Third Appointment

Today was our third appointment. It is crazy to think how fast the time is flying by. We are getting excited because it is getting closer to the time were we can come clean and tell everyone. We are both really happy with Ramona. She is really kind and spends a lot of time with us. Today we got to hear the heart beat again and see the baby again and got more sonogram pictures. It was funny because a member of our ward is seeing Dr Kells and we always said what would we do if we saw them in the office. Well today was that day. Right as we opened the door they were sitting right there. I just laughed and Mel asked me what do I do? We decided the way we are going to tell our families is we are going to make a video and give it to them for Christmas. It has been a fun project and didn't take us as long as I thought it would have. Things are going really well. The baby is doing really well and is growing like it should, and we get to get the sonogram and know the gender of the baby around the week of the 17th. It should be loads of fun. Life is going really good right now. We have found a house that we are going to move into. We have a healthy baby on the way and up until now nobody really knows. Mel has done a great job on keeping in quite for this long.

Second Appointment

Yesterday was our second appointment. We are 11 weeks and 4 days now. It is amazing how fast it is going. It feels like yesterday that we found out that we were pregnant. The appointment went well the baby seems to be growing like it should and we got to hear the heart beat. It was pretty amazing to hear. Melissa has been doing really well. She has not been feeling to sick but has been feeling more tired then normal. We are still thinking about names and the ones that we like so far are Julie if its a girl, and Brigham and Hyrum if its a boy. We are still trying to come up with another girls name but its kind of hard to come up with names that have not be used in our families.

First's Doctors Appointment

 It has been almost two months since we found out that we were pregnant. It has been really hard because we haven't told anyone. It seems that everyone at some point of the conversation talks about a baby or pregnancy. it has been really hard not to say something. Melissa has been doing really well. She hasn't been really sick or had any major problems. Yesterday was the first doctor's appointment. We went to a mid-wife named Ramona. She was super nice and really took her time with us.  We found out that we are 8 weeks and about 4 days and the due date is June 8th. Matt (chris's brother) said "that date is already locked down so you need to pick a different date". The funnest part of the visit was Ramona was checking Melissa and told her to squeeze her fingers. So Melissa proceeded to reach down for Ramona's hand that was on her stomach. I laughed because then she said no with your muscles down there. The visit made everything real. Its going to be so much harder now to be quite because its that much more real. Our goal is to tell everyone at Christmas time, but we are not sure if we are going to make it that long because its really hard to keep this news inside. We are still thinking about names and don't know if we are going to share them yet or wait until he or she is born. I say that we are going to have a girl.
