It's a BOY!!

What an exciting day! i had a smile stuck on my face all day long!! We started the ultrasound and the tech showed us the head, the arms, the legs then she said,"Oh here is a penis!" Matt had the biggest smile on his face! We got lots of pictures and she made us a DVD. The DVD is pretty cool, you can see him moving around a lot. His legs were crossed at the ankles again. Just chillin!

His name is Caleb Joseph McAllister. Matt is exited to call him CJ.

Heres is a picture of his goods! you have to look for the little arrow.


This is a picture of him looking at us. A little creepy but cute at the same time. Matt still thinks he looks like an alien in this picture! His face is on the left.


This is my favorite picture. Its the best I have of his profile. you can see his ribs in this picture too. I cant wait to hold him and kiss this little face!


The tech said everything looked good. They might move my due date. Not by much, her screen said my estimated due date was now August 6th instead of 16th. She said we would just watch him and see if he just had a growth spurt!

It was so hard to go to work after this! I couldn't concentrate! I wanted to be out shopping! I'm not even sure what I want to buy but I NEED to buy something blue this weekend!!

Matt said we might be able to pull some still shots off the DVD, then they should be a little more clearer!

Love you all!

Kelly & Caleb

Tonight when I get home

Hi friends and family!

I will be updating my blog tonight when I get home from work. I already have the pictures scanned in but they are on the desktop at home. Hang tight and check back! Its worth the wait!! :)

19 weeks!

19 weeks! Almost 1/2 way there. Belly is getting bigger and every once in a while I feel a flutter! It almost feels like gas bubbles but everyone tells me its not! I cant wait to feel it more.
I feel good. I have this abnormal amount of snot! I blow and blow and blow my nose. Dr. Morris says its because of all the extra blood in my body. The baby center website says our little one may be able to her us now!
Here is the 19 week picture.



We will be talking soon! This is going to be one of the most exciting weeks of my life!!
Until then love to you all

Kelly and the large heirloom tomato!

I love suprises!

Hi everyone!

So today was my monthly Dr appointment. Just the standard pee in a cup and listen to the heartbeat. I got to the office at 9:30 this morning, they called me back right away. I sat in the room for almost an hour all by myself! Dr. Morris came in said she was so sorry, then she said she forgot the heart doppler thing. I thought she was going to leave but instead she said "lets just do an ultra sound!" OK! I got to see my baby! we tried to get a sneak peek between the legs but my kid was laying there with his/her legs crossed at the ankles! It was so cute!! I saw toes! When I compare the last ultra sound from 8 weeks to this one from 17.5 weeks so much has changed! its a little person inside me! I am so excited for the "real" ultra sound in 2 weeks. Dr. Morris said we will see so much more then!

I will scan in a pic or two when I get home. I have been just staring at it all day trying to imagine what s/he is going to look like. I better get back to work!

one excited mommy-to-be!

17 weeks

Alright here is a pic. I promise I will TRY to post a picture a week. This one isn't that good since nobody was here to take it! I had to figure out the self timer, then figure out where to stand. After about 20 mistakes this was the best one I got then I gave up!





It seemed like all of a sudden I had a belly. Its like it came out of nowhere! This week the baby is the size of a hand spread out. I should be able to feel the baby move anytime now. I can't wait for the flutter in my belly!

Until next time, Love to you all!

Kelly

17 more days!!

17 days until my ultra sound! I am so excited I can't stand it!

It finally happened, I turned 30. I had a great birthday. My office at work was decorated with a ton of 30's stuff and my office got me a gift cert to Gene Juarez! I'm excited to use that! Matt took me to Victoria, BC. the Cadys came too. Tia and I shopped and the boys attempted to golf in the snow! We had a great time.

I promise promise promise to post pictures when I get home. My belly is growing! I cant button some of my pants now. Thank God for the bella band!! So instead of lots of spit in my mouth I have switched to dry eyes. This is the strangest thing. Most days my eyes just burn, and when I close them they just water away. I am constantly rubbing my eyes and I look like I am crying all the time! These are the strange things the books don't tell you!

I have a doctors appointment on Thursday. Just my routine pee in a cup and listen to the heartbeat. I am still craving apple juice. Lately I have been wanting sour candy. YUMM!!

OK I will be back tonight to post some pictures.

Love you all,

Kelly with the belly
