Welcome to the 2nd Trimester... Baby Young is 14 Weeks!

Three months have gone by since we first found out that we were expecting. It makes me excited and anxious at the same time to think that little Baby Young (Lil Bit) will be here in just six months. I cannot stop thinking about labor and the process of pushing a baby out! It terrifies me! I received some much needed wisdom: to look at the bigger picture and the happiness and joy of holding our baby which makes the few hours of uncomfort worth it.

Sara had a Dr.'s appointment on Tuesday 7/10/11 which consisted of a sonogram to measure the neck lobe to check for down syndrome and a blood test to check for spina bifita. Baby would not cooperate for the ultrasound technician, which was fine because I got to lay there for about 45 minutes and watch lil bit move around on the screen, still can't believe that that active baby on the screen is in my tummy and I cannot feel a thing! I told the technician that it was ok if she could not see the neck lobe because It didn't matter if this baby had down's or not, we would love it either way. She said that the baby probably knows that I feel this way and that is why he/she isn't cooperating!!! A few minutes later the tecnician gave me a piece of chocolate to eat to see if that would help calm the baby down. Sure enough she was able to get the picture she needed, thankfully she said that everything looked fine! :)

14 week sonograms- feet, hands and profile!

This weeks cravings: Ice Cold Water, Orange Juice-right from the container, Ice Cream (any flavor), and most of all Roasted Tomato & Mozzarella Panini’s.

Bought my 1^st Pair of Maternity Pants on my lunch break because I could not breathe at work!

Due Date

Welcome to 2013.....2013, the year we were so excited to become parents, have a family and welcome our daughter Madison into the world. When you first find out your "due date" the day is forever engraved in your mind, your body, and your soul. You tell everyone the date and circle every calendar that you own. You count down the weeks until your due date and say it countless times as it's usually the first thing someone asks you when they find out that you're pregnant. For us January 10, 2013 is that date. There is no guarantee that she would have actually been born on this exact date, but as this date gets closer I can't stop wondering when her actual date of arrival would have been. January 10th, it seemed like a lifetime away when I saw my first positive pregnancy test on May 4th 2012. I have to say that the 32 and 1/2 weeks that I was pregnant flew by very quickly.... and here we are now into January and I feel this empty feeling inside as I...

My Forever Child

I received my beautiful custom charm necklace in the mail today from My Forever Child . My necklace was made with Madison's actual footprints which were laser etched from the scan below. I am so thrilled with the way it turned out. This brought a smile to my day! Madison's Footprints I smile every time I look at the second toe on the right foot... it is exactly like Mikes! This beautiful poem was also included with the charm...

Beach, July 4th and 4 Months!

Not sure where this past month has gone? We've been keeping busy with trips to the park, the mall, the supermarket and even took a small beach trip! Mason is changing everyday, he continues to amaze me every morning when I wake up to his sweet smiles. His 4 month check up went great, weighing in at 15.8 pounds and 24.8 inches long! (in the 54th %) He is wearing size 2 diapers now and mostly 6 month clothes. Today He actually rolled over from his back to tummy! Eating has become a little challenging because Mason has become so alert of his surroundings he does not want to concentrate on eating, that and a little teething makes for a fun feeding! We received the ok to start some solids and oatmeal by spoon, as well as bananas, avocado, sweet potatoes and peas. Mason enjoyed his first beach trip, we loved every minute of the fun in the sun and sand! He really is a water baby. Sweet Cailyn enjoyed playing with Mason and reading him books too! ...
