Six Months!

Today I had my 6 Month check up! Everything is still looking GREAT! My Blood pressure is getting back on track. Still a little bit lower than normal for me but they say its better to be low than high, so I will take it and run. The doctor told me my swelling is due to the heat. Last week during the cold streak I was able to put back on my wedding ring but today I have resorted back to the fake one! A lot of the swelling has decided to settle in my face. Not the best spot I feel nor would have chosen or hoped for. This is why I am not as picture happy as I use to be. So to the many that have requested I post pictures of how "BIG" I am getting (I hope they mean my belly)! Here it is! (sorry I had to resort to taking a picture of myself this time around.)


I am still loving and enjoying every second of pregnancy & still could not be more anxious for this one thing in my life! It has been very fun & exciting the past 4 weeks to see the changes and to feel him move more and more. He is very active & has moved up into my ribs now. It's not to the point where it hurts yet but startles me more than ever. It tickles to some extent, it feels a little like the thump you feel when you get your reflexes checked.
He is usually more active during the day while I am sitting at work and at nights when I am laying down to go to sleep. So while I am here at work I have to try and not giggle too loud when I feel him. Some times I just can't help it! Tyler is able to feel him completely now and he is enjoying every second of every kick! I am getting to the point now where you can see movement while I am laying down. Tyler's reaction has been so fun to watch while he witnesses this! Makes me even more excited to see what's to come.
This poor little guy has had many cases of the hiccups already, but it kept us entertained yesterday during sacrament meeting as we watched my stomach twitch about every 1-2 seconds! I am sure people were wondering what in the world we were doing!
I have been making a goal list to accomplish before he arrives. I have never wanted to be such a better person than I have since the day I found out I was pregnant! Being such a HUGE example to someone scares me to death. I have a lot of things to check off the list and hope I can get them all done in time. I am also hoping this helps the time pass just a little faster as well!
I am getting very anxious to buy things for this little one but am trying to hold out until after my showers, but I couldn't resist with this purchase and just had post a picture of what I bought!!
I would have to say this has been my most FAVORITE purchase yet!!
