32 weeks

32 Weeks! I can't believe it. I have a doc appointment on the 9th and will have an ultrasound to see how big Keeton is. Can't wait to see my man again:)

Keeton in 3-D

We had a 3D/4D on Friday and look at those chubby cheeks! This is pretty much the only face shot we got of him. His legs and arms were all wound around up there and it was hard to get a good picture. But seriously...look how peaceful and comfy he looks. As of last Friday he weighed in at 3lbs 12oz. (About the 60th percentile.) I can't believe I only have 9 weeks left. It doesn't seem real.

Happy Birthday to ME!!

Well, I am officially old as dirt! Turning 30 was hard and the year went by so fast that I don't think I even got used to saying I was 30. So now I am the big 31. The other side of 30. Wow. I still feel like I am 17 sometimes. It feels like yesterday that I was being arrested outside a Best Western Motel. JUST KIDDING-that was for you mom! I specifically remember thinking how old my sister was when she turned 23. haha. What I wouldn't give to live at a constant age of 23.

Well the good thing is that 31 is going to be an eventful year and I am looking forward to it!

28 weeks

28 weeks marks the first week that I actually feel physically preggo! I even feel like I am starting to waddle. Sleeping has become...interesting. I'm like a pancake.

Left Side, Right Side, Left Side, Right Side.

After much debate and going back and forth on the issue, I decided to get the H1N1 vaccine. Not only was I worried about the lack of testing on pregnant women but I was also concerned about whether to get the shot with the preservative or not. The only place that was offering the shot in the area was WITH the preservative. I had already had my seasonal flu shot at my OB's office and it was not preservative free. They said it contained as little mercury as a can of tuna.

With all the stories about how pregnant women are dying or their babies are dying from H1N1 complications AND with the urging of my OB, my instincts told me to go for it. I don't what the right decision is. Whatever will be will be. I will just trust in God and pray he puts a shield of protection around little Keeton.

In other news, Jason and I attended a Breast Feeding Class last week and it was really great! Very informative and made this experience seem even more real. It definitely reinforced how much we want to be successful at breastfeeding. I do have to say though, it was a little disturbing at first to see an early 90's video montage of a million breasts being forced into baby's mouths. I usually love movie montages but this was a tad to much.

Things are going great right now and I feel more and more blessed each day. I can't wait to hold this little guy in my arms and kiss his sweet little pudgy cheeks.

Here are a few things that Jason and I think he likes and dislikes already

(I know we are just projecting, but it's fun!):

Likes: Peter Cetera

Dislikes: Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA"

(which is sad because that is one of my Karaoke staples)
