I am so behind on updates!! I know it's a poor excuse but by the time I get home from work I don't want to get on the computer. But, really I just need to suck it up and do it!
Well Novemebr has been a really exciting month for me.... I felt teh baby move for the first time and I turned the BIG 3-0!!
Mike took me out to the Melting Pot in Bellevue for my Birthday once again! It was so great! Everytime I go there I always eat way too too much(the only two times I've gone)! But, the food is so good and you just don't want to waste it. This year at the end along with our reguar dessert they brought out a little sample of different chocolate covered strawberries with a little brownie in the middle and a candle sticking out. It was so yummy!
Mom if you are reading this you and Larry were very MISSED and we will do this when you come over again for sure!
We also celebrated Thanksgiving this year over at the Davenports (Mike's Aunt Marie's). Which of course is always wonderful! The food was great and so was the company! I just love these guys! I can't wait for our Christmas get together!
NOW FOR THE GOOD STUFF!!
We had our 18wk and 5day Ultrasound today. I was so excited that the night before I didn't get to sleep until about 11:30pm because we would HOPEFULLY be finding out what we are having...
Which by the way is an 80% chance that it is a GIRL!
She was in a weird position, it was like she was sitting up. The sonographer was having a hard time trying even measuring the spine. But she said that she's been doing this for a few years and that she is 80% sure that it is a girl. She even pointed out the anatomy so taht I could see. Poor Mike couldn't even hear her, she talked really quitely.
I'm hoping when I go into see see my Dr. next week I can ask her if I can have another Ultrasound to be able to double check (just in case).
I will be updating everyone as well!
For those of you that woudl like to know we will be naming her Kyrsten Nicole.
Wow! I can't believie it! It looks pretty written down! So crazy!
The last couple of weeks have been really hard but, I know that God is with me every step of the way! I really appreciate all of your prayers! Please continue to keep Mike and I and Kyrsten in your prayers as we go through the rest of the Pregnancy!
"The Lord is my shepard, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of rightousness for His name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever." - Psalm 23
Until our next update.....

Movement
I can't believe I am already 16 weeks and 2days along! Just a few days away from the time we lost Baby Hale #1.
Now that I am this far along I am always thinking about the baby and wondering how he/she is doing.
I haven't had an ultrasound in a a couple of weeks but, I did hear the baby's heartbeat on Tuesday, November 10th at my Dr. appointment. The baby is for sure a mover because as soon as we found the heartbeat we lost it cause the baby would move somewhere else. Mike's grandma jokes that we are having a gymnast for a child! She may be right.
That same day just before we went to the appointment we stopped to get dinner. While Mike was in the restaurant I was out in the car sitting very still just thinking about how hungry I was (which is all the time) when I felt this rolling feeling in my abdomen. It was the weirdest feeling ever! It kind of made me sick to my stomach but it was so awesome. It went on for about two minutes and then Mike got into the car.
Since that night I can feel the baby move just after I have eaten food. Maybe because the little guy doesn't have as much room in there because my tummy is full! Now it just feels like popcorn popping in my stomach. It is the best thing in the world at this point! I can't wait until Mike can feel the baby move!
I have had a lot of firsts that I never got to experience in the first pregnancy and I feel so blessed to have the opportunity.
We will have an ultrasound with the Dr. in a couple of weeks. We are both praying that the baby is healthy and that the Dr. doesn't find anything wrong. Please if you read this continue to pray for us and the baby! I know you all have been praying all along because I feel the Lord's presence and His blessings and we thank you for it! Praise the Lord for this little miracle growing inside of me!

Yes we had another ultrasound! It was done last week at Philips Healthcare. We feel so incredibly blessed to be able to watch our little baby grow! It is one of the coolest things!
They weren't able to detect what what we are having just yet. But, I'm sure if they called us back in again soon we would for sure know.
We don't mind either way we just want a healthy baby! Most everyone that I know thinks we are having a boy so we will just have to wait and see.
What do you think?
