Excited!

Ok so Monday, Jan 26th Phil and I get to find out what the sex of our baby is...well as long as baby corporates with us. And I there have been only a few times in my life have I been this anxious for something. We have two names for the baby, one if its a boy and one if its a girl. We have known for a while what we would like to name our boy so that was pretty easy...but we figured we would need a girl name just in case. And I have been thinking about names for...well since we found out we were going to have a baby. I mean a name is kind of a big deal, its not like naming your dog, where it can be funny or whatever. So Ive been thinking about it a lot and we finally were able to agree on a boy and a girl name! And when we agreed on the names...I felt sooo excited! Im totally weird I know. But little things like figuring out the name, makes this pregnancy more real for me. If its a boy we will name him Carter Lorin Bingham. If its a girl we will name her Candice Leann Bingham. And no the same initals weren't done on purpose. It just happened like that and I didnt noticed till I wrote them both down on paper and saw that it would be the same intials. So yeah those our the names we have agreed on.

For the past couple weeks Ive been able to feel the baby 'kick'. And let me tell ya, this baby is one active little thing. Im trying to record when baby is active cuz it will prob come in handy. And every so often baby will get a strong one it. Its the craziest and yet the most wonderful feeling in the world. I feel bad for my husband since he wont get to feel this feeling. He has been able to feel the kicks from the outside twice now, which is pretty awesome itself, but it still cant compare to just sitting there working and then feeling your baby kick and move around. Its just amazing. Anyways I hope you guys are all doing well! Hopefully come Monday, we will get to see what we can start calling our little one!

First one of the year

Ok so I am totally lame, I know. Its almost the end of January and this is my first post. The past few months have been crazy, stressful and busy. And through it all I have gained so much understand and love for those who are in my life. We are getting ready to find out what the sex of our bundle of bouncing joy will be, and Phil and I are really excited. We both kinda feel it will be a boy, but who truly knows! I just want a healthy baby. I see pros to having a boy or a girl. Either way, I know that Phil and I are going to love it with all of our hearts. Everyone around us is having their own little ones, and it amazes me how much love and joy a baby can bring into your life. My sister Kayla LOVES babies. It is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. How she tries to help out in taking care of a baby, even if she has only been around that baby for 5 mins, she is in love. As everyday passes by I get more and more excited to be able to hold my baby in my arms. Hopefully I will be better and keeping up with this blog esp with the baby growing and the time getting closer for its enterance into this world. And I know for sure that a new one will be put with what the sex is so look for that one!
