Update
I went for a follow up ultrasound yesterday and the tech said that everything looks great. Jack is growing by leaps and bounds. His heart rate is 146. He weighs approximately 2 pounds 8 ounces. He's still a boy! And, his second toe is longer than his first toe. Amazing what they can tell from the outside. As soon as I get the scanner hooked up, I'll post pictures!

Cruisin!
We went on a cruise from January 2, 2010 until January 9, 2010. We had a great time. We went to Nassau, St. Thomas and St. Martin. Jack had his first experience with marijuana at the beach in St. Martin. I'm sure he was feeling good from all of the second hand smoke. So glad we could share that moment...
I was very nervous that I was going to get sea sick and not be able to take anything, but I was pretty much fine the entire trip. The bonus of it all? I only gained 3 pounds! I'm feeling great and I only had swollen feet for 3 days! Now, back to normal.

It's a boy!
We found out today that we're having a boy! Jack it is. We took Grandma Hein to the ultrasound and she was just beside herself. I am so glad that she was able to share that moment with us. We're excited to meet you Jack Robert Ellis:)

Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! This year I am so thankful for having a very supportive and involved family and husband, having a good group of friends, and most importantly, having a healthy pregnancy.
I am thankful that I have started feeling the baby kick and am looking forward to Rob being able to feel it. I am thankful for the pudding I made last night and can not wait to devour it! I have so many things to be thankful for that I really could be here all day. Suffice it to say that we are very blessed this year.
In other news, on Monday I had my Dr. appointment. The dr. told me that they were unable to visualize the 4 chambers of the baby's heart and so I need to go for another ultrasound. The down side is...I have to wait 3 weeks to go:( I am really trying hard not to stress out, but it's a little difficult, especially when you're pregnant! I am officially 19 weeks today as they have moved my due date up one day! April 22nd is the day! I went for my quad screen yesterday and am hoping to get the results on Tuesday or Wednesday. It's amazing how advanced technology is these days. Yet another thing to be thankful for.

Baby Pictures:)
Here they are! The first pictures of Little Ellis. I'm working really hard to stop calling him/her Cletus as he's been lovingly referred to as Colitis by my 6 year old, toothless niece!
We went for our first ultra sound on Wednesday, Nov. 11. We were unable to tell if it was a girl or boy, but it was very exciting for both Rob and me. I still can't feel any kicks, so it's very reassuring to see that little baby moving around in there and the heart beating. The heart rate was 150 and he/she was one relaxed little baby! Save that for the outside baby!
I am really anxious to find out if it's a boy or girl so that I can start getting everything ready. I'm already 17 weeks and 4 days along and so far time has flown. I feel the need to get busy on the nursery and get settled a little bit! Such an exciting time in our lives! Next Dr. appointment is Nov. 30. Hopefully I'll be able to get another ultrasound from there!
