19 Weeks!!

Today we reached our 19 week mark! It is so hard to believe that we have been pregnant for that long already. Time sure does fly!
We also got to go to our next doctor's appointment today. It was a pretty normal visit ~ they weighed me (gotta love that part!), took my blood pressure, a sample and we got to hear our little one's heart beat again! (We would have recorded it again, but when we got there we realized that our batteries were dead in our MP3 player). The baby's heartbeat sounded great though. That is by far my favorite part, because at this point I am still not feeling movements on a regular basis, so it's extra nice to be able to get those real reminders that our little baby is doing well!!
We should get a call in a couple of days to have our ultra sound scheduled for sometime during the first week of September. The doctor was telling us a little about it, and it sounds like it will definitely be an amazing experience! We are really excited about it, and we are also excited to enjoy each milestone of this pregnancy together!!
Our Heavenly Father has blessed us tremendously and it is overwhelming to think about at times, but it is another strong reminder that He is aware of us individually and knows our desires and our needs, and fulfills them at the appropriate times in our lives.

Another shot from the other side of the room!! Do you like the wall color~ we are hoping to keep it whether we have a boy or a girl!

I think that the wall color is great. It will work either way. So excited for you to find out!!!

Wow, you look pregnant...When the baby gets older you can ask them about the color of their room and let him/her help you decide, for now you have enough fish to fry...Love you sweetheart and will probably talk to you in about 30 minutes, all my heart, dad

I can't believe you are almost halfway, it's so exciting! You look so cute & I'm so excited to hear about your ultrasound, they are so fun!

I think it is a GREAT color! In fact, our guest room- now nursery- was a little darker than that, and I really wanted to keep it... then I got obsessed with painting clouds... Hold strong, Holly, hold strong! BTW- you may know but Samantha had an emergency c-section Tuesday and Sister Harris is in town. Are the Zobrist's in your ward? She is staying with them ;-)

Love ya girl, you are going to LOVE the ultrasound!
