Waiting for...

Our Baby Boy!

I can't believe I haven't posted in 6 weeks! But wait, in between working, and keeping a home & husband happy, not to mention trying hard to take care of myself and sleeping as many hours in a day that I can when would I have updated? :) I say that with nothing but happiness for the life Brock & I have created! Today I was juts sitting here amazed at how different my life is now than say, 2 or 3 years ago! Who knew I would be a wife & a mommy-to-be?

Our life has been hectic, in the best of ways! We are never ever home, but it's because our lives are so full of equal amounts of work & play! We spend a lot of time with both of our families, and as much time with friends as we can fit in. It seems to work for us, but when we do get the chance to just stay home & enjoy eachother we relish every second of it.

Let's talk about baby Watkins for a minute. First off, we are having a baby BOY! I of course, am eating my words because even after she showed us "the goods" I thought that we were having a girl! I just was so stuck in my thinking. The hubby of course was practically beating his fists on his chest! Man make son :) However, now we are both beyond excited and ready to meet our little man! It was so nice to start calling him by his name, which is Hunter Brock Watkins, after his Daddy. I love to hear Brock call him "son", and tell him that Mommy & Daddy love him to pieces. My favorite part is the planning. We have picked the furniture & bedding so far. We, well mostly just I, have the decor picked out and it feels good to be able to start doing something.

As far as physical changes, his little ultrasound picture was so different at 15 weeks than at 7 weeks! I mean, duh! We could clearly see his spine, and brain, and even his little toes. Of course, the tech saw what led her to believe it was a boy! Which is great, and I can point out his wittle nose! I can't feel him yet, distinctly anyways. He still refuses to let me eat, but I make myself for his sake, and I am getting a little energy back even though I still wont refuse a nap! All & all being pregnant, is starting to be fun! My tummy is round and I love when people want to feel or just rub! I am definately not a paranoid mommy, yet!

Keep posted, the enxt few weeks should be lots of fun for Mommy & Baby!
