4 months

So it has been a while since I updated, I apologize. Life has been hectic but great!! Ella is growing up so quickly. She just had her 4 month appointment today and she is doing wonderful. She has started eating rice cereal from a spoon and absolutely loves it! She also has started giggling, particularly when mommy kisses her belly. Today she got her ears pierced. They look adorable but she was NOT happy about it :(. Poor baby. Here are some 4 month pictures of Ella that I took this week. Enjoy!

Missy loves Ella

With less than 4 weeks left, Jenni is starting to get a bit anxious and uncomfortable but Missy is enjoying mommy's belly. :)

Missy

While trying to film Ella in mommy's belly, Missy decided she wanted the attention.

This is the fan that Ricky painted for Ella's room. Didn't he do such a good job?? It looks so cute!

Ella in 3D/4D

Yesterday we went to get a 3d/4d ultrasound! It was truly incredible. We brought both sides of the family with us for this viewing spectacular. Ella was beautiful but kept wanting to keep her hands and feet in front of her face, what an acrobat!! She also was a little sleepy, she kept yawning (it was so cute!). Anyway, here are some pics from the event. Enjoy! :)

Update

I am going to post some of the 3D pictures we got last week but wait for more to come because we are going Saturday for the real 3D/4D.  Ella is doing great!  She is weighing just over 2 lbs...(4 days bigger than her due date!).  Jenni is getting bigger by the day and is already into her third trimester.  We are getting further along in completing her room and will post pictures soon.

First Post

Welcome to my blog! I just recently discovered this website and figured I would update this as a way that people can keep updated with Ricky and I.  People have been asking to see pictures of my belly and how things are progressing so I will post things periodically to keep everyone updated.  

Here is a picture from our anniversary weekend (Dec 5-7).  We went to Orlando to visit the original site where we got engaged :).  Ricky and I had a nice lunch with Ricky's dental school friends.  It was nice getting to see/meet them.

Two nights ago, Ricky felt our little girl for the first time move.  He was so excited and it was such a special moment.  Also, Ricky has been working hard putting together her room.  The room is almost done being painted, which so far looks sooo cute! I can't wait.
