Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

"Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious; If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious; Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"

Is it stuck in your head yet?!

In case you couldn't tell from the title, we saw Mary Poppins yesterday and loved it! I could have done without the lady behind us tapping her feet and I'm sure James would have preferred the little boy next to him wasn't constantly sneezing and coughing, but hey what do you do?! Overall we had a great time!

The set and special effects were amazing! If you have a chance to see it, GO! I promise you won't be disappointed. While we weren't allowed to take pictures during the performances, here are a few taken during intermission.

Side Note ~ Do you think it would be too soon to ask my husband to take me to the Sound of Music in December???

Gig 'Em Aggies!

How about them Ags?!!!

Ok honestly, I didn't expect to beat Texas Tech (call me a 2%er or doubtful or whatever, but seriously, who would have thought?)!!!

I am so proud of them! Good job boys!

Also, the Texans and Cowboys won today ~ so overall a very good football weekend!!!

To Bean...

We had our monthly appointment yesterday and everything is perfect! I always get nervous the day of the appointment ~ I have no idea why...(worrywart)...

This was the very first time that Daddy and I got to hear your heartbeat! It was truly the most amazing experience ~ I now know why people buy the at home Doppler's to hear their baby's heartbeat. I could listen to that sound 24 hours a day and never get bored!

Since we are out of the first trimester (YEA), I am finally breathing a little easier. I have only gained 3 lbs, so right on target for the first trimester. I am sure that number will certainly be larger very soon as you continue to grow :)

We were able to schedule our anatomy scan for November 25th at 11:10!!!!!!!! I cannot wait ~ I am so anxious to know if you are a he or a she! I would really love to stop referring to you as It...though some days you are a he and others you are a she. I say boy, Daddy says girl ~ at least one of is right! He has almost convinced me he could be right, but I have to stick to boy just because I want you to have equal representation :)

Your heartrate has slowed from 187 beats to 160 beats. Apparently anywhere from 140 - 160 is perfectly normal at this stage. Since there was no ultrasound, I have no idea how big you are, though according to Baby Center you should be approximately 3 inches by now...much bigger than the original 8 centimeters you were at the first ultrasound!

After our appointment, a friend of mine (you will meet Lynna soon enough and will love her) went with me to a Just Between Friends sale in Sugar Land to look for some baby stuff. I think we got good deals and I was thrilled to save some money! Our very first baby purchases for you...the first of many, many more!

I know April will be here before I can blink, but I am so, so excited to meet you precious baby! Mommy and Daddy (and brother and sister) love you very much!

Yes, we are...

EXPECTING!

Yes, we are expecting our very first little angel! This should explain all the other posts that will suddenly pop up in the next day or so :) I have been writing to our sweet baby over the last couple of months and saving them to the blog. Eventually I will create a book from the blogs I have posted so that later on in life, our little one can have a record of his/her life in the womb. Just what he/she has always wanted, I'm sure :) Until then, you can have intimate glimpses of my thoughts to our baby! In case you want to read all my random musings to my unborn child, there are 4 new posts in August, 1 in September (hey, I was busy!) and a couple this month...should keep you reading for a while if you're super bored!

We are happy to share our news with all of you, though I think most of you already know at this point!

Here are the belly pics...as a discaimer...Kevin wasn't around to take the second two pictures, so you'll just to forgive the quality :)

In the Beginning...

12 Weeks....

13 Weeks...

Week in Review...

Yes, it has been over a week since I've posted to the blog! So sue me...

Last Friday, Kevin and I attended an Aeros hockey game with some of his co-workers. I have never been to a hockey game and wasn't sure how I was going to feel about it. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed it! I wish the break in between quarters wasn't so long (short attention span and all), but otherwise it was an entertaining fast-paced game.

Houston Aeros vs. San Antonio Rampage (and yes, we did win!)

This past weekend we didn't do a whole lot...don't you love weekends like that?! I did clean up the house and if it could talk, it would thank me!

Hmmm....I know that isn't much...but hey, it was a boring week! At least you got pictures :)

Houston Dog Blog!

Miss Annie has made the big time :) Houston Dog Blog did an interview with Canine Health Institute and it has now been posted to their website. The star??? Miss Annie!

I am so proud of her and the progress she has made! She will officially finish with rehab sessions next month :) I knew this time would come...I thought I would be thrilled and while I am because of her progress (and of course the savings to come!), I am also realizing this is closing a chapter of our lives. We have grown to love the specialists there and count them as our second family ~ we would not be where we are today without their help and are forever indebted to them for what they have done for our angel!

I love you Miss Annie and you are a true witness to what God can do!

Happy Birthday Baby!

We made it! You are officially 12 weeks old!!! What on Earth??? I cannot believe that you are already 12 weeks old and that I am ALMOST to the second trimester (since the first trimester is really 13 weeks long). Seriously I had no idea about this until you came along, but hey...what's one more week :)

Mommy and Daddy love you sweet angel! Keep growing and stay healthy!
