Baby Elle's Shower

Haley and Elle Ryan had a shower last weekend at Grandma Debra's house. It was so pretty and prefect. Everything was pink!!! Elle is going to have to cutest stuff around. It was really fun to watch Haley enjoying her special day. She was definitely a beautiful glowing mommy to be. Not much longer till we finally get to meet her precious little girl.

Doctor Visit


I went to the doctor this Monday and to my surprise I got an ultrasound. I am SO thankful and excited that everything is going so well. The baby was head down for the first time ( I was starting to think she would never do that) and she is weighing a little over 2 pounds. She is measuring big so I have decided either I am going to have huge kid or be a little early. Only time will tell... I am getting very very excited about having this baby. I think it has really hit me that I am actually going to be a mom... For those who know me well you know that being a mom is something that has always been important to me but something I was never sure I could experience. So I have to say that I feel beyond blessed to be carrying this little girl with little to no complications. Ok enough of the cheesy stuff :)


I had a great time at Jo's baby shower is was perfect and she looked beautiful as always. I cannot wait to meet her little girl Jordan Julianna... Above is all the pregos!!! There is definitely something in the water!!!

~100 Days~

100 Days left!!!!

I know that the time is getting closer for our little ones arrival because all of the baby showers have started. I have many friends that are expecting or have just had babies (about 10) which has been so fun. I have so many people I can talk to and relate with. My friend Haley and I laugh daily about all of the fun changes our bodies are going through. Never in a million years would I have expected Haley to be pregnant with me but I am SO thankful I have gotten to experience this with her!!


Jeremy and I went and got an ultrasound done a couple of weeks ago and it was crazy to see how much she has grown. The ultrasound specialist said that it looks like she will have big eyes and a round face. The round face is for sure me and the big eyes are Jeremy. The curiosity if killing me. I cannot wait to see her. I am starting to become an little obsessive compulsive about cleaning and organizing... The count down has started only 100 day to go!!!! The belly is getting sooooooo big!

6 Months

Belly at 6months!
It has only been 2 weeks since I have written and a lot has actually happened. I am definitely getting bigger as you can tell by the picture above that was just taken today. She is moving around much more which is always a good thing. We have started the nursery which is exciting. Jeremy painted last weekend and we got almost everything out of the room to make room for all of her stuff. My mom and I registered which was fun yet interesting. I trust my mom completely so I just shot the gun when she told me to. It has made it even more real that she will be here before we know it. It is crazy to think we will meet our little girl in just 3.5 months! My body is starting to feel the "joys" of being pregnant... my feet are hurting by the end of the day (maybe I should give up the heels but I am not ready yet), I am getting tired again and having a VERY hard time sleeping... not because I am uncomfortable but because I have become a very light sleeper and cannot fall back asleep once I wake up. I am also noticing on my walks I am getting short of breath sooner. Women do not lie when they say you feel pregnant all over!!
I am really looking forward to the next couple of months... #1 I love the holidays, #2 my sister and close friends will be having babies very soon. I cannot wait to meet all of these little ones especially my niece and little Elle!
