Well, the little stinker wouldn't cooperate and wouldn't show her face. She either had her legs or arms in front of her face and she was always looking down, so we only got a few decent pictures and we tried for a good 45 minutes! They let us try again next month free of charge, so that's what we are going to do! Here's a couple pictures they gave to us from what we got: Izzy with her hand on her face The closest full face picture we could get

Thank you Linda! It still does not feel real. I have already taken two test, the first one at Midnight and the second about an hour ago... and the second one was already darker then the first one. I will have to take photos and show them to you.
Mike and I went in to look at the first test together, but we did not tell Kailey... she was sleeping. Then this morning I took another one, she was there with me and she is the one that told us that she was going to be a big sister. We also gave her a book made for kids her age that is all about how to prepare for the baby.... we bought it for her ages ago.
I am nervous, excited, and yes... I have been feeling pregnancy symptoms for about 3 days. But I had a feeling I was pregnant around 5 DPO because my normal beautiful nails were starting to chip and peal, and that NEVER happens... well, it did once before.... when I was pregnant with Kailey!
Anyway.... Tell your hubby that we said HAPPY FATHER"S DAY!!!!!

Linda: I am so sorry, I was so wrapped up in my news that I forgot to tell you that I LOVE your new photos of Lexi, sorry she was being a little stinker, but at least you gotta see her again... and you will have another shot at a good face photo in just a few weeks! What did your son think about seeing his baby sister?

I am freaking out right now... but in a good way. I called my DR's office today to tell them that I am pregnant and needed to make an appointment. I thought that they would want me to wait until I was about 8 to 12 weeks.... well, they want me to come in today!!!! PLUS I might even have a sonogram!!! How awesome is that. I am so excited that I could just puke!!!! I am so nervous!!! Please say a little prayer that all is perfect with my little bean.

It is hard to explain how I feel at this time. I am so unbelievably happy that we are going to have a baby. I am so nervous that something will happen and we will once again have a miscarriage. I am so positive that nothing will happen. I am so happy that I am constantly tired, moody, hungry, sick......
I know that all of this is normal, but I cannot wait until we have our first ultrasound and we see our little baby's heartbeat. We have an appointment scheduled for July 6th at 4:30, from what I understand I will have an internal exam and also have a sonogram so we can get to see our little baby. Seeing the baby's heartbeat and making it to the 9th week will do so much for my nerves!!!!
We had our first appointment on Tuesday, Mike and Kailey both came with. I basically just took a test and had some blood work done. It was very routine, but very exciting to get to see an official "BFP" at my Dr's office. I also weighed in and had my blood pressure checked and both my weight and blood pressure were perfect.
Our original goal was to have my exam and ultrasound done at Tuesday's appointment, but there was a very pregnant woman who was upstairs ready to push.... so our DR. had to cut the appointment short. Actually to everyone's surprise I was completely ok with that, the way I saw it was if we wait until my 8th week to see the baby then at that time we will definitely be able to see his heartbeat and he will even have his little arm and leg buds! On Tuesday he would have just looked like a dot and there was a chance that we would have not seen his heartbeat.
Before leaving the nurse gave us a ton of magazines, samples of drinks, snacks, stretch mark cream, & nursing pads, and about 30 brochures and books on pregnancy - if she only knew how many books we already had on this topic. That is fine we me though, I love to read.
I almost forgot... They gave me a prescription for Prenatal Vitamins, so no more Centrum with an extra does of Folic Acid. Anyway, the prenatals make me gassy... and when I burp it takes like popcorn. The nurse told me that was a side effect from these particular prenatals but I did not believe her until it happened!
Well... that is all for now. Please keep our little baby in your prayers!
