Week 9 and Feeling Fine!

Well...mostly! This week was a major turning point for my aching belly. I'm hoping to continue feeling more and more "normal" over the next few weeks. While my appetite isn't quite what it used to be, I'm finding myself more interested in eating a greater number of foods (like Kline's cookies and cream homemade ice cream)! :)

Mom and dad came to visit this weekend and we had a blast! We played cornhole and barbecued in the 65 degree sun. During Cranium that night, I rolled all blues...was this a sign? My dad thinks so! Afterwards, we decided to do the gender test where you hold your wedding ring on a string over your belly. Sure enough...the ring circled over my belly. That means we're having a boy!!! 

Matt and I have 2 more days until our next appointment and I cannot wait another minute! Although we won't find out the gender, we will get to see the baby moving. Time moves so slow when you're expecting something SO EXCITING. We'll post sonogram pictures on Tuesday!
