Almost 29 weeks!

Tomorrow will mark 29 weeks into this pregnancy! I can't believe I'm almost at 30. Time is starting to dwindle down and it still feels like there is so much to do. I finally got around to getting pictures onto the computer....The first two pics are of my ever expanding belly. It keeps growing and growing and I'm pretty sure I'll be getting some stretch marks soon (boooo). Last Monday I had my 28 week glucose test and everything came back normal, so that's a relief. On Wedneday I had my 28 wk checkup and the baby is measuring perfectly she said. I'm right on track (weight wise) and have to finish filling out my admission papers to drop off at the hospital. Everything is going great!

This is the new pack and play that Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop bought for baby Kenny. It's so cute and we had a lot of fun putting it together. I can't wait to see him snoozing away in there!

Lastly this is the color we just finished painting the nursery. The color turned out so great and it's nice and bright! I really hope the baby loves it. Even Sapper (our kitty) was interested in the newly decorated room. Once we have everything finished I'll post more pics :)

3rd trimester!!!

I can't believe it but today marks the start of the third trimester!!!! Time has gone by so quickly and I really can't believe he'll be here in about 12 wks or so. Everything has been so hectic and the weeks have been flying by. Kenny and I finished painting the baby's room and it looks so cute. We did it in a color called "sailing day," which is basically baby blue. It will match his bedding! I will post pictures as soon as I can but unfortunately I can't find the cord to plug my camera into the computer sooo I haven't been able to post any new pics! UGH. It's getting closer and closer to Thanksgiving and the baby shower and I really can not wait to go home. I really wanted to visit home this weekend because Kenny had off for Veteran's Day, but we decided to stay put to save some money. We got our first presents for baby Kenny! Thank you Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop. They bought him his pack and play and a front to back carrier for Kenny to carry him in (which Kenny is very excited about). It didn't take us too long to put up the pack and play and it really is adorable.

Monday I have my glucose screening test to make sure I don't have gestational diabetes and then Wednesday the 10th I have my 28 wk checkup.

In other news, Kenny's birthday is coming up on the 17th!! YAY honey...he'll be 24! We'll have to figure out something fun to celebrate.

26 wks and updates!

This is at 24 wks and 5 days!

It's been about 3 weeks since I last updated and believe me TONS has happened! First off...I finally LOOK pregnant. My stomach is showing more and more these days and it's only going to get bigger (as you can see in the picture above). Kenny loves my belly and is always touching it and feeling it. Just recently (yesterday actually) I started feeling the baby kick. I could always feel him moving but now it's more of a kick and now Kenny can also feel it...which he loves! He's pretty active and especially since we love Mexican food he's like my tiny jumping bean! On November 10th I go for my 28 wks glucose test and on the 12th I go for my 28 wk checkup! I'm curious to how much more weight I've gained because after weighing myself at Megan's the other day I haven't gained any since last time I weighed myself. All in all about 11 lbs or so. My appetite is finally in full gear and now I"m always hungry. The third trimester is creeping up very quickly and I'm just waiting for the tiredness again!

In other news, we moved into our new house! It's beautiful and great living here. The neighborhood is so nice and quiet. We love taking the dogs around, especially since we don't have a fence yet (coming shortly). We still have some unpacking to do and we've been rather lazy on that end. Or in Kenny's mind I've been lazy lol! Also we've gotten a few things here and there to decorate the bare walls with and I'm really excited to get started on the baby's nursery!

The holidays are coming up quickly and I'm very excited to go home for Thanksgiving and my baby shower. My mom is throwing it for me and it's going to be a blast. I can not wait to see everyone! As for Christmas we're still not sure if we're gonna make the trip home seeing as I'll be about 34 wks. I guess we'll figure that out when the time comes!

Also, last but not least...MANDI had BABY MAYA! I am so happy and excited for her and Patrick. I know they'll make wonderful parents. Maya is beautiful and healthy and I just can not wait to also be a mommy!

23 wk checkup!

Today I went for my checkup at the Henderson Clinic! I'm 23 wks and 2 days as of right now and my lil man's heartbeat is strong and healthy. Time is really going by so fast right now that I honestly can't believe I'm this far along. We're almost finished our registry and my baby shower is at the end of November. I'm so excited to go home for Thanksgiving and for the baby shower. I still don't really look pregnant (surprise surprise) but at least I'm not gaining TONS of weight. Even though Kenny says I look like "Santa." Thank you my love! As of right now I've gained about 10-12 lbs and I'm only 2 lbs from weighing the same as Kenny. haha. He also thinks this is hilarious. I scheduled my blood glucose test today and in 5 weeks I have to go back for that! In the meantime I hope my belly grows so I look more pregnant then fat!

Life makeover

Our lives are just filling up with changes as we speak! A friend of mine said, "it's like your life is getting a makeover." haha. It's a very good makeover and I've never been more happy to be experiencing all these changes. Besides the fact that I'm now 22 wks and baby Kenny is growing bigger and bigger everyday, we're buying a house, and we just bought a 2007 Chevy Trailblazer! We traded in our ridiculously expensive cars and are now down to 1 car. One car payment is going to be so exciting! And since Kenny has his motorcycle it should work out perfectly :) We've both been so busy with everything going on. Settlement for our new house is October 16th and then we get to move in woo hoo. We've also started our overwhelming baby registry! Here's the link for anyone who reads this blog lol..

We're still not finished but it takes so much time that I tend to take breaks. We picked out our nursery theme and it's going to be helicopters! My mom sent me the idea and the bedding link and we both really love it.

I've been feeling pretty good and have tons of energy (most of the time). I'm hoping to get all of the hard work done before my 3rd trimester because I know my energy/patience will take a nosedive.

Pretty soon I'll post pics of our new truck !

20 wks!

This past Sunday I am 20 weeks along and this is what I look like. I know I got jipped huh?? No REAL baby bump yet but I have a feeling that one morning I'm going to wake up and look like I ate a 20lb turkey. Half way (or less) there! I'm really excited. Only a little over 4 months to go and baby Kenny will be here. This Friday I have my 20 wk ultrasound. Now this is where I would usually find out the sex but we already found out so i'm just excited for another chance to see my baby boy.

Some other news...we may not be moving to Cherry Point! YAY! Kenny is most likely staying with 2d CEB but that means we need to find another place to live. We NEED a backyard and a garage so we are in the process of BUYING. We're both really excited and will start to look at houses very soon. I know nothing about buying a house so hopefully it's not too hard. I'm just worried about moving in and getting everything settled before the baby comes. Well that's a little update on us :)

It's a BOY!!!!!!

Well it's official, we are expecting a beautiful baby boy!!! We didn't expect to find out the sex of our baby just quite yet however we were too impatient to wait until Sept. 19th when my 20 wk ultrasound would have been. Kenny and I made an appt. to have a 3d/4d ultrasound done. Yesterday we drove to Wilmington to a place called Womb's Window. It was absolutely amazing! As soon as she started she could tell it was a boy. We are so happy and excited to be having a son. His name will be Kenneth Leonard Krygier Jr. just like his dad. Of course I started tearing up and Kenny was just so excited. The lady was so nice to performed the ultrasound. We got tons of pics and we even got a 30 min dvd to watch! Here's a few of the 3d pics...

He's so gorgeous already if I do say so myself :) Now we can start baby shopping! So much stuff to buy and I can not wait. This has truly been the greatest couple months of our lives. Kenny and I can not wait to be parents. It's all we've ever wanted since we got married almost 2 years ago. In about 10 weeks we'll probably go back to womb's window and get some more pics done. It's only $100 for military couples if you go back again. She also said you can see more developments in the baby when I'm further along. Well that's the news on the baby front!!! I'll keep everyone updated as he grows and grows.

I also wanted to add that my wonderful parents just celebrated their 32nd wedding anniversary on Aug. 28th! They are truly a great love story. Congrats Mom & Dad!!! We love you.
