It's a.....

GIRL!!! We are so excited!! I'm so glad the waiting is over! Well, sort of. Now we just have to wait for her to get here! Now I feel like I can start planning a little better! We can get started on her little nursery!! My Dr. said that everything looked really good! She is nice and healthy!! She was being a little stubborn though! She did NOT want to move her arms away from her face! Or uncross her legs! This second picture is my most favorite picture! I love how you can really see her face! We have decided to name her Ava. (I've been thinking about this for a while!! Can you tell?)
The last picture you can see how she has her legs crossed! She just refused to move! Silly girl!

Continuing Education

Yesterday Ryan and I drove down to Ogden so I could go to a Continuing Education! (Just live hours that I have to have to maintain my Pharmacy Tech license, BUT the first lady teaching our law portion told us, or more like mouthed to us, that we don't actually have to have these live hours!) I met Marissa in class where we got to sit in really uncomfortable chairs all day! (I also somehow managed to pull muscles in my back because I was sitting weird most of the day!!) Ryan spent the day with Amber and David! Thanks guys!! After class got out Levi and Finn came back up to Ogden and Ryan came to pick me up and we all went to dinner! After dinner I remembered that I had wanted to go to the mall to get hairspray. They have the closest Regis store and I knew we were going to be down that way!!! As we were trying to find a parking spot we see these pink signs. I think to myself "They aren't senior citizen parking and they aren't handicap parking. I wonder what it is now!!" Well this is what we found!!! I thought it was the most AWESOME thing I have ever seen! Hence the pictures and the post about it!! No, we didn't park there. We almost did until I spotted a closer parking space!! Ryan thought it was pretty cool too!! I did find the hairspray that I have been dying without!! (Mom, I got some for you too!!)

First doctors visit!

OK! Since this isn't going to work the way I want it to I will have to do it this way! I went to the Dr. yesterday for my first visit! We were pretty excited to go in! I am 11 weeks and 6 days as of today (3/3/09) and I'm hoping the morning sickness goes away around 12 weeks! I'd be ok with that! My due date is September 18th now. (Alright! A whole day earlier than what they told me before!!!) And I got to have them draw my blood for lab work of course. That definitely was my least favorite part! But as you can see we got to have an ultrasound. Dr. Olsen wanted to make sure the baby was doing ok and also to really know how far along I am! In the first picture its head is on the left side. You can see its little hands!! The second and third pictures are just really good profile pics! You can see its nose and chin! And you can even see its legs a little better! It was also moving around A LOT!! Dr. Olsen said to me "I'm holding still and so are you! That's all the baby!" And he also showed us its heart beat! It was so great! Ryan really enjoyed it too! I think its all really starting to sink for him that we are actually going to be parents! It was fun to watch his face!!! But thats our little nugget!
