It's a GIRL!!!

About a week late on updating the blog! We found out last Saturday the 6th that we are having a girl! I was  on the table and saw it before they even told us. I yelled and threw my arms up in the arm...Justin just stared at the screen. I think he is nervous :) He should be!!! As soon as we found out baby was a she we went to lunch and bought a few little outfits. I am way excited about the results.


Being that we live in Hawaii baby stores, maternity stores, baby stuff in general is limited. Almost everything is very Hawaiian to me- not what I want. So! First big purchase was this past weekend. We have known what stroller we have wanted for awhile. Justin even likes it so it was a sale for sure! He talked me into getting the base of the stroller in black and he told me it will be fine since she will have pink things to hang out with in the stroller (and the stroller will be reuseable this way). I agreed and got a pink car seat. Go to http://www.quinny.com/ot-en/strollers/buzz-4 to check it out. I love it.

This week also marks the first time I have felt bigger flutters! I was waking up the other morning and felt it while laying on my left side. It was such a weird, cool, exciting feeling. I think I have felt it some more this week-I'm ready for a big movement!

In other news: this weekend marked Winston's first birthday of joining our family! His birthday is in December, but Justin bought him for me last year for Valentines. He is a little stinker :) He has been sleeping with us-which I said I would never do, but it's so hard looking at him in his cage. He sleeps right next to me every night. I love him.

This week marks 20 weeks! WOW, half way. Craziness. We have an appointment with the doctor and then an ultrasound next week that Justin will finally be able to go to. Off to grab something to eat :)

Heartburn or Heart Attack?

I think I have heartburn tonight for the first time (since being pregnant). One time in college I thought I was having a heart attack. My poor friends Meggie and Megan took me to the ER only to find out hours later, multiple tests and one green drink later it was heartburn- that was the first experience. They won't let me forget it either! Anyways, we ate dinner and sat down to watch the DVRed shows from the weekend and it started. Boo.

Saturday we are going to find out if it's a boy or girl!! I am so ready to find out. My friends are work are taking bets/polls on what it is. So far- just about ALL boys except ONE vote for a girl! :) I thought boy for awhile, then I didn't know, and now I looked at old wives tales again and think it's a boy! All I know is I am ready for Saturday!
