And the verdict is...

Today I went and had my anatomy ultrasound with my high risk doctor.  Everything looks great and really low chance of the baby having any sort of birth defects.  The baby weighs about 6 ounces and is measuring right on at 17 weeks 1 day.  Yes, back to my original due date of August 1! I guess we just caught the baby on a growth spurt or something last time.  And for those of you waiting with bated breath on what the gender is, here you go:

First birthday...

I know it's a little late, but we had some pictures taken for Charlie's first birthday way back in September. I am just realizing that I didn't put them up here for everyone to see. They came out so good!  We couldn't decide on which ones to get, so we got most of them!

Walk like a Man...

And we are FINALLY walking!  Charlie has been "officially" walking for a little over a week now.  He will still crawl occasionally, but mainly walks.  I must say, he's much slower getting around while walking than he is with crawling, but I know that will change the better he gets at it.  So, one more milestone achieved.  He has gotten 3 of his molars in and is working on the 4th.  He likes to get his teeth in groups I guess! We'll how long it takes before the next round comes in.  He is saying a few more words now, too.  He will say please and I swear today he said biscuit after I asked him if he wanted a biscuit for breakfast.  Not sure he will repeat it for anyone else to hear, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it! He recently got some bubbles as a gift so we gave him his first bubble bath the other day.  I'll let you decide if he liked it or not...







I think we'll be holding off on the bubbles for awhile. Not sure why he didn't like them, but that's ok.  We will try again at another time.

I just realized that I forgot to update about my latest appointment.  Everything is looking good and the baby is actually measuring a week bigger so they have moved my due date up a week.  Which would be the end of July.  Which is fine with me, but we'll see if baby continues on this trend through the duration of my pregnancy.  Not sure I agree with the new dates, but what do I know? ;) Still not feeling (or looking) very pregnant, but I am slowly transitioning to maternity clothes.

That's about all the news I have right now.  Next appointment is the big one! Stay tuned!

And just some random pictures for fun:

Happy Valentine's Day!

One year ago...

A year ago Jeff set out on a weight loss journey and I am happy and proud to announce that he has lost almost 50 pounds!  He's worked hard to lose it and keep it off.  Way to go, Jeff! Here are a before and after pictures:
