Here are the 3D ultrasound pictures!!! It was so much fun... My parents were able to come and Ry made it :) My dad left in tears, pretty sure we all did :) It was such an amazing experience... I was so happy to have my parents and husband by my side!!! While we were doing the ultrasound Logan was being so good, he gave us plenty of wiener shots and lots of facial shots :) We got to see him swallow, yawn and then he got the hiccups!!! It was so fun to see.... Everything looks perfect!!! He is 1 lb 1 oz and all his organs are developing fantastically :) I can't wait to meet him!!! My heart is so full with gratitude, love, and appreciation for all we have, it is such an amazing experience to go through, I am so blessed to be able to share it with my parents and everyone around me!!! (If you notice in the first picture... He is definitely a boy :)





22 Weeks ALREADY!!! Time is flying... Here is the finished cradle... it turned out awesome... I am so excited :) It is ready and waiting for little Logan :)

21 WEEKS!!!! Only 19 more to go :) I was able to go have breakfast with a great, wonderful friend that I went through nursing school with, she is only two weeks ahead of me, and the same size!!! She is tiny :) Here is us showing off our bellies :) The server at the restaurant was peeking at us and says "Do you both have baby bumps??" We sure do!!!
So Ry was able to feel little Logan move the other night, I was not expecting that, I thought that maybe around the 30 week mark he could feel him, but he felt him, and what an amazing experience, Ry thought it was cool, but a little weird :0 I just told him it confirmed that we are aliens :)
Little Logan is growing and making me grow so fast, I love the feeling of movement inside my belly, and know I will soon miss it... Hoping this won't be our last, I cherish every moment and every day thinking we may only have one child... but have been so blessed to be able to have this little one!!! I love him so much!!! We have our 3D ultrasound next week and can NOT WAIT!!! I hope he has dimples, just like his Daddy :)
So the progress of little Logan... He is 3/4 of a pound (but has added 8 lbs to mom), and is 10 1/2 inches long, about the size of a carrot... I feel him move like crazy, now more and more during the day, he still loves to move at night whenever possible... I can't even explain the excitement that I have for this little one!!! We are so overjoyed and can't believe this is happening!!! Saydie is a little momma's girl, if I'm home she is not far from my side, she sticks by me, not taking her eyes off me, she knows something is brewing in my belly... every time I sit, she comes and lays on my lap, not bad for a 56 lb lab... the little turkey, but I love it!!!

20 WEEKS!!! Half way to meeting little Logan :) I turned 20 weeks on Monday and had a project to do... sanding and staining my cradle... As you can see Saydie helped :) It took us three hours in the freezing cold but we finished it!!! Yea :) I was so excited, one project down, 100 more to go :( The cradle has a history... a 28 year history... This cradle was made by my Uncle Keith when I was in my mom's belly... 28 years ago :) This was the cradle I had when I was young, how my parents kept it for 28 years who knows... My rents gave me the cradle five years ago when we started trying to have a family, I soon gave it back when having a family wasn't working out... I got it back from their basement when I found out we were pregnant!!! I have been waiting five years to get it back and put a fresh coat of stain on it, and get it ready for our little one... Thank you Mom and Dad for keeping it around for so long, I can't wait to take pictures of Logan in it :)
