6 Month Checkup

Today was our six month checkup with our baby doctor. Everything is looking great! Steph and Mom went with me to hear the heartbeat. It was hard for the doctor to find at first since Eli was moving constantly!! The doctor told me to watch out, he's going to be really active! Like I didn't know that! We finally heard the sweet, little sound and it was beating at about 150 beats a minute. Dr. Pease said that I was measuring big, I told her we breed big babies, and she said that they would keep an eye out on the growth. My weight is good, I freaked out a little on the scales, but she said it was nothing to worry about that I should have gained quite a bit this month. Next month Scott will be going with me to my final monthly checkup, and then I will continue to go every 2 weeks! I will be in my third trimester soon and can't believe just how fast it has gone! He will be here before we know it!!

Here's my sweet boy at 16 weeks. I know he has gotten bigger since then with all the moving and kicks. Mom thinks he has the sweetest profile and I couldn't agree more!!

21 weeks pregnant!
Here is a picture of my growing belly! I haven't really felt big until now, but I couldn't be happier! Eli is kicking and growing everyday. I feel like he might be working on a dance routine to break out when he's born! He is an active baby, and I love feeling his little, love kicks and punches!!

Here's my hubby Scott getting ready to paint the baby's room. We decided on a light green to go with his bedding. Being the animal lover that I am, I decided on a bedding suit that has dogs, pigs, cows, and just about every cute animal there is! I can't wait to get his room ready to go!

This is what the little dude's nursery is going to look like. I told you it was full of fuzzy, wuzzy baby animals of all sorts! My friend Kyrie is a fantastic artist, so we are going to try to figure out how she can add a special "touch" to Eli's room!

On Mother's Day Eli and mommy got a lot of cute surprises! I especially love the I love Mommy hat and socks!
