Red Wings Game 1

So on Saturday was the Coyotes home opener and by chance it was against the DETROIT RED WINGS baby!!! We went with my step dad and it was a great time that was had by all!! The coyotes did loose, however that means the WINGS won. Ryan bought me this redwing shirt that on the tummy say's ' Future Redwing Fan' I love this shirt and Lena got to represent, it was really cute. She was very active at the game and was kicking up a storm and I enjoyed every moment of it.

Here are a few pictures from our game night!!

Our Ultrasound got moved to this FRIDAY. I am really excited to see Lena and I am even more excited to see how far along she is measuring. I can't wait to see her!! I will post as soon as we get results!!

25 Weeks

So the last 10 weeks have been crazy busy for us, we had our 6 month check up and unfortunetly Ryan wasn't able to come. I was 24 weeks when I went in and my Dr measured me at 28 weeks. I am under on my weight gain so she knows I am not gaining to quickly. It could be we were off on conception or something else. We have an ultrasound on Nov 1st to confirm.

So if I am ahead of schedule then it is looking like we might have a end of December baby!! Lena's nursery is almost done and everything is starting to come together. Hockey starts on Saturday and we can't wait for the 1st game. I will keep you posted after the ultrasound on Nov 1st.

What's going on with Lena:
That oh-so-handy sense of equilibrium is kicking in, and baby's learning to distinguish right side up from upside down.

Your baby's ears are fully functional now, and he or she may even blink in reaction to a loud noise. The brain is growing rapidly. If you could look inside your uterus, you'd see a well-proportioned head and body.


How far along? 25 weeks

How big is baby? The estimate is right around 13 1/2 inches and about 1.5-2 pounds. The comparison to an eggplant.

Sleep: I am sleeping pretty good, I am still up about 2-3 times a night to go to the bathroom

Best moment this week: Having Ryan feel her moving around.

Movement: Oh my, she is sooooo active she kicks all the time and is constantly moving around. Lena is most active first thing in the morning and at night right around dinner and just as I am starting to fall asleep.

Food cravings: ICE CREAM, I love it and can't get enough of it. I find myself wanting it every night and I was told it's a good source of calcium so in my mind its good for us. hehe

Gender: Girl!

Belly Button in or out? In, but is looking like it is going to pop any moment now.

What I miss: Sleeping through the night, being able to shave my legs without missing patches of hair.

What I am looking forward to: Ryan and I have our Hospital tour in a few weeks and I am getting excited as the due date nears.

Milestones: Feeling her kick, Room is almost finished, ZERO strecth marks and my weight gain is below what it should be (Dr is NOT concerned at all)

Weekly Wisdom: Enjoy this time and never take anything for granted.

25 Weeks Pregnant!!!

Camping 2010

Ryan and I went camping over the weekend and it was an AMAZING time. I was nervous about going since I am 6 months pregnant, but it went really good and it was extra special because I actually felt Lena Kick from the outside and Ryan also got to feel her!!!

Ryan forgot to bring the battery to the camera but our friends took some really great pictures. We went to Happy Jack, Arizona and it was in the 70's during the day and the low 50's at night. it rained for a few hours the 1st night but then for the rest of the time it was picture perfect.

We did some target shooting and relaxed with friends and played camping games. I am sooooo glad we all got to go and we are excited for our next trip!!! Here are a few pics from our trip.
