30 weeks and counting...

Today we had our 30 week ultrasound at the doctor. For reassurance, we saw that there was no mistake in his sex, he is 100% boy! He is still measuring very well in every aspect; limbs, head, belly, and heart! He also officially weighs a whole whopping 3lbs 4oz! The doctor told us he looks healthy and we could not be happier. He also told us that he is currently breech, so he has 6 weeks to get his little self all turned around before we worry!

Our lives...

It's been FOREVER since I last posted I thought I better update everybody on our lives. We both officially survived finals week, and both ended up with really great grades for the semester. After our classes were over we then headed to Lyman, our new home for the summer. We are living with my parents so that Tyler can work and actually make some money, and start really saving up some money in our savings account! The jobs in Laramie barely pay minimum wage! After we got ourselves all settled, and Ty started working, I found myself terribly bored!

I have done quite a bit of sewing, gone shopping, renewed my drivers license, and decided to spend some time outside in the sun on Monday. Well, the sun and I didn't really get along! I went out in my bathing suit, where nobody could see me, and laid my white body out. An hour later I thought to myself "People have told me to be careful in the sun while preggers, I really don't want to get fried." So after this thought I headed inside. Once inside I looked over myself and thought I did good, not fried, just a little bitty bit of red. I sat down, and about three hours later looked at my legs again...complete lobster. And as the night went on it only got redder. My legs, knees, and ankles swelled up so big that I literally could not even walk. This then posed a serious problem the next few day because I was subbing at the High School. I could not hardly even wear any clothing! So, I resorted to long comfy skirt every day! I was pretty much miserable each day at the school, and seriously don't know how I made it through!

On Wednesday Tyler and I headed back to Laramie for the weekend. Tyler was scheduled to take his MCAT, which is the medical entrance exam, Friday morning. He studied all day Thursday and woke up bright and early this morning to go take it. He is there right now! Hence the reason I am blogging! GOOD LUCK TYLER!! We hope he does extremely well so he can get in!

Also since the last time I posted, we had another doctor appointment. We switched doctors from our Laramie ones to Dr. Hansen in Evanston. I was a little nervous having to meet yet another doctor in this pregnancy, but it went really well. My sister-in-law went to him with some of her girls and really liked him, so I hoped i would too. I did! He was so different from the Laramie doctors who just rush you in and out and don't care about your questions or concerns. He answered every silly question I had with full explanation. The baby was measuring very well, and his heart beat was so strong! We also were told that we get to have another ultrasound at week 30, which is next week! YAY! I love ultrasounds, they are so amazing!

Also, so more big baby news, our little guy got hiccups for the first time last night! (well first that I have felt) It was so stinking cute! I loved it! He had them for what seemed like forever! Both Ty and I felt them, and it was amazing! I can't believe how much we love our little munchkin already! And we haven't even met him yet!
