Looking Forward to October

I cannot belive 4 months have come and gone! As the moth of September comes to an end I am 18 weeks pregnant and feeling every bit of it. BabyB is continuing to grow bigger by the day (it seems like). I still have not felt the first movement. I'm a little bummed, but my doctor told me it would probably be 20 weeks or so because of where my placenta is placed. Still....I want to know what he/she is doing in there! More than that I want to know if we have a he or a she! Our ultrasound is exactly two weeks from today. I am so excited and anxious I can hardly stand myself!

The Bakers have a BIG month coming up with lots to look forward to. The weekend of October 10-11 we will be taking Pooh to the St. Jude Dog Show. It is sooooo much fun. We are hoping he acts right, you never can tell with him. Then on Sunday we head to the big city of Nashville for football Titans vs. Colts. Justin is very excited. This was my early anniversay present to him. I'm also looking forward to making stops in Nashville that include visiting with Julie and Brandon and Lucy and Ryan and Lisa as well as stopping at the bowl place....better known as Ghengis Grill. Its one of our favorite places to eat. Tuesday the 13th is our ultrasound YAY!!!!! The next weekend is my dear friend Esther's wedding and then the 22nd is our anniversary. I can't believe it has been a year! It has gone by so fast, but it has been amazing and I love my sweet husband very much! We wrap the month up with John and Leeann's wedding on Halloween and then on to a fun costume party at Chuck and Ashley's. WHEW!

Fall is my favorite time of year. If you haven't noticed....it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside. What is not to love about life right now ?!! I am so excited about all the fun things we have going on the next few weeks. Watch out for the Bakers coming to a town near you!

The Beginnings of a Beautiful Blog

So this is my first attempt at blogging. I have never been very good at journaling so hopefully this will be a better way for me to document our lives and share it with our family and friends.

The Baker's 3 is made up of myself, my wonderful husband Justin, and BabyBaker...who is on the way. I guess we could have called it the Baker's 5 becuase I know Darby and Pooh would be totally offended if they knew I left them out! The Baker's have a lot going on right now. As I mentioned we are expecting BabyB in March. I am 16 weeks. We had a doctor's appoinment today and it was wonderful. BabyB got a little irritated at the doctor chasing him/her around in my belly with that wand trying to catch the heartbeat....he/she was swimming around all over the place trying to escape the poking and prodding! But finally, we got to hear that most beautiful sound in the world...at 170 beats per minute. Don't worry, BabyB will not have to be refered to as he/she for much longer. We are looking forward to finding out the sex just 4 weeks from today. The suspense is killing me!! My prediction is Boy...but we shall see. Meanwhile....my belly is getting bigger and I definately look pregnant. It is so exciting to know that an absolute miracle is happening inside my own body!
