I can't believe that I am going to be a mom in 100 days or less. AH! I am getting more and more anxious everyday. I am so nervous and I am so excited at the same time. The room is going to be ready for the little guy this weekend. My sisters are coming to help paint and decorate and I can't wait to see how it turns out. I will hopefully have some pictures up soon.
I had someone finally say, "You finally look kinda pregnant." It is so weird how people carry babies differently. I think I am carrying mine more in my back (like my mom) because my back hurts a lot and my belly just really isn't very big.
ALL YOU MOMS (or anyone) OUT THERE:
I need some advice. Please leave me a comment on something that I should know to prepare for this big event. Maybe some hospital advice, something I should buy for the little one that will save my life, or anything. ANY ADVICE WILL HELP! :)

ALL IS WELL. . .
So after a week of drinking SO much water, taking baths and peeing 5 times every hour we received good news. We went to the doctor today so the doctor could do an ultrasound to check on my fluid. We had to wait for a half hour and it was killing me. The doctor finally came in and looked inside of me for a split second and said that "O. You have plenty of fluid. I am not worried at all."
I was so relieved. I did a no-no and search online what can happen if you have low amniotic fluid and it wasn't very good. I am so thankful that everything is okay and for Jordan and how wonderful he is to me. He helped me feel better throughout the whole week and reminded me to drink or take a bath. Thanks babe!

Great Vday!
We had a great Valentines Day. For dinner we went to TGIFridays on Friday night because we thought it would be better because it wouldn't be as busy, but it was. We still had a great time sitting and talking with each other. Jordan is the best and got me a few roses, a willowtree figurine. It is called "Angels embrace" It is a angel holding a baby. I love it. He also got me a chocolate rose, which was very delicious. I surprised him with a wii and wii fit. He has been wanting it for a long time and I told him we would get it when we got our tax return and so he was waiting patiently for that. Friday night when we went to dinner I had him open up wii sports and he was shocked. "You got a wii!" After dinner he set it up and played it all night. Then on Saturday, I woke up a little before him and made some breakfast and had him open wii fit and he was so excited. I am just happy that I finally didn't ruin a surprise for him :) Below are some pictures of our great day!
Here we are before dinner:

24 Weeks
Yesterday we had our 24 week appointment. We had another ultrasound to look at the heart and bladder because last time they had a hard time looking at them. She looked at the heart and it looked good, but she couldn't find the bladder. After a few minutes, the bladder filled up she was able to see it. Those few minutes I was so scared. I didn't know what it would mean if the baby didn't have a bladder, or what. But luckily it filled up and all is well.
This morning I got a call from the ultrasound tech. She said after looking at the ultrasound pictures with the doctor, the discovered that my amniotic fluid level is a little low and I need to do the following:
Take a lot of baths:

Rest:

Drink a lot of water:

I am going to do as much as I can to get the fluid up to what it should be. I am really nervous. I want everything to go perfect, and it's not. If any of you have any advice on what I can do to get it up please provide me with that information.
Here is a picture of me last night. My belly is finally showing. I look horrible, but now you can see my belly.

Update!
So. . . I don't have a lot of exciting things to blog about lately. But I do want to say that my belly is growing, at nights at least. I only look pregnant at like 9 at night. My belly just expands and I feel like I just ate at a buffet and ate WAY too much or something. It is really odd. During the day, I just have a little belly that looks like I am just fat. I am still wearing my same pants and and clothes. At night they get really tight and uncomfortable so I just change into sweat pants.
Lately the little rascal has been moving like crazy. Most people think it is so wonderful and LOVE it. . .I personally think it feels weird. I love that he is moving a lot and I know that he is there, but sometimes I just want to relax without him moving. Jordan has felt him move a lot and last night we were able to see my belly move for a little while.
Another baby update. We have everything for the nursery. We have the crib, armoire, and changing table. We are just going to paint the room in the next couple of weeks and then we will put everything up. I got some really cute bedding and can't wait to see it all put together.
Jordan is amazing as always and treats me so well. He is really excited to get a son. I just can't believe that I have less than 4 months left. Crazy! We go to the doctor on Monday for another ultra sound to check on the heart and stuff. I am excited.
One more thing. I am trying to think of a few things I can make to take up some time while I am waiting for the little one. Anyone out there, give me some ideas. What is something I will need and would be a good little craft for me to make :) PLEASE COMMENT and help me out!
