Well, I am 18 weeks along now, and I finally managed to scan and post my 16 week ultrasound. These are actually upside down, but you can still make them out a little. The top pic looks like a little alien...yes, that is the baby, aka "gummy bear"! And the bottom is a profile , you can see the head and the little spine if you look closely. We seem to be right on track and both doing well, hopefully we will find out if it's a boy or girl in January!!
On a different note, we are having so much fun preparing for Christmas! Cooper is getting excited and starting to figure out that Christmas is a big deal and he is having so much fun "helping" me cook, wrap, deliver gifts, and reading Christmas books every night. We've broke in our copy of "Night Before Christmas" and he also loves "The Crippled Lamb" which is really sweet if you're looking for a good kids' Christmas book. And, of course, we have watched every Christmas movie we own (and we have many) at least twice if not five dozen times! We are looking forward to celebrating Christ's birthday with family and friends! So, this Saturday, let the party begin!

Happy Thanksgiving
We have Thanksgiving pretty much all weekend, it seems. Yesterday, we hosted Dennis's mom's side of the family and this weekend, we get to visit Grandma and celebrate her 90th birthday, too! Cooper was so excited to have guests that he was wound up....but, after everyone left and it was just the three of us left to relax, it didn't take him long to unwind. He got comfy watching a movie with Daddy and we were all in bed well before 9:00!

13 Weeks
Well, we are just trucking right into getting ready for the holidays and I am finally feeling good just in the last few days! I am hoping it's not short, but it lasts a few months...I don't think I can handle feeling queasy for 9 months! I had a baby check up last Friday and the little "gummy bear" is doing great. I got to see the little wiggle worm on ultrasound and boy is he or she active!! Hopefully, we will find out the sex in December!

Fall Stuff
We got a huge load of rock for our driveway today and Cooper thought it was just for him to play on!

Fall Camping in Branson
We had fun in Branson last weekend! We camped out for a few days with the Stotts family. We did some shopping and hit a pumpkin patch while we were there and took in the views of fall!

Pumpkin Patch
Coop and I had a "mommy and me" day today at the pumpkin patch! He was so thrilled to go on the hayride and pick a big pumpkin! We had lots of fun picking out some pumpkins and playing in "Pumpkin Land" with the games and hay maze. Even a little sporadic rain, couldn't ruin it!

We're Expecting!!!

We are so excited! Cooper will have a little brother or sister in May! We went to the doctor on Friday and had a great ultrasound. Our little "gummy bear" was very active and did a little dance for us! I am 9 weeks along and feeling it right now. I never know when I will feel sick, just hits me at random, but me and baby are both healthy and we are thrilled! I'm not sure Cooper realizes what's going on yet. When I showed him the ultrasound pictures, he tried to put them on my belly!
