Well Amy tagged me and can you believe it I am actually participating.....So I am supposed to take a picture of something in my house that tells a special story and as you all know I am in between residences awaiting to move to Germany and not to mention I am in Indy visiting my sissy so I substituted my house for hers. I choose Amy as my item in "my" house that tells a special story in my life. Amy has always been my inspiration ever since I was itty bitty I always wanted to be just like her and she hated it...needless to say it only brought us closer. I am so thankful for the wonderful sister I have in my life. The coolest part to this story is we both are pregnant and due exactly 2 months apart and we are going to be sharing the most wonderful and miraculous gift God could give so close together and I am truly thrilled about that. I love you Amy!!!!




The next item to do was to photograph items in my purse I can't live without and I would say it would be my hand cream, Tylenol because since my pregnancy I have headaches all the time, Tums for that wonderful heartburn being prego brings, of course my phone that's my life all in one, and my newest addition to my purse i cant live without are airheads I am addicted to them now. There is one thing missing but he can't fit in my purse and he is so for from me but if he could fit it would be my wonderful husband Scott. I love you Baby..and miss you so much!!!

Well now I have to tag someone and I am going to tag my Mommy Karen and I know she is looking at this saying "I don't have a blog Courtney!" and guess what mom this means you have to start a blog. I need to keep up with you while I am in Germany so get to Ma I hope to see it up and running pronto!!!

ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!

Well everybody its a GIRL!!!!!

I went for my 15 week ultrasound and found out that Scott and I are having a girl we have decided to name here Olivia Grace. I am really excited although Scott was hoping for a boy he is still really excited. Her profile shows she is going to have some big lips like me and a nose like me. Today she was waving at my mom and I and in the first picture you can see it sort of. Her heart rate was 154 bpm. I am leaving to stay with my sissy on Wednesday in Indianapolis and it sounds like we are going to have a concert extravaganza. Well I will keep you all posted.

doctor's visity

So yesterday I had my second baby doctor's visit and we were supposed to be able to hear the heartbeat but since I am not the skinniest person they were unable to hear the heart beat with the Doppler but the heartbeat was registering at 158/160 bpm so that's good. I go back for an ultrasound on May 19 which is a little less than 2 weeks from now and we will hear the heartbeat... YAY!!! Well Scott has been in Germany since April 27 and I will have to say its been quite nerve racking for me. He tells me today that its looking like at least 30 more days till I can get over there and of course I did not like the sounds of that. I miss him so much and being pregnant and extra emotional makes it even harder for me. Well the doctor did tell me that the epidural is still a no go but he did say I could possibly have something that is like a birth canal block but it will not help with my contractions but I still think i I am going to try and do it without any of that stuff. I also have still been loosing weight. I have started getting a baby bump also and had to switch to some maternity clothes because my other pants were getting uncomfortable. I went to see Baby Mama also and it was a wonderful cute movie I think anyone could enjoy it. Talk to ya next time!!
