It's A Girl!!!

Baby is a girl :) 
We are so excited!!!!!
The ultrasound appointment went really well. There was only one thing that they weren't able to see.
The doctor said that they were supposed to see this part of the heart and they couldn't get a pic of it. 
But then he said they did get a good picture of the 4 chambers and that eliminates 90% of any heart defects. 
So if they had seen the other part it only eliminates another 5% of problems. 
He said 3 times that it was nothing to worry about or stress over. 
So for now we are trusting that she is healthy and has a strong little heart <3
Having the ultrasound was a lot of fun and excitement. 
It was so comforting to see her and know that everything they could see was healthy and strong. 
Our ultrasound tech was really nice and super friendly. 
As she was doing the ultrasound she was telling us what everything was and that our baby was doing great and was super active! 
Which is good because it shows she is healthy. 
Baby B was being super wiggly! She was moving all over the place like a naughty!
The ultrasound tech kept trying to get pictures of things for the doctor to look at and for us on our print out and DVD but baby kept squiggling. We loved seeing her cute little body! She was so tiny but it was fun because she had arms and legs and a cute little face that we could see. It was funny because there would just be this big dark spot on the screen and then all the sudden her little face would peek through for a second and then it was gone. She looked kinda like she was playing peek a boo with us already! 
It was so fun when she said that the baby was a girl. I got a little teary eyed and looked over at Danny and he just had a big ol' grin on his face.  
It's nice to have tangible and visual proof to know that the baby is actually in there. Sometimes I get scared that something is wrong because she isn't moving all the time but then I poke my belly and prod at her until I feel a kick in protest. 
I know I'm being an annoying mom already! 
It's so fun to feel the little kicks and punches and just squirmy baby movements. I love when Danny is able to feel some of the kicks too! His face lights up every time with complete joy. 
We love our little one and can't wait to get to cuddle her and see her!
Over half way done :)

Pregnancy Hormones

So I figured that pregnancy would not get the best of me emotions wise...
Boy was I WRONG!
One minute I will be super happy, like out of control almost. 
Before I know it I am super mad about any teeny little thing that isn't going right for me. 
And don't even get me started on crying just out of the blue, seriously. 
Today I started crying for no reason.
Baby, it's a good thing you are so exciting and will be super cute!
What I predict you'll look like if a sweet princess:

And little man:

The Rains Came Down and The Floods Came Up

So...Danny and I have been at our new house for 2 weeks now. In that two weeks we have tried to unpack everything we own and find space for it. This task has proved to be harder than it first seemed. We decided that we would focus on the upstairs first. We successfully unpacked everything that needed to go in the kitchen and proceeded to decorate. 
I had been looking forward to having a whole house to decorate however I wanted! However, the only real additions that we were aloud to make as per our lease were small nail holes. So the light pink shiny old lady wallpaper that I despise had to stay...and sadly the old lady type furniture in the front room. I have grown used to this however and learned to live with it. I have been trying to find cute and cheap ways to decorate and one place that I have found to help me with ideas is PINTREST!  I love it :) I have already done 3 crafts from pintrest for our new house and have a few more planned for the near future. I am so excited! It is finally coming together the way that I wanted! I would take some pictures but sadly....we lost our camera somewhere in the moving process and have to wait to buy a new one. But when we get one I will definitely post some :) 
So...about the title of this blog post...I'm sure some of you are wondering what that's all about. Well, yesterday morning we awoke to the wonderful reality of a flooded basement. Danny and I ran around panicking that we had done something to cause it. There were 3 inches of water on the entire basement floor and in the storage room the ceiling had collapsed in the corner and boxes and such were soaked. Did I mention that we are renting this house from an older couple while they are on their mission and she is like the queen of food storage? I mean seriously, this lady is ready for the end of the world. As soon as we figured out the water was coming from the master bedroom bathroom Danny realized he had to break into the window (don't worry he had permission to do so) to get into the room since the couple had locked the door on us in case we thieved...I guess. Anyways...we got it all figured out and the lady called people to come in and fix the sink and now there is a crew working on our house for the next 18 days. Yesterday was spent ripping up all the carpet and starting to move things out of the storage room. Today is tearing out damaged walls and moving the rest of the stuff out. Lucky for me I have an excuse to not help :) Not that I need to help with all these guys doing things. But yeah, pretty much it sucks. The End

Field Day Fun


The last week of school was full of fun! Danny got to have most of it though. For some reason everyone at the school thinks that Danny is the run around guy. He was always jumping in and helping everyone out. They had him in several different classes throughout the day so he was always running here or there. If he didn't have anything to do he would come help out in my classroom. The office lady kept him pretty busy though. At the end of the awards ceremony they decided to have a game called egg roulette. The object of this game was to be the last one left without egg on you...I bet people can already assume that Danny was not the winner and here's a video to prove just how awesome he was at this game.




 For field day Danny was assigned to the dunk tank. He got dunked a ton but also had a lot of breaks because the teachers at my school are amazing and let their classes dunk them. I am included in that list of awesome teachers :) For the record...I dunked Danny 4 times. He only got me 2!
