Bradley Aaron Dexter

Everything is going super amazing. I haven't been sick since I got into my second trimester which I love. Aaron and I went to my 20 week appointment last Monday and everything with the baby looks great. I have a little bump going on now which I am super excited about I really hated being at the in between stage where people didn't know what to think. They probably just thought that you were getting fat. I finally had to go and buy some pants for work because I didn't want to use the rubber band trick and the pants that I was wearing no longer fit minus the ones Amber had let me borrow that were maternity. Well my 20 week mark landed on a very good day. It was my birthday, my halfway point and the day we got to find out what we were having luckily that baby had been moving so I was hoping that it stayed that way. They say you need to drink 32 ounces of water 45 minutes before you get to the doctor. While whoever has done that without peeing their pants on their way to the doctor I applaud you. Aaron and Amber both came with me to my ultrasound which was really fun. I called Amber at about 8 o'clock and she asked me what I was up to. I told her that I was just trying to figure out how I was going to drink all of this water before 9 without having to pee on my way there. She told me to wait until around 9 o'clock because my appointment wasn't till 10 and just chug as much as I could and call it good so that is what I did thinking it would go well because she had twins and if it works with her for 2 it would work for me with one. Needless to say I was totally wrong. We were on our way to the doctor and there was this guy on the side of the road holding a sign for people to come and get there taxes done and both Amber and Aaron busted out laughing because he was dancing and singing and it was really quit funny. Well that is where the problem began. I made Aaron pull over at a McDonald's on our way to the doctors because I had to pee so bad and I couldn't hold it anymore. The surprising thing is that the ultrasound tech said that I had a full bladder when she was doing the ultrasound which I have no idea how that happens when I emptied it 5 minutes earlier. Well we got a lot of pictures from the ultrasound and I think my baby has the cutest nose ever. Here are some of the pictures we got. This is a profile picture with his hand by his face. This is a picture of his cute little foot. He was being very cooperative at the beginning but at the end he was getting done with being pocked at. Well this is my favorite picture of my baby boy and I can't wait to see him in August. Aaron and I have decided to name him Bradley Aaron Dexter.

I am very excited to start feeling him move more and more. We bought the crib and changing table so as soon as we get them and put them up I will post pictures. Well I will try and keep this up to date as much as possible so check back ofter.
