It a.....

BOY!!!!

So what am I having?!!

Well.. you will have to wait a few days. I will post something tomorrow if I have time. I wanted just a chance to tell people face to face, before the whole blog/ facebook  world knows. I can say that the ultrasound went good, but they want me to come back in 2 weeks and have another one done to get  a better look at the heart and profile. The baby was not cooperating. But we did find out the gender!

A week of sewing!

This is the darling apron that I made this week. I made it for a friend of mine, Tasha. It was her birthday and I've been meaning to make something for her, and I been wanting to make this apron. So.... I made the apron and gave it to her!!! I think it turned out really cute and it only took me about 2 1/2 hour total to make! I might just have to make another one! 

This is a purse my mom uses all the time, and my grandma decided she wanted one like this. So My mom gave me the purse to look and some material and I was left to figure it out. This is the back view.

This is the front view. Where the material changes colors, is a pocket. This was a challenging project for me, because I had to rely on all my sewing skills. I usually have a tutorial that I fall back on and a pattern to work with, and I had a purse to look at. As much as it challenged me, I liked trying to figure things out. I only had to undo 2 seams! One I forgot to leave a hole in the lining so I could flip it it. This is the end result.

It ended up being a little shorter than I liked, but my Grandma liked it and thats all that matters. I also added a pocket inside and made it really stiff for it stands up.
I also have been working on Halloween costumes. I'll post those at a later date.

Boy or Girl?

Well tomorrow is the big day!!! At 9am we get to find out what we are having!!! So.... what do we want? Well... there's some pros for each gender.
Why I want a girl?
* I already have a boy. It would be something different.
* There are so many more cute sewing projects out there for girls, then for boys.
* Once we have a girl and boy, we will do a "surprise" baby and not find out the gender.
* Every little girl grows up wanting a little girl of there own.
* I've always thought I would have a girl, then a boy. Or a Boy then a girl.
Why I want a boy?
* I already have a boy, so I'm a pro at it. Right!?
* It would be a great play mate for Wesson.
* I already have boy things, so it would be cheaper.
* Boy clothes are easier to match. Thrown on a pair a jeans and a shirt. Girls you find the pants that match the top, then you have the hair.
* Boy are less drama, from what I understand.
What do we think we are going to have?
Kent wants a girl, but thinks we are having a boy. I really want a girl, because I want to do all the cute sewing projects that go with having a girl. But I think because I want a girl, I will have a boy. But a boy will be good for all the reason's listed about, which are more practical then the girl list. The majority of the time, I think it's going to be a boy, but then sometimes I think it's a girl. So I'm all confused. Either way, I'm blessed and thankful to be pregnant so I will be excited with whatever it will be!!! What do you think? You still have time to vote.

16 weeks

Here I am at 16 weeks! I think I've doubled my size in the last month! I feel really big for only 16 weeks. Though, I can still fit into my regular pant. But I won't for much longer! Kent thinks I'm crazy that I always take my pregnancy pictures wearing black. I tell him, " I do it for a reason!" I thought I would have more energy this month. I have some, but I still always feel tired. I have discovered that after I run I have a lot more energy. Yes, I still run! I do about 9 miles a weeks. 3 miles 3 times a week. I also try to do a workout DVD on the days I don't run. I hope I can run for a couple more months. Though, when I was running today I felt a lot of pressure, or a tightness in my lower abdomen, or my uterus. I think it's just my round ligaments stretching. I hope! I'll see how I feel tomorrow. I guess went  the doctor today and I've only gained 2lbs!!! So I'm up 7 lbs. I am very proud of this! As I mentioned earlier, I'm trying really hard to eat healthier and exercise more this time around. I have my ultrasound appointment scheduled for Oct. 21st. Just over 2 weeks away!!! Can't wait!!!
