She's getting bigger!

Little Miss Addison is getting bigger and bigger! I love seeing my belly grow and watching her dance around in there. It is so fun to watch her respond to Kyle and I! Our families are so excited for her arrival and love every chance they get to see and feel her move as well. When we found out we were pregnant it felt like 9 months would take forever to go by. Now we are down to 10 weeks! I can't believe how quickly time has gone. She will be here before we know it!

My best friend Amanda and I! Can you guess who's pregnant?! LOL!

My wonderful husband and I! He takes such good care of us! 27 weeks in this picture!

Gramma feeling Addison dance around! She is already one deeply loved little girl!

29 weeks! I love having a pregnant belly! I know I will miss feeling her dance around but I can't wait to meet her! We have our last ultrasound in 4 weeks and then she will hopefully be here 6 weeks after that! Thank you for your continued prayers!

Baby Mock!!!

Wow we have not been very good at this blog thing lately! I have no clue how many people read it but we are getting back in the swing of things. A lot has changed since February! We moved to a duplex the beginning of April and shortly after found out we were expecting our first child! We weren't necessarily trying but we weren't doing anything to prevent it either. I have wanted to be a mommy for so long and was elated when the tests came back positive!

I have been planning for a long time how I wanted to tell our families. We told them the weekend before Easter. We bought our mom's the Grandmother Willow Tree. Everyone was very surprised and so happy that we are going to be bringing a new little one to the family! At this point I was feeling great! I was 6 weeks along in the picture below!

At my 16 week appt they did a blood test that came back abnormal. So we had an ultrasound to check and make sure everything was okay. It was perfectly fine! I was just not as far along as my doctor thought I was. I was only 14 weeks! It was God's way of letting us see our little one sooner than we thought. It was breathtaking to see him/her moving around and hear his/her heart beat! After seeing him/her this time we were anxiously awaiting our next ultrasound appt when we would find out if we were having a boy or girl! Below is our first picture of our precious baby!

Around 10 weeks I really started feeling sick. And I was sick all day long. It wasn't very much fun but I knew it was totally worth it. Thankfully around 19 weeks it just went away one day! It was so much fun when my belly finally started to look like there was a baby in there! Below I am at 17 weeks!

Kyle is a huge Red Sox fan and when I started dating him I became one too! We knew that no matter if the baby was a boy or a girl, there was not doubt that he/she would be a Red Sox fan! I was so excited to get this shirt and proudly support our team! And show off my bump! It felt good to go out to eat again and enjoy what I was eating since I wasn't sick anymore. Below we are waiting to eat at Red Lobster at 21 weeks!

At my 22 week appt we had our second ultrasound. We were hopefully going to find out today if we were going to have a boy or girl. Again I was amazed at the little life that was growing inside me. This is one of my favorite pictures! Such a tiny little footprint!

Of course I thought it would be wonderful to have a little girl but it really didn't matter what God blessed us with first. The ultrasound tech started our appt and the first thing she did was determine the sex of the baby. Tears instantly came when she told us that we were having a little girl! My mind rolled with thoughts of what life would be like with my precious daughter! We already knew what we wanted to name the baby whether it was a boy or girl.

We can't wait for Addison Lane to join our family around December 14!

Over Labor Day weekend we took one last getaway before Addison gets here. We went up to Saugatuck, MI and had the most wonderful, relaxing weekend. It was the best Babymoon we could have planned! Below I am getting quite round at 25 weeks!

I decided that I am going to make a conscious effort to keep up with this blog. I want to keep things documented because I know that I will start to forget as life gets even busier in the next few months. So for those of you that still take a look at what's going on in our life, I hope you enjoy!

It's Been Forever!

I know it's been a long time since we have updated so for anyone who reads this I thought I would.

Kyle and I are doing wonderfully! We still live in Defiance, OH and are enjoying all the time we spend together. Kyle was called back to Defiance Metal Products in September and is currently working 2nd shift. I don't like that shift very much but we are so thankful for his job. Please keep him in your prayers as he is still applying for jobs in his career field of Sports Management. We know the perfect job is out there we are just getting anxious for that time.

I started working at Dental Excellence of Napoleon for Dr. Carpenter on November 16 and am really enjoying my new job. I am currently learning everything that the front desk entails. When I am well trained there I will move to the back and start that adventure. God has blessed me with some wonderful new friends and a great work environment.

Theo, our dog, turned 1 on January 26. He brings us lots of joy as he is a playful and cuddly little guy. I look forward to seeing him when I get home from work every evening.

In August of 2009 we traded in my old 95 Grand Prix and got a 2006 Malibu Maxx. I love it and it's the perfect car for me. Kyle and I enjoyed celebrating the holidays with our families and seeing some family members that we hadn't seen in awhile.

We are looking forward to this summer when we will make a trip to Pittsburgh, PA for a friends wedding and hopefully a trip for our 2nd anniversary in July! I personally cannot wait for the warm weather!

Thank you for your continued prayers as we continue on with what God has planned for us. I hope to post some pictures for you soon. God bless you!
