Belly Pic!

Well folks, are you ready for the unveiling of my belly? I am 17 weeks and people are just starting to notice that something is different. I am still not big enough for people to be sure that I'm pregnant, though....so they don't want to ask or say anything.

I'm most comfortable in maternity pants now, but have to say that I still can't get use to maternity tops. They are just too blousey for me now, but I know it won't be long before I begin to love them.

Just 1 and a half more weeks til we know if we're having a boy or a girl! Can't wait!!!

The realization...I'm going to be a mom!

So, I went to the dentist yesterday (good check up by the way). The dental hygienist asked me what time of day is best for my appointments...and said that the next appointment would be in November sometime. In that moment, it hit me...by the next time I see the dentist, I'll be a mom!!! Holy cow! How will that work? Will I feel up to going to the dentist only 3 weeks after having the baby? Will I take the baby to the appointment, if not, who will watch the baby? Ahhh!!

...pretty funny I thought...

Baby Nicholson-16 weeks!

So, we went for our 16 week appointment today not knowing what to expect. This was, by far, the shortest appointment we've been to yet! Although it was short, it was super sweet because we got to hear baby's little heartbeat! It was precious! swish swish swish swish...the doctor could even tell that baby turned over while she was listening! Amazing!

Dr. LaBelle also measured my stomach, and it measured exactly 16 weeks...so everything is right on track!

I know some of you might be anxious for some belly pics, and I'm sorry to tell you that you won't get them in this post...Honestly, I keep forgetting to take them! You see, until pretty recently, you couldn't really see anything, so it didn't seem like there was anything to take a picture of! But, I've got a little belly now, and elastic has become my friend :) I'll be sure to start taking some pictures and post them as soon as I can!

In other baby news...we bought a crib! We'll get to pick it up in Atlanta during our next trip...which just so happens to be to a HARRY CONNICK JR. CONCERT!!!!!!! We're shifting furniture around, starting to clean out all of our junk from the nursery, and trying to get organized...what do you think? nesting!?! :)

Okay, now that you've seen the ultrasounds, know the hear rate, as well as belly measurements, vote! What do you think? Will we have a Chad or Allison Jr.???? You've only got 3 weeks, so vote now!!!
