1 week and 1 day..

We will hopefully be finding out the gender of our little bean! I was kinda bummed we had to wait until week 21 and not week 20 (hey I know it is only a week but it is a big difference to me :o)), Then someone reminded me that it is the same day that Brett and I got in engaged! I totally forgot! I blame it on the pregnancy...lol! So hopefully on our 2 year anniversary of our engagement date we'll be able to find out whether a little girl or boy will be joining us in December!

OH yes! I am pretty sure I have felt baby bean moving around! To me it doesn't feel like fluttering, but like the baby is flicking me from the inside or really small spasms. No matter tho, it is such a great blessing to be able to feel the life God created moving about inside! SO please keep us in your prayer that Baby Bean will cooperate and not be shy and show us his/her goods at the time of the ultrasound!

PRAISE THE LORD!

We are finally in our "OWN" place!!!! I couldn't be more excited and blessed! It was a long nine months but soooo worth it!! Everything fell into place, both monetary wise and our GREAT helpers! I know that this was the perfect timing the Lord had! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH to all of our friends who came over and helped move and paint in the heat especially staying in the house when it had no cool air running! You are such a blessing to us and I pray the Lord blesses you MIGHTILY for giving up of your time and suffering in the heat!! To our families too! For also braving the heat and spending your vacation doing it! Brett and I are WAY excited to journey into this next part of our lives. Then come December we'll have a little one to join us! I CAN'T WAIT to find out if our junior life journey partner will be a girl or boy so we can start decorating its bedroom! 16 more days!!!!!!!!

Thank you Lord for always taking care of Brett and I!

Week 18!!



2 more weeks and we'll be half way there! I can't believe how fast it is going! July 22nd is the big day that we find out (pending baby's cooperation) the gender! I am soooo anxious and soooo ready to find out! EVERYBODY asks me everyday if I know I and I want to be able to say YES instead of no.

Exciting news! We finally are moving into the house we have waited NINE months for! We are sooo excited to have the space of a house! I was beginning to feel soooo cramped in the bedroom we've been staying at. Thank you soooo very much to my in-laws for letting us crash their guest bedroom for the last nine months! It was a HUGE blessing!!!

So I am even more anxious now to know the gender of our baby so we can start looking and deciding on decorating ideas. Our good friend is going to paint a mural of our choice once we decided what we want.

How have I been feeling? Well definitely feel more energetic!! Still tired after work, but that probably is normal since I don't really get to take a short nap during the day. I have not "officially" felt the baby move so I think. I have felt little spasm type thingies but not tooo sure if it is the baby or my stomach muscle spasming out from the stretching. Which also brings me to ...I AM GETTING HUGE! My bosses wife keeps asking me if I am having twins. She says I don't look like I gained lots, that my face and other body parts look the same, but just my belly is sticking out (of course you say, you are pregnant, but I think she means more than expected). I don't know what to make of that. I know she means good and is not trying to offend me and I am not, I just don't know. Last time I heard there was only one! LOL! But maybe we are in for a HUGE surprise or maybe I am just going to be HUGE! Either way I don't like the HUGE factor! I didn't quite start off this pregnancy at my "ideal" weight so that could be the BIG factor that makes me look HUGE!

Life is good, we are blessed and very grateful to God for his perfect timing with our home and CAN'T WAIT to find out what the next Humphreys child will be.... a BOY OR GIRL! What do you think??

Introducing.....JAKOB RICHARD


Yahoo!! He is here! Jakob made his be debut yesterday June 12th. Third times the charm for my sister. After 2 visits (different days) to Labor and Delivery with contractions and then getting sent home, she was finally admitted the third time and they brought Jakob into the world!

He weighed in at 6lbs 13oz, measuring 19in.



So far he is a cry free baby. See the video below. He got a shot in his foot and was having blood taken and not a peep from him.




Here is Uncle Brett and Jakob

Jakob with his Pee Pee Tee-Pee. I found this with my mother in law at a store. It covers their little pee-pee so when you change their diaper you won't get a pee-pee bath!

Meet "Saucey Rudolph". Tristan's new puppy. He got him a week ago. Mommy and Daddy get a new baby and Tristan gets a new puppy! Funny thing is Grandma and Poppa got a new granddog too. They are currently babysitting while Mommy and Daddy are in the hospital with Jakob. Saucey is a cutie. He had to warm up the Grandma and Poppa. But looks like they are all acquainted now.

Week 14!

What Baby Bean looks like this week!

So today I am 14wks 2 days. Time is sure flying by. We went to the doctor on Monday and heard the heartbeat! We cheated tho and have heard it already. We bought a Doppler off EBay back in the beginning of May. It never ceases to be amazing tho! I just can't wait to see the baby again and how much it has grown!



So we have SIX more weeks until we can find out if it is a girl or boy, or in the words of my boss has a spicket or no spicket. I don't know if I can wait that long!!! I really wish I knew someone with an ultrasound machine!



I have been feeling better in regards to nauseousness. It pretty much has subsided. I am however still TIRED! Everyday I HAVE to go home from work and take a nap. Hopefully soon my energy levels will rise again :):)



On our "rental" situation. Looks like FINALLY we'll be moving. We have a walk thru scheduled next Wednesday and if all goes well we should be able to start moving around the 15th of June. I am excited to SPREAD out and have space again...lol! Not so excited about the moving part. Good thing I can use the "pregnancy card" and not have to carry any boxes! I'll just unpack them.



Lastly our little nephew who is still kickin it in the womb almost made his appearance yesterday. I was SOOOO excited but then our hopes were dashed when the hospital wanted my sister to dilate ONE more centimeter. Why? I wanted to scream at them, she is having a c-section and 1-2 centimeters should be enough for you to admit her and bring that baby into the WORLD! My sister is determined now to get him out! So I hope to have a new nephew by the end of this week early next :o)



Well that's it on the Humphrey's front. I'll update again soon!
