Logan Malcolm's First Pictures and preggo update...

We had an ultra sound done 2 weeks ago and I didn't know how to get them on here. We have a scanner but I am a bit unsure how to use it exactly. SO I did the only thing I could think of.......I took pictures of the pictures and look--it worked! We got to see his little mouth opening and closing and he was moving his hands around. If his kicks are any indication, he will definately be into playing sports for sure! Even though he is only an average of 10 inches long at this point, he can beat me up good from in there. He has literally woke me up from a dead sleep pounding on me. I don't remember Maekayla doing that this soon. I hope it isn't an indication of how "busy" he will be getting as this pregnancy goes along.

I went to the doctor yesterday and all is still well. We passed the "quad test" with flying colors, which tests for abnormalities/birth defects. I also found out that since they couldn't see the nose and mouth fully during the ultrasound, I get to have another one after the first of the year. It will be cool to see how much he has progressed in pictures at that point. My last ultrasound with Maekayla was at about 20 weeks, and Logan's last one will be at 30 weeks. His heartbeat was good and I have only gained 11 pounds so far. That is less than I was at this point with Maekayla, so I think I am doing good to manage my weight. Of course Dr. B doesn't want me to worry about weight gain, I know that I started this pregnancy still carrying 40lbs I never lost from carrying Maekayla. After this, I would like to lose that 40 plus whatever I put on this time around. I am aiming to stay under 25, so I started going back to the Y today. I went this morning for H2O cardio, low impact and still a great workout. Turns out I was the only one under 60 in the class! It was fun though and the ladies were all very nice to the "pregnant 20 something girl". Dr. B also said I can do yoga, so I think I am going to try that tomorrow. I'll keep you posted........

Halloween pics.....a little late!







Here is Maekayla's very fun witch outfit. She was so cute! I know they are late, but better late than never at my house right now............
