and am looking forward to the next few weeks of baby growth.

Next month is a big month for us. On October 21st we will have our 20 week sonogram where the technician will do all sorts of measuring to make sure the baby's growth is on track. But even more exciting...we will be able to find out the sex!! We are those people that need to know so once we know, you will know. :)

In the mean time, we will continue to look at nursery furniture and planning out the room. It's unbelievable how many cribs there are out there! We did find the glider we want along with eh dresser/changing table so as soon as we finalize our crib decision, the order will be placed. The closet is in good shape so I will share details on it very soon as well as the paint wars that are currently taking place between Ed and I. :)
