17 weeks and a peek at baby #3

baby boy!!!

We had our big ultrasound today.....baby #3 is a healthy, baby BOY!!! Bring on more cars, legos, GI Joes, and sporting equipment! We are so thrilled the baby is healthy and couldn't be happier that it's a boy. (Addie was there for this picture, but she was hiding behind me. She was a little disappointed that it wasn't a girl!)





At 17 weeks I'm feeling pretty good. The craziest thing about this pregnancy is that the morning sickness started around 12 weeks and every few days I get sick. I won't complain though-he's worth it! My cravings lately have been carbs, fruit-especially pineapple, fruit roll up type sweets (but I do get the organic kind without all the junk in them), and pizza. Aversions are meat of any kind (especially raw!), veggies, and water.

I've not gained much weight at all, which seems similar to my other pregnancies although I'm definitely showing. I love being pregnant and now that it's obvious to everyone it's so fun to talk about this newest blessing to people that I meet!


I can feel the little kicks and flutters daily and that makes me so happy!


It's hard to believe that we'll soon be a family of five! We are praying daily for God to prepare us all. We're so blessed and are loving every minute of life with these two cuties! What a great big sister and big brother they will be!

So excited for you!! You look fantastic and baby boy looks perfect. Hooray for boys!! Even though Addie may be a little disappointed now, she will soon realize how wonderful it is to have TWO brothers to protect her always. :)

Oh we are thrilled for you! Poor Addie, well at least she won't have to share her girl stuff with another girl.
