Week 12 

September 24, 2011 It is so beautiful outside today! There is a nice cool breeze and most of the day it’s been sunny. Gary and I keep talking about how it would be the perfect kind of day to take the baby to the park. I can’t stop thinking about the ultrasound in 5 days! I am very excited to see the baby again and I am hoping the baby’s heart is big enough to hear.

Week 12 

September 29,2011 I had another ultrasound today! Our little one was bouncing around like crazy. kicking everywhere and jumping so much. (I’m in trouble! lol) Gary couldn’t be there today though because he had to work, which was a bummer but I am happy I got to see the baby! The heart rate is 167bpm :) I can’t believe how fast the days and weeks are starting to fly by!!

Week 13 

October 5, 2011 Heard the baby’s heart beat for the first time today!! I have never heard anything so beautiful and amazing in my life :) I wish Gary could have been there but my mom was there at least. I started to cry too…it was just so unbelievable!

Week 16 

October 26,2011 5 more days till my next OB appointment and hopefully (fingers crossed) Gary will get to hear the heart beat of our little one for the first time!!! And then after that 23 days until we find out if we are having a boy or girl :D

Week 17 

November 4,2011 Only 19 days left until we find out if we are having a boy or girl!! Oh I can’t wait!!! All I hope is that the baby is healthy and safe, I don’t know if I want a boy or girl more :)

Week 19 

November 15, 2011 Only 8 days left and we find out if the baby is a boy or girl!! I am so excited and can’t wait! I also realized my due date is Easter Sunday, that would be amazing if the baby was born on Easter :p


Week 21 

November 26, 2011 Three days ago we had the ultrasound…a boy! We are having a beautiful baby boy!!! Gary looked like the most proudest father in the world, it made my heart melt :)

Week 23 

December 13,2011 Our little boy moves so much now! It seems like most of the day he is dancing around in my tummy :) And his kicks are really strong too! Only 7 days till we have an ultrasound to check on his heart development, praying everything is well.

Week 24 

December 20, 2011 Had the ultrasound for the baby’s heart development today. They said he looked healthy and everything looked great! My sweet baby boy now weighs 1 pound 7 ounces, right on target :) I can’t wait to meet him and hold him in my arms!!!

Week 26 

December 31,2011 It’s New Years Eve!! I feel little Gabriel kicking and flipping around so much! The time is flying by so fast and I can’t stop dreaming about holding him for the very first time :) I am actually looking pregnant now! :P

Week 27 

January 11, 2012 It has been getting harder and harder to sleep now that I am in my 3rd trimester! I just can’t ever seem to get comfortable :P Baby Gabriel is starting to get a pattern of sleeping and being awake. The other day he decided to press his feet into my ribs (the most painful thing ever!) But I love him

Week 28 

January 18, 2012 We had an ultrasound yesterday and it always amazes me how much little Gabriel grows! I have one picture of his tiny face that makes me cry every time I look at it, I’ve never loved anyone more in my entire life! He is weighing in at 3lbs 2ozs, my little chunky monkey!


Week 29 

January 25,2012 Little Gabriel loves to hear what’s going on. I always know where his head is since my right side always sticks out farther than my left and I can feel his huge head already! I love my little boy, he makes so much movement in there, and I can’t wait to meet him!!

Week 32 

February 17,2012 Our little boy is getting so big!! Lots of back aches and side aches lately but it’s worth it. He moves around so much my entire tummy bounces with him!

Week 33 

February 19, 2010 So, I’ve been sick the last few days and haven’t been talking much and Gabriel hasn’t been moving much either. This morning I felt him start to kick so I rubbed my tummy and spoke softly to him…he went CRAZY!! lol He was so happy to hear his mommys voice :)

Week 35 

March 9,2012 30 days until our little ones due date!! Baby Gabe loves to bury his little feet in my ribs lately, ouch! lol I am so excited to meet him, getting nervous though!! I can’t wait to hold him and I know Gary is very excited to meet his little boy :)

Week 36 

March 16,2012 I went to the hospital on the 15th because baby Gabe wasn’t moving like he was supposed to. They kept me on oxygen all night and morning, they were even considering taking him out early if he didn’t improve! Thankfully my little monkey finally did :) Going to my OB next week to probably discuss c-section options, especially since baby is weighing in at 8lbs 5oz!!!



Week 37 

March 17,2012 Happy St.Patricks Day!! Baby Gabriel has kept me up most of the night bouncing around and using my insides like his own punching bags. Wow, him being born is coming up so fast….I am soooo nervous about being a mommy!!!

Week 37 

March 21,2012 We had our weekly NST and the ultrasound tech said Gabe is almost 9lbs!!! My big baby boy! lol We go to Williams tomorrow to discuss the birth, c-section and our options, very nervous about it all. We have his baptism scheduled also for July…where is the time going??
