November Catch Up

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 November has been a really exciting month for me.... I felt the 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 regular 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.....
