That's a Real Baby!

Darren and I got to see our little baby this week! He/she is measuring 13 weeks and 1 day and everything looked healthy. This picture cracks me up because the baby looks like it's pouting because we woke it up.  We did though, the tech was pushing on my belly like I do when I'm trying to get into pair of jeans that are too small!  Baby Hawk wouldn't move! Enter the Kashi cereal bar.  I hadn't eaten in nearly 4 hours (the appointment was VERY long) so I ate my Kashi bar that I always keep in my purse for ultrasound emergencies. BOOM, baby Hawk was wiggling and sucking and even looked like he/she was sucking it's thumb! Yes, this is indeed my baby, I go nuts for food too!
I do think the profile looks like Darren though. Darren makes this cute pouty face when he's being funny.  So, the mystery is solved, this is Darren's baby. Whew, we were wondering. I'm totally kidding people!
This picture is sort of creepy to me but I must share my 3-D picture. It looks like the baby's sucking it's thumb which I find so cute! I sucked my fingers until I got chicken pox and my mother told me I would get chicken pox in my mouth if I didn't stop. I was 15, no actually I was 5 I think. If this baby is truly a thumb sucker I'm screwed because there's a vaccine for chicken pox now! So many high class problems these days.

This is me at the end of week 13. I know, I just look like I've eaten a lot of Krispy Kreme donuts but as evidenced from the pictures above, that profile is actually in there! As my cousin Erin said "Science is so cool". I have to add "God is pretty amazing too!"   Oh and I don't normally have straight hair but I went to get a cut this day and my hairdresser always straightens it.  She's awesome! If I ever win the lottery I am having her move in with me to do my hair and tell me dirty jokes.

    Or boy. I really want to 100% commit to being like, this is a girl! So, when it is a girl, we can tell her for her entire life how her Aunt Nicole just knew the whole time. But, if it is a boy, and he reads this one day, I will feel really bad. So, I am adding- Your Aunt Cole loves you, little boy!

    *Please be a girl, so I can be right. Thank you.*

    You look great, Emily! Baby bump, of course, but I have never seen your hair straight and it is super cute.

    I hope you don't mind if I follow your blog since we have actually only met a few times, but between Erin and the twins I feel like I know you much better than I really do.

    Congrats on the baby!!

    awwwww sweet baby! I am so excited for you both. Also, your hair looks really great straight (of course, it looks great curly, too). Also also, you look so good! pregnancy apparently agrees with you! I am going to side with nicole and say girl, too. I picture you as a "boy mom," which I also thought I was. Since I had a girl and it has been the best thing ever, I think you are having a girl, too!

    Congratulations to you and Darren.. I am so excited for everyone.. The baby is adorable. It does look like a little boy in the pictures. You look so good too. When I first saw the picture of you with straight hair, I was so shocked. I love your hair either way.. We love you. Pops and Noni

    Yay for baby hawk. I'm hoping that kashi bar was not contraband from a hotel in Atlanta. Mostly because that would make it really stale. And, please be a boy so I can be right. Thank you.

To Stella

I thought it would be fun to write a letter to you before I met you. We could read it together later and laugh about how clueless I was about you! Dear Stella, It's Christmas 2011 and I honestly haven't thought at all about the holiday this year.  All I can think about is March, when I get to meet you for the first time.  Your Dad and I went to the hospital this week to check out where you would be born! I thought for sure going to the hospital would make me anxious but instead it made me incredibly excited. What a gift it is to bring someone into the world and because of you I get to experience that.  You have no idea how much you were prayed for, wanted, hoped for, for so many years. I always knew I wanted to be a mother, even back in high school when I worked in a toy store and joked about getting my tubes tied. :-) But, when I found out about YOU I couldn't have been happier.  I remember standing in the bathroom completely convinced that I had willed ...

2012 Highlights

So I'm obviously abandoning my attempt to try to capture every Saturday in Stella's life. I now realize that's impossible. Plus, not everything in the world happens on a Saturday. It's the fun/sad/crazy moments that are the ones you want to remember right? (by sad I mean "my baby's growing up" sniff sniff)  And those usually happen on a random Tuesday or something. So I'm going to attempt in this last post of the year (and some of you may be saying "your only post this year", no I had like 7 okay...ha ha) to remember the BEST moments of my life in 2012. You may want to go pee, eat something and bring a drink back, this sucker's going to be long. Our House January 1st we moved into our house. I love our house. It is seriously a fairytale house and neighborhood where I want my babies to grow up. I have a nightmare once a month that involves us moving, I usually wake up very sad. Odd, yes. Apparently you know you're old when you...
