Baby's Name and Nursery!

James and I decided on a name for our precious baby girl! I am so excited that we actually agreed to something. We came up with the name before we knew the gender of the baby. I am proud to announce that baby girl's name is: ELIZABETH MAI BLEICK!!! I have always loved Elizabeth and Mai is after the great grandmothers (one in heaven). Mai is after my dad's mom (Mae) and it is spelled in Japanese after James's grandmother who was born in Okinawa, Japan. Now that we have the biggest decision of our life down we are starting another decision of what nursery will look like. James is off this week so he is painting the walls of the nursery a neutral color and is also tackling the great project of painting furniture expresso brown. All that will be left is buying the crib. I have picked out the cutest bedding ever (I think so anyways).

IT'S A GIRL!

Ultrasound and 20 week appointment was scheduled today and ultrasound tech took many measurements and pictures of Baby Bleick. We found out that Baby Bleick is a GIRL! Baby Girl weighs about 10 oz and heartbeat was 150 bpm. Dr. Tidwell stated that everything looks great! I was so relieved to find out that the baby was okay and super excited now I know the gender. I will post pictures soon.

The Dogs and Baby!

Toby and Pepper (the two miniature dachshunds) have been clingy the since the weekend. Toby mainly wants to lay at my side when I am on the couch or in the floor wrapping gifts and doesn't want me out of his sight. Pepper on the other hand wants to lay his head on my belly and whine (he whines a lot so I figured its his way of communicating. Tonight Pepper laid his head on my stomach and was very still and started wagging his tail like crazy. Guess he can he the baby moving. James seems to think that the dogs can hear the baby's heartbeat but I have not found that anywhere online but did read that they can smell the pheromones a pregnant person puts out and they can hear the baby's movements. I dunno but I think its sweet!

Black Friday, Football and Christmas Decorations!

On Friday November 25, 2011 I went shopping with Amanda Fisher ..yes I said shopping on Black Friday people! It was not that bad because we went to Tiger Town which is really not that far from where we live. We ate Chinese Buffet and off shopping we went. I wanted to go see the maternity store across from the mall so we went into Due Date and I got a shirt for Iron Bowl game. I will attach a picture below. Then we went to mall and shopped and when we were getting ready to go Amanda found a kiosk that had Christmas Ornaments so we went over there and saw the cutest ornament.

We had a fun day on Black Friday! On Saturday November 26,2011 we were invited to go to one of James's friends house to watch the Iron Bowl. Well I was lounging around in my GA shirt and black knit pants cheering them Dawgs on then about 2:45pm after Ga was up enough I could go get ready and leave we went to go watch the Iron Bowl. I think James was happy to see me in an AL shirt however, I did it for him and the baby. Overall it was a great holiday weekend:o)

Baby Makes Three!

I found out I was pregnant around the first of September of this year. My estimated due date is May 4, 2012. The first trimester was HORRIBLE! I was exhausted all of the time and sick. The morning sickness started week 6 and lasted until week 15! I did not want to smell anything cooking. I craved Spaghetti and Meatballs from a can (well that was until I got so sick I didn't even want to look at the can). Right now I am into my second trimester and things are going much better but I am not going to get to used to it because things change day by day. For example, tonight I just thought I wanted chicken at least until I ate it and almost got sick so I spit it out and just ate the side items. I haven't wanted to look, touch, or even prepare chicken because it made me sick thinking about it. Also I feel like my boobs are starting to feel like the women on National Geographic! OMG had no idea they would look this way! On the lighter note I am getting excited to find out what the baby's gender will be. I do not have a preference because I just want a healthy baby! I will keep you guys posted as it happens!
