Our family’s home on the web
On July 13, my good friends Lia and Shakiesha held a baby shower for me. With this being my second baby (in only 2 years) I really wasn’t expecting one, but they did a great job and I felt really special. I think everyone enjoyed themselves- the food was great, we played some cute games and the cake was awesome. And I was surprised to get so many lovely gifts. Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated our baby boy.

I didn’t take monthly belly shots this time around, because I pretty much look exactly the way I did when I was pregnant with Alexandra. But I did decide to get some professional maternity portraits taken. I had these done at 33.5 weeks. Please forgive the quality, they are scans and my scanner isn’t great.

We had a second sonogram right at 18 weeks. All three of us were present for it, and we were able to get a really good look at the baby. We heard the heartbeat, saw all the body parts and saw lots of movement. We also learned that our newest family member is a BOY!

Our first sonogram was right at 6 weeks. They were very surprised to be able to see the embryo so clearly that early. We were also able to hear the heartbeat.

After three positive tests and a sonogram, it’s official! We are happily expecting our second child. The baby’s due date is August 23, 2008.
