My hubby finally got to see the baby. He was so amazed by it. I think it is totally real to him now. It was so neat for me to watch his face as he saw the little one for the first time! I also go to see the "little pointy thing between the legs" Yeppers! A boy! Kolin William Weigle. I am so super excited. It was so neat to find out. I want to get the room done and buy clothes and everything. It gets more real everyday. I love seeing this baby grow inside me and feel him. We can call him by name now. AMAZING!!
He looks like a little skeleton because you can see all of his bones at this point. He still likes to move around a bunch!

Flutters...17 and 18 weeks
I think that for the past few days I have been feeling the baby flutter about. I am not sure, and it isn't very often. I can't wait until I can feel the baby more often. I got to hear the heartbeat again yesterday. This was very reassuring since I am not really feeling the baby too much. I think it is the baby I feel. It is like, weird little flutters. Hard to describe. It was funny, the very first time I felt it was while reading the newspaper, and my husband was playing baseball on the PS3. He hit a homerun and all of a sudden I started feeling this fluttering! How cute. I have also felt it at other times throughout the day. It is an amazing feeling. I can't wait for the kicks that Billy can feel as well!

Mother's Day
This is my first Mother's Day. It is such an amazing thing to be pregnant on Mother's Day. My older brother and his family got me the most beautiful mother/baby necklace and bear from my baby! The card was so adorable, the baby told me that its Uncle Mark helped it to pick out the present for me. This will be such a memorable time for me. I can't wait to put all of the mother's day and mommy-to-be cards in my baby's scrapbook/album. I am so in love with a child I haven't met yet. I have seen it though and that was so amazing and wonderful. I also got to hear the heartbeat and hear the baby moving around at this month's prenatal visit! So cool!
My hubby and I are going to go out for dinner to celebrate. Yeah! We're having a baby!
On a related note, I am so in love with my husband even more than ever before. I just love how he loves me and cares for our baby now before it is even born. I just melt when he touches my tummy and tells the baby he loves it. It is so sweet. I can't wait to see him be a father. He will be such a great dad! I can't wait for this Father's Day. I want to do something special for a great daddy-to-be.

First Ultrasound On Friday, May 2, 2008 I got to see my baby for the 1st time! It was so amazing! It makes the whole pregnancy seem so much more real to me now. Not that it wasn't real before, it is just real in a whole different way now. The baby was so active! It was kicking its legs, crossing and uncrossing them. It was doing so many flips and jumps. It is so neat how much something so tiny moves. And, I was watching it move all around and I couldn't even feel it! Wow! It was even trying to get its fingers in its mouth! I was so nervous going into the ultrasound...I'm not sure why it is hard to explain. I guess I just was afraid due to the slight scare I had at the beginning of the pregnancy. And, since I hadn't seen or heard the baby yet that they were going to tell me it was all a big mistake...or that something would be wrong. So, when I saw that tiny little heart beating I was so overjoyed. I got some tears in my eyes. I just love the ultrasound pictures they gave me. Our baby looks just like an alien! LoL! Pregnancy is such an amazing thing, I can't imagine how exciting it will be to have the baby to hold and take care of. I am so in love with it now...how much more it will be when it is born. I find myself wearing clothes that make me seem to show the little baby pooch off even more. There isn't much there to show of the baby, but the right maternity top shows it off so well! I just love it!
