Here is a picture of me today at 23 weeks and a horrible picture of the ultra sound at 19 weeks. This is when we found out our little baby was a girl.

Lately I have been feeling Hadley move around a lot. I think she is moving everything she can in there but I love it. There is a few times I am pretty sure you could have seen it from the outside but I never look in time. I am hoping soon to see a little foot or elbow poke out of my belly :) Today I went back to the doctor and everything was good as normal. I got to hear her fast heart beat again which is always nice. I had to do the glucose test today to see if I will have gestational diabetes. I won't know the results for a couple of days but pray everything comes out normal.

Lately we, meaning I more, have been trying to get started on some registry stuff since we will be traveling so much in July. It is a task let me tell you! I have no clue about baby stuff! Like what they need, what is good for them and what isn't. It is also hard because Northwest Arkansas does not have one big baby store so I don't really have one store to go to or to talk to people there about baby gear. Nathan and I did go to a store this weekend though and got all there is to know about cloth diapers. We are planning on using cloth and I am kind of excited...I know most people probably think it is crazy but I think since I will be staying at home with Hadley it will be easier. Well that is all for now but continue to keep our family in your prayers.

Pictures

I just figured out how to put pictures on here so here will be a little time line of pictures. This picture is at 19 weeks. (the one where I am wearing a black shirt). The picture of me in the pink sweater is at 20 weeks.

22 Weeks

Today I am 22 weeks. Baby Hadley is the size of a papaya. Last night Nathan got to feel her kick. It was incredible! It was such a good Father's Day gift for him. He couldn't stop smiling...but neither could I. We have not come up with a middle name yet but we did look at cribs and bought our first piece of baby bedding. Our bedding, if you want to check it out, is at http://www.cocalo.com/item.asp?id=534&brand=6&g=1&coll=&cat=1. We just bought the picture frames but we just needed something to match the colors. Hopefully soon we will have furniture decided on too. We will keep you updated :)

21 Weeks

On Sunday I was 21 weeks. Nathan and I are super excited. Yesterday we decided on nursey bedding and we decided on the first name of our baby girl. We are still working on a middle name though. We want a one syllable name. We have an idea or two but are still thinking. The first name will be Hadley though. Hadley ____ Bowers. Cute huh? We think so.
I am feeling her kick some. Mainly at night, after dinner while we are sitting around watching tv. Nathan hasn't felt her yet but he will soon. She kicks a good amount though sometimes. It isn't annoying or anything, I love it. I also am feeling huge. I know I am not, and will only get bigger but goodness, I feel pretty darn big. This weekend I tried to put a tank top on and it only covered half my belly when it used to be kind of loose. Nathan laughed a lot at this.
