23 Weeks!!!

Well today we have hit 23 Weeks! Even though this weeks has been a little more crazy than usual Ashley and Caden are growing very nicely. Caden is getting strong day by day and now it seems is on the same sleeping pattern as Ashley. Just from my side of things, if you haven't been able to tell this is Jon, it is the coolest thing for little Caden to react to my voice or a little poke on her belly. I have to admit that it is fun to poke Ashley's belly and then to feel Caden kick back. Things are going well and this weekend we are planning to do a major make over to our home to get things ready. Here are the most recent Sonogram photos. I am totally amazed by science and God!

20 Weeks already!

February 5, 2009:
Today, Jon and I found out that we are going to have a baby girl!! We are so excited. During the sonogram, she kept doing flips and made it difficult for the tech to determine the sex. But, she finally slowed down enough for us to figure it out and I don't think I have ever seen a bigger, more proud smile on Jon's face. And, despite what so many people think, we are only having one baby! We had the tech double check to make sure. She told us that Caden is right on schedule and looks very healthy. Here recently she has been kicking A LOT! I can't imagine what the kicking will be like when I am further along and she is stronger. We both love her so much already and can't wait until she gets here.

9 Weeks

This week is Ashley's 9th week. This week started out a little better than the last couple of weeks, well with less morning sickness. Ashley is still feeling sick but with a little less coming back up. Last Thursday we were able to see our little itty bitty baby, which is right now about 1" long! It was so exciting to not only see but hear the baby. It is a miracle! We are looking forward to the 20th week when we find out if the baby is a girl or a boy. We will be posting our baby's first photo later on hopefully today. Everything is so exciting.
