Wow Nolan! Can you believe that we are half way through this?!
Every day I get more and more excited about you!!
Ok wait! I still have to quickly explain the day we found out your sex!
Originally I was supposed to have my OB apt on Thursday the 15th, but Derek would have to work and so he wouldn't be able to go with. Plus, since he was going to be at work I was having an issue getting a ride to the apt. Thankfully I was able to last minute reschedule for Tuesday the 13th!
The appointment went fast and I was quickly schedule to go to the 300 building to get a blood draw for some routine tests. While at the 300 building I was able to schedule my ultrasound appointment for the following day!!
Thankfully I was able to leave work early to go to the appointment and Derek was able to make it as well!!
When we arrived the wait was too long! Okay, it was honestly no more than 10 minutes, but it felt like forever!
After being brought into the room the ultrasound tech had to take all these pictures and measurements for the doctor. So I patiently waited for 15 minutes until she was ready to bring Derek into the room and announce our baby's gender!!
Now lil Nolan, you where showing off your 'manliness' a lot to the ultrasound tech, but when it was time for me and Derek to see you where keeping your legs together! You where super cute! You had your legs bent up by your face with your feet crossed and you where just wiggling your feet and toes!! I could have watched all day!! But we couldn't tell what sex you where!! So the ultrasound tech wiggled you a bit and you finally, slowly moved your legs down and showed us that you where our lil man! My handsome boy!
Oh there was a point where the ultrasound tech was trying to find you and you jutted out your foot boom! Against my stomach! It was too cute! All we saw was your lil foot! Then there was a point where you were like playing peek-a-boo. You kept raising your head up and then pulling it back down. So your face kept coming in and out of view! Both this ultrasound and the last one you occasionally would bend your right arm up by your head like you where just relaxing! It's funny because that is how Derek sleeps at night!
You move a ton lil Nolan! The ultrasound tech kept saying that over and over to me! 'Wow your baby is really active' she said you where probably one of the most active babies she's seen!
You weren't just showing off or the camera either! You move so much all the time, but especially in the evenings! A couple of nights ago I couldn't fall asleep because you where moving so much! I am not complaining though because feeling you move is the greatest sensation ever!! Seriously you where wiggling for almost 30 minutes!! I just laid there smiling enjoying your movement! Oh! You are moving right now! I feel you right in the middle of my stomach just below my bellybutton! :)
Nolan, be prepared for lots of kisses and cuddles from me, your daddy, and all of our family and friends! We are all so excited for your arrival, but take your time. Grow big and strong inside of me and when you are ready you come out. We will be counting down the days until you enter this world!
