Almost there!

Frank and I went to a park to take our "belly pictures." I had the greatest time while my friend Bethany set up cute things for me to do and captured some really great memories.



Here are a couple pictures that were taken. I haven't gotten them all yet but I thought I would share a a couple that I got. I am almost 35 weeks along. I can't wait to meet my little man. I had a doctor apt today and he said if he had to guess Michael's weight right now he would guess about 7 pounds. Frank was 7 pounds when he was born and I was 6 pounds, so I was kinda hoping that would be the case with Michael. I guess we will see. :)

Valentines Day of relaxation.

I know this is a little late.... but this house is running a little behind!! :)

Unlike last year and our three hour disaster dinner we decided this year we would stay home together and organize Michael's room. We had a lot of fun cuddling and just hanging out the two of us. Frank brought home flowers, chocolate, a super soft teddy bear, and a really romantic card. It was a perfect day!

4D Pictures

This was probably one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my whole life!! My child in 4D. It was an awesome experience to witness my baby moving around in my belly up close. We got pictures a cd with pictures, a dvd, and a bunch of printed pictures. When I got home last night I watched the dvd and I just couldn't believe that was my baby moving around in there. Then when my hubby got home we watched it again and you should have seen the sparkle in his eye. When it was over he said "babe, we really are having a baby." I looked at him and laughed and said "really you couldn't tell by the baby bump that use to be my belly, and all those kicks you feel." I was teasing but it was so funny!! Here are some of the 4D pictures of our baby Michael.


Here is my little boy. So comfy and cozy in there.


We saw him open and close his eyes and his mouth several times, that was very neat!


I can't wait to see you in a few short months! Love you baby boy!!

Christmas morning

Here I am Christmas morning with the best gift my husband and I could have ever given each other.... Michael James McGuigan!! Things are really good here, we are both working a ton. The Lord is so good though cause we have a lot more time with each other than we ever have in our almost 10 years of being together. Both are job hours are really similar so it is such a blessing!! We have put almost all of the baby furniture together and are excited about nesting. Please continue to pray for us!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Half way there!

I am officially 20 weeks today. I'm so excited and have really loved this whole process. I am still thanking the Lord everyday that I haven't gotten sick yet. We are having so much fun when we go to stores picking out a cute outfit. I haven't had any weird cravings yet but I will sure tell you what they are when I have them. For a while we couldn't have any seasoned chicken cause the smell of it would well.... make me not feel so good.

This is me and my mommy on Thanksgiving. I have a lot to be thankful for!!!



Me and the hubby on Thanksgiving. I can't wait to see him running around chasing and playing with Michael, he's going to be such a great dad!!! Love you sweetie peteie!!!



This is a picture of my and my sissy at Thanksgiving. I am defiantly showing now!!



Now that I am 20 weeks I am feeling Michael moving soooooooo much!!! I think there is a sports player in my belly. :) He hasn't started kicking to where we can feel it on the outside yet. Poor Frank every time I say he's moving and kicking he wants to feel it. I have reassure him that it will happen soon. Here is a little of what I have learned is happening in my 20th week.

You will notice that your baby is more and more active (often in the evenings), and may even be able to see some movements. The growing uterus is pushing up against your lungs and pressing your tummy outward. Your navel may pop out and stay that way until after birth. The baby is about 10 in (25cm) long. Sebum from the sebaceous glands mixes with skin cells and begins to form the protective vernix, which clings to the lanugo all over the baby's skin, especially on the hairier parts and in creases.

I love learning all kinds of different things about his growth and what he is doing in there. I pray that everyone is having a great week and just remember it's half way to the weekend so smile!!!!! :)
