I'm back!

First and foremost - let me apologize to you for abandoning my blog in the first place - between the pure exhaustion of pregnancy, going to school full time, and working full time I got rather busy.

Now for the update - since I last posted we have found out that we are having a little girl and we will be naming her Olivia Laine. The plan for right now is to call her Lainey however she may come out looking like a Liv or something totally different. I am officially 31 weeks and starting my 8th month of pregnancy - yay for me! I am getting so big! I have only gained 12 pounds but I look like a whale - I did maternity pictures last Sunday so I should have them up soon! I have graduated from school - I now have my degree in graphic design and I am considering trying to find a new job after I get off maternity leave.

There is a lot more I need to update you on, like my trip to Labor and Delivery last week - however that will have to come in a later post.

Time.

Dear God,
Will you please make more time in the day?
Thanks,
Amanda

Sorry- I haven't blogged in FOREVER, I just am so busy and when I am not busy I am in my favorite place in the world- my bed. Hopefully I will get a chance to blog soon. Second Trimester starts THURSDAY - YAY!!!

3 months

Tomorrow I will be three months! A lot has happened since I last posted, first and foremost, last week I took a test called intelligender and it said that I was having a boy! The test is 80-90% accurate, and since I feel like thats what I am having anyways, I am fairly certain now. Here is the test



Also, my mom has decided to take me to a place called 4d peek (www.4dpeek.com) to find out what the gender is on February 13, which is a Saturday so Todd is going to be able to come, yay!!!

We also got some snow this weekend, after two days of non stop snow we probably got between 1.5-2" of snow. Which was exciting at first, until I couldn't leave my house because we live on a hill, oh and I had no food. Mid day Friday they cleared our street and I was able to go to Walmart on Saturday so me and Amara could eat. Here is a picture of the snow on our back deck.



Also I had a doctors apppointment yesterday, and thankfully my blood pressure has gone back down to normal and even with my new baby bump, I have actually lost some weight, also very good! And best of all I got another ultra sound, not as good as the last one but at least I got to see my baby. Here are the pictures of my bump and baby.
