Bad Blogger

My apologies for not blogging in a while. Things have just been absolutely crazy! Work has been so busy for both Manny and I. I feel like I finally have my head above water this week!
On to the more important topics....my sweet little boy. I am 20 weeks this week. So we are half way there!!!!! He and I are both doing great! He is growing more and more. Over this past weekend my belly seemed to begin to pop. I just love it! For now at least! He is quite the mover and shaker though. During the day while I am sitting at my desk he is constantly moving around. Manny has felt him which was super neat! Right now those little kicks are sweet and soft. We'll see how I feel once he starts getting bigger! :)
Last weekend I was able to get away with my best friend and head to Charleston for the weekend. Can I just tell you that God went before that trip in so many way. It was such a great weekend. She and I had both had horrible weeks so we were really anxious to get away. It was a beautiful weekend. We talked and talked and talked and went for walks and laid on the beach. All in all it was HEAVEN! Such a treat to get away. Not to mention we are both pregnant which gave us tons of things to laugh at throughout the weekend.
We are getting ready to start an extremely busy month. We literally have something every weekend. My hope is that it will make the month fly by and I will be one more month closer to meeting my sweet baby.
I can't wait to meet him. To see who he looks like, to smell him, to kiss his soft cheeks, to call him by name, to see his sweet face every morning, to see if he has hair or not, to see Manny with his son for the very first time, to introduce him as our son and to see his little personality. The list could go on and on and on, but I'll stop there. Bottom line is that I can't wait to have him here!
I will be sure to post belly pics very soon!

It's a...

BOY! We went to our ultrasound appointment today and found out that we are having a little boy! This whole time I have thought girl, but today when we got to the doctor's office I told Manny that I thought it was a boy and sure enough he is! The minute the ultrasound tech put the wand on my belly you could see that it was a boy.

And an active boy is he! He was just kicking his little legs all around. He even sucked his little thumb for us. He likes his hands up by his face. He even did a little flip for us. It was one of the most amazing things that we have ever experienced. Watching this little one swim around in me. I just kept thinking about how good God is. How he knew about this baby before he was even a thought in our minds. How he is already taking care of him. You look at this little guy on the screen and can't imagine how people can deny God being God. How else does something this perfect and amazing happen!

She also told me that I am actually 18 weeks instead of 17, but they are keeping my due date the same for now. She told me to expect to go early though! So we'll see when this little man wants to enter the world!

For the time being we are just going to enjoy this fun news! I'll post Ultra Sound pics tomorrow!

My cup runneth over!
