16 Week Baby Check In

We had our 16 week baby check up this week.  No pictures of the baby to share with you this time, but everything measured great.  We were able to hear the baby's hearbeat once again.  Fast little thumper.  The good news...we get to find out on November 22 nd what we are having!  So we are going to start a baby stats trivia game real soon.  Stay tuned.  In the meantime, some of you have been asking for a baby bump picture.  Not the greatest and not sure why we mothers to be must document these pictures but here you have it.  I've included some pictures of our latest adventures as well.

Utah Trip

McKay and I got back from our visiting Utah a few weekends ago.  There were multiple reasons for this trip. 
1) To see the family, of course
2) To go to the BYU vs UW game
3) To show my brother Tim BYU in all of its splendor

The trip was a success by all three accounts.  It was great to spend time with Tim, something that doesn't happen as often as I'd like it too these days.  We had an awesome time at the game surrounded by UW fans...good thing we won!  And, we had a fabulous time catching up with the family and throwing in a little round of minature golf  to boot.  As always the time went by way too fast...but Thank You to everyone for making it such a fun trip!

Week 7 Ultrasound

I'm a few weeks behind in updating you all with our latest adventures and the latest baby news.  Sorry about that.  I am currently at Week 11 and Wednesday of this week, we get to see our baby again!  But I thought I would post our Week 7 Ultrasound Picture for your viewing pleasure.

The most fascinating part of this Ultrasound was the baby was moving...like CRAZY!  Of course I can't feel it yet with it being so small still, but it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen.  We like to think it was doing a little dance just for mom and dad.  As long as baby is healthy...it can dance its little heart out!
