20 POUNDS!!!

I went to the doctor last week and found out that I have gained a total of 20 pounds. I know alot of you out there is saying "you could stand you gain 20 pounds" or "20 pounds isnt that much... gained alot more than that when i was pregnant". I have heard it all. I have never in my life gained this much and its a shocker. I just couldnt believe it. Hopefully I will not gain another 20 pounds. Maybe I should cut out the Hotdogs, Cheeseburgers, and lunch trips to iHop for all you can eat pancakes! :)

my ever growing bellie!

Here I am at 19 weeks! I was so proud that I was starting to show... If I only knew whats in store for me in the weeks to come! :)

23 and a half weeks! Hes definatly growing!

ITS A BOY!!!

Well in the middle of September, Keith and I have found out we are having a Boy!!! We are super excited! His name will be Noah Riley Cothran! As if finding out we were having a baby didnt change our lives, when we found out it was a boy, it majorly changed our lives. At our last check up he was measuring big for his age, he was suppose to be 10 oz and he was measuring 14oz. Since then Noah has been kicking and swiming and having lots of fun in my belly. He always seems to be doing something in there, I hope that isnt a forecast for the future! :) Just as Noah grows I am too! At the alst appointment I had gained 5 more pounds so that puts me at 9 pounds all together which isnt that bad i guess. Hope everyone is doing well... I will update the pictures soon!

The begining

Keith and I are very excited about this Journey. We are even more excited that we have all of you to share it with. This baby is something that Keith and I have prayed for, for a long time and he or she is truely a blessing. As of today we are 15 weeks and 2 days; we are about 5 weeks away from finding out what the gender of our bundle of joy will be. During the first trimester I havent had many symptoms - which is also a blessing. I have been very tired, Keith says I've been very moody, and thats about it. I have had some cravings - well let me be honest - one craving - I have fell in love with Hotdogs. I can not get enough of them! Especially the ones from Skins. hehe So I must say that being pregnant isnt all that bad. My clothes have started to fit snugg and i have purchased 2 pairs of maturnity pants (which I love!)In the 2nd week of my Second Trimester things have continued to be very smooth. I am starting to regain some of my lost energy. We are going to try to keep this page up as much as we can - hopefully you will enjoy it as much as we enjoy tracking every step of this journey
