ULTRASOUND!

Well, we had the ultrasound today! What an amazing experience! Baby was VERY active! We were told that everything looks great and that baby is healthy and right on track. My due date remains November 15th. I am 19 weeks and 3 days to the day! The head is about 2 inches wide. The tech was able to get some good shots...the image above is baby's face :). We were also able to see the little feet and the spinal cord. Enjoy! Kim

Well, this weekend was busy as ever! We took a trip to brainerd on saturday to buy our windows for the basement- slowly but surely it's comin along. We also managed to squeeze in some time to shop for cribs. Needless to say we were at our wits end by the end of that experience... out of 4 furniture stores you'd think at least one would carry cribs- nope. We were offered by people to buy theirs- one of whom looked like he had smoked a little too much you know what and was sweating profusely so we took a pass on that offer...:)

After brainerd we went out to leech lake for Carol's (chuck's sister) 40th birthday. It was fun and nice to see everyone. They had a pig roast so I was of course in heaven with all the food! :) We even had a couple of people ask us when we were going to start our family...they obviously been drinking and were dancing around the "are you pregnant" question... he he :) We forgot our camera so we weren't able to take any pictures of us or of the family...bummer. Maybe next time...

Enjoy your week!

PS- Our ultrasound is tomorrow! :)

I had another doctor appointment yesterday. Everything looks good! I heard the heartbeat again which is always amazing to hear! Doc says the heart rate is about 150 and that we have a very active little baby. Baby was movin' and groovin'! We are looking forward to next Tuesday's ultrasound appointment! Chuck and Kim

Hello!

Welcome to our blog! This is our first "official" blog! We want to share with all of you our big and little journeys in life! We hope you enjoy reading our blogs and seeing our pictures!

So where do we start? Well, we're 4 1/2 months pregnant! We're due November 15th. We are VERY excited and ready for a new chapter in our lives. So far I've had a great pregnancy and feel incredible! Our big appointment (the ultrasound) is next week. We hate to disappoint any of you, but we will not be finding out the sex of our baby. We will keep you posted!

Chuck is keeping VERY busy with the business and his projects have included stone work, basements, patios etc. In fact, he's so busy that he now has employee through the staffing agency! He's done some advertising but a lot of his business comes from word of mouth.

I'm still working at the insurance agency and enjoy it. I work in commercial lines and am taking classes towards becoming a Certified Insurance Service Representative (CISR). There are 5 classes I need to complete and test out of. So far I've completed and passed 3 tests. I hope to earn my designation by the end of September. Last October I took my passion for scrapbooking a little bit further and became a Close to My Heart consultant. I love their products and have so much fun with it! If you're into scrapping, check out my website!

Tuff and Buddy are still our spoiled "little pups"! Although they are labs, they continue to think they're our little "lap dogs". They are so much fun, but I think they are going to have a rude awakening once baby arrives!

Well, that's all for now. We'll continue to keep all of you posted!
Chuck and Kim
