The 20th Week!

It's a BOY! Darren and I are so happy! We had our 20 week doctor appointment and had our ultrasound. It was the most amazing thing we have ever experienced. Owen was moving around like crazy: sucking his thumb, grabbing at his feet and moving his arms and legs every which way! We also heard the heartbeat - which was a healthy 140 beats per minute! Owen is almost 12 ounces and has all his fingers and toes. Our doctor said the ultrasound pictures look great. Though I have to go back this week and get a few more pictures taken because he was not cooperating and wouldn't turn over so she could get all the pcitures she needed! But again we could not be happier. The newest addition to our family will be Owen Daniel McCarthy.

I also included a picture of Steve and Owen's cousin Morgan!

The 19th Week!

The 19th Week...makes us almost 5 months and about half way thru our pregnancy! I have been feeling really good and just started a prenatal yoga class on Saturday mornings from 9:30-11. I think I will like this class - it is a lot of deep breathing, stretching and connecting with the baby. Really kind of cool if you ask me! I have also been trying to go to the gym and walk for at least a half hour 2 or so times a week.

Well in our next post we will know if we are having a boy or a girl! We find out next Tuesday at our doctors appointment! Can't wait!

The 18th Week!

My stomach really popped out this week! It seemed to happen overnight last Tuesday. My clothes are starting not to fit and when we are out walking around I catch peoples glances looking at my belly! Kind of funny! All in all everything is moving along like clockwork! More to post next week!

The 17th Week!

Hi everyone! We do not have to much new to report..we just had a very relaxing Labor Day weekend and we enjoyed every second of it! We started the weekend off by seeing Tony Bennet at Ravania (it was really cool!) and then we cooked up some good meals together, watched some tv, did a little shopping and that is about it for the rest of the weekend!

We hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend! Don't forget to vote for if you think we will be having a boy or a girl! Your time is almost up before the sex of the baby is revealed on September 25th!

Love you all!
