It's a GIRL!!

Well, our little 'bun in the oven' is certainly growing and appears to be right on track. After our 20 week sonogram in January we now know that our baby is a little GIRL! She's already beautiful and we can't wait to meet her. I wish I could watch her on a daily basis inside my belly, especially after watching her move around during our 20 week sonogram. We were able to see more than I have expected.


January 11, 2013 - 20 weeks & 3 days
 
I am 28 weeks today, with only 12 more weeks left to go. I am offically in my 3rd trimester. In the beginning I felt like I was going to be pregnant FOREVER and she was never going to get here but now I'm wondering where the time went. I can't wait to meet baby Drake but I have so much to do before she gets here so hopefully she'll keep baking for now. This afternoon Carey and I get to go in for our 3D/4D sonogram so I'm excited to see our sweet baby and watch her move. It is so amazing to watch one of God's beautiful creations grow inside of me. We are truly blessed and can't wait to meet our baby girl in May.

Love, Marriage, then BABY...

It's official, Carey and I are expecting our first baby at the end of May. My due date is May 28, 2013 to be exact. I am officially at the halfway mark - 20 weeks pregnant and 20 weeks to go! Our baby weighs about 10.5 ounces now. Baby Drake is also around 6.5 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel - the length of a banana. This week is a very exciting and fun week for us because we get to find out on Friday if baby Drake is a girl or boy.

Carey and I are very excited, anxious and nervous, as most parents are when expecting their first baby. As my belly continues to grow, it becomes more realistic that it will not just be the two of us anymore, come May. It is so cool and kind of weird at the same time, when I feel baby Drake kicking in my belly. The baby is not big enough yet for anyone to actually see baby Drake kicking but I can definiately feel the baby kicking.  We continue to pray that our baby is and will be healthy upon arrival.
