The Baby Bump...

Life is so good.
Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I have been soooo extremely happy!
There is so many fun moments in this little journey of becoming a momma....
some I considered the best days of my life!
***
The first ultrasound was truly amazing...I can't even describe the feeling you get when you see and hear your child's heartbeat for the first time ever! It makes is all so real!
***
The day we found out it was a boy....a sweet baby boy! Ryan was so, so excited....
he would of been happy with whatever we had, but he always said he wanted a boy first!
***
The day I felt our little baby kick....I loved that! It was the middle of the night, and I couldn't sleep....so, I got up and ate an orange (that's one of my cravings :) and then went back to bed. Then there it was, the first tiniest little nudge ever....but it was him!
***
And another fabulous moment was when we told our parents....
This was my mom's reaction.
I wish we had a camera when we told Ryan's parents...
it would be just as great of a picture!
***
This has been so fun!
I can't even wait to be a momma! I daydream about it every time I get a spare moment. We have been getting ready little by little. The baby's room has been cleared out and is ready to be painted. I have it all figured out in my head what it's going to look like! I will have to post all my ideas and see what you all think.
***
And here's our little baby in the making...
watch as that baby bump grows!






And there's more to come...
3 more months to go!
***
Holy cats....ahhhhh!
So much to do!

Ok, I think you must be the most adorable mommy ever!! It's refreshing to hear all the joy that you are experiencing. To be honest, I needed to read it!!! I'm about 9 weeks pregnant and have been terribly ill - All I do is complain and I must say, you've reminded me a lot about the joy of this process and given me much to look forward to again. Good Luck Karen - you are as cute as ever and I can' wait to see your little guy!! Be sure to get to posting ASAP when you have him!
