Take 2: 3D





Here are some of our 3D pics from today. She was a little more cooperative. I am working on trying to edit the DVD and hopefully I can put some clips on the blog as well.
I don't know if you can tell but I think she might look like Josh. We'll see!!!

First attempt at 3D/4D ultrasound


Above is her profile pic

In this 3D pic you can see her nose and eyes, her lips are smushed. Then you can see her arm in front of her face. You can even see the two bones of the arm.

We went in today to do our 3D ultrasound but Emma wasn't cooperating. We will go back on Wed. to try again. Here are 2 pics we got. One is a regular 2D and the other is the 3D. We will also get a CD and DVD on wed. so I'll try and post that as well.

30 Week Ultrasound


We had our 30 week ultrasound today. The baby is measuring 3 pounds 9 oz. right on track. I go next week to do a 4 D ultrasound so hopefully we get some really good pics. Since she is so much bigger we don't have the full body pictures anymore. This one is just of her profile (I think that is how she prefers her pictures to be taken :)

30 weeks


Here is my 30 weeks progression picture. Only 10 weeks left to go. I have grown quite a bit this last week. She is much more active and still does flips when she decides to change directions. We have our 30 week ultrasound next week and then the last week in August we will have our 4D ultrasound. I will post pictures of those when we get them.
Josh's parents bought us the Bob Revolution stroller. I love this thing, I can break it down so easily. You can take off the wheels very easily for even a more compact storage.

Josh planted our trees a couple of weeks ago. They are doing well and we have luckily been getting rain almost every other day so that helps with watering them.

Random photos



These are the crepe myrtles I bought for 10 dollars a piece. We are going to plant them on the back of our yard along the fence. I'll post pics when that gets done but I think it will be a difficult process b/c our ground is pure clay.

Josh and I went to Wild Dunes last night for a work function for Josh. We went out on the beach to take a few pics but it was really windy. Still not as pretty as Florida beaches.

27 week progression picture, plus some other shots


27 weeks
Here is my kidney stone that took over a week to pass. I was surprised at how large it was.

My only day during our Florida vacation to actually get to wear my swimsuit, it was just too hot.

Hours before I ended up in the hospital for the kidney stone.

June Elizabeth Westmoreland


Here is our first visit with Baby June, she is 3 months old and already in 6-9 months clothes. It has been fun taking care of her and playing with her.

Baby Shower









My mom and sister gave me an early shower since I won't be home before the baby is born. We had a lot of fun and I am thankful for how generous everyone was.

Farewell to the Durdles



Our very good friends the Durdles moved to New York this weekend. We had a weeklong farewell extravaganza for them. I personally am still in denial and think they just went on vacation but that can only last for so long.

They went ahead and gave me my baby shower gifts since they won't be here for the shower. Marianne made me two towel hoodies. Debbie, I think she may be taking over your trade :) They also gave us a baby bath and a camera so we can Skype. I think that will make it a little easier knowing we can have "virtual" face to face conversations.


We also had a sushi party for them as well. I was really excited b/c we could make sushi rolls I could eat. That is one food I really miss eating.

Below are some more of our group pics

George and Vicki's visit






Josh's parents were able to come out for a visit. We were able to take them to a plantation and we ate at some great local restaurants. It is really nice to have them for a visit.

16 weeks


Here is my 4 month picture. I'm not showing that much and can switch between my normal cloths and some pregnancy clothes. I'm sure in the next month I show a little more.

14 1/2 weeks


I went in this morning for my second ultrasound. They did this one a little early b/c they needed to measure my cervix. With the type of ultrasound they did we could only get one viewpoint of the baby but I should go back for my 20 week and hopefully find out if it is a boy or girl. I was beginning to wonder if there really was something growing inside me b/c I 'm not really showing all that much. But when we watch the ultrasound the baby was moving around. At one point we saw it move it arm back and forth from its mouth. In the picture you can see the side of the baby. The ribs and backbone are visible and the head is on the right. I am not as sick as I was but I seem to recently be having some slight nausea, especially if I don't eat every hour.

We're Expecting


On President's Day weekend we went to a beach house with some friends of ours. That Sunday night we came home b/c I wasn't feeling well. In the middle of the night I woke up really sick and it scared me b/c I almost blacked out. So ER here we come. While we were there they let us know there might be a reason for this sudden illness. I was pregnant. It was a total surprise to both of us b/c I wasn't even going to do our monthy check until the next week. Josh and I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year and a half. Well the next two weeks were great. I felt fine and could eat whateve I wanted. Then....another late night attack of extreme sickness. Back to the ER...this time they ran all kinds of tests just to make sure nothing else was wrong. I was about 6 weeks then and until 9 1/2 weeks I was extrememly sick. I am now at 12 weeks and feel much better. I still have fatigue and every once in a while I just won't feel good but it is sooo much better than before. I go for another ultrasound in 3 weeks and there might be the possibility of finding out if it is a boy or girl. I thought I wanted to be surprise but I don't think I can handle many more surprises. So I will keep everyone up to date now that I have passed the 3 month mark I feel a little more confident.
