28 weeks and Easter!

Easter was a ton of fun this year, I can on;y imagine how much fun it will be to have the baby around next year! It was fun to play with Noah and Brieah and think that next year Baby Trey will be about their age!

Well, here I am at 28 weeks! I can't believe how fast the time has flown, and how fast my belly has too. I look back at pictures and seriously wonder what I was thinking when I "thought" I was showing. People probably thought I was some weirdo walking around rubbing my "tummy"... now at least it is sticking out so far they know that there is a reason. Except now, I just sit there feeling him move around and play all over inside me, and people will as me if everything is OK since I am just sitting there holding my stomach... I then feel stupid and just say "Oh he is just moving around." It is fun to feel him kick around and move, but I can't wait to just hold him in my arms! Since he has been moving around a lot, it has been exciting for Will to get to feel him more. Every morning, Will, will roll over and just stick his hands on my stomach.... waiting for him to move. He is going to be such a great dad! My Students at school also enjoy my growing belly. They will make comments like... "your stomach is getting bigger, "your baby must be really growing", and one of my favorites is when one of my boys told me "don't get mad, cause it's not good for the baby!" They are so cute!

Well... 'till next month... or unless something really exciting happens and I decided to write about it or post pictures! :)

24

24 years old and 24 Weeks pregnant!

Will brought these balloons to school with some flowers. My students are still asking me "So are you 24 or 42?" My wonderful husband, also got me a 4D ultrasound for! I am so excited...

I also decided to take up baking... I made this bread from scratch.... First loaf = kinda scary. Second Loaf = a little less scary!

I think I need some more practice, before Will will let me be a housewife! JK :)

Valentine's Day and Birthday!!!

Valentines' weekend, we made a last minute trip! Will's little brother Beau plays basketball for a Jr. college in Monterey. He had a game that weekend and we happened to have school of on the next Monday, so Will and I decided to go surprise him and see him play. Monterey was beautiful and a ton of fun. We went to the aquarium and drove along the beautiful coast.

When planning the trip, 2 days before we left, we decided to go up to San Francisco as well, since neither of us had ever been there. It was a blast. We spent Friday and Saturday in Monterey. Then drove to San Francisco Saturday afternoon. We got there and went straight to the Golden Gate Bridge right at sunset. By the time we left there, it was dark and SCARY. I had given up on San Fran. It was nasty and dirty. We were scared to park the car and walk to our hotel! But needless to say, I am glad we did. The next morning we woke up early and ran, literally, all over the whole city, and it was a blast!!!! Highlights from the trip.

Waiting for a trolley- for over and hour!

Lumbard Street- The Crookedest St.

We had so much fun together. Sunday night for Valentines day, we went to the Cheesecake Factory and waited for 3 hours! It was crazy, but still a ton of fun. We we exhausted from running around all day, so it was nice to sit ans relax. We also walked around the Stores at Union Square, which was fun too! We flew out Monday afternoon, so we got up really early Monday morning, because the guy at our hotel told us that we needed to go to Haight and Ashburry... and that there were really nice shops there. It was so dumb... note to self- do not go there- full of scary/crazy hippies and bums everywhere, even at 9 in the morning! It was an interesting way to end our quick trip to San Francisco. I told Will that the next time we go back, he will be able to help carry the baby (or kid) around! :)

Baby Update!!!

Well this post is a little late... This is me at 16 weeks... I thought I was huge and that I was 'showing' ... what was I thinking?

These were only taken one day apart.... Some days I looked Pregnant, others I just looked bigger than normal.

Here I am at 20 weeks! Half way there...and once again, these were only taken days apart, yet my belly looks different in all of them. (Some were even on the same day!)

Same Day

Enough with the boring pictures of me and my belly... now for the exciting part of what is INSIDE there!

It's a BOY! We had already decided if it was a boy that we would name him after Will. He and his dad have the same name. Will's grandma is Billie and her father was William. We decided to keep the namesake alive and name him after his daddy and grandpa-

William Trent Scarlett III

However, Will goes by Will and his dad goes by Trent... so baby will go by TREY!

Baby Trey showing off his long legs....

Cute Little Foot
Profile and arm!

After finding out it was a boy we went out to celebrate and bought him a few little outfits!

I am now 22 weeks, and we are getting more and more excited every day and can't wait for him to arrive! He has really started moving around and I love being able to feel him. It makes me realize that there actually is something in there, and my stomach isn't just growing! It is such a special feeling, sometimes I just lay there waiting for him to wiggle around! I wish Will got to feel him more, the other night he was really squirming, and Will was able to feel him from the outside (a little). I figured I better document these feelings I am having right now, because I am sure in the weeks to come I won't appreciate the arm in my ribs or the foot in my back, but for now I LOVE the little movements he is making!!!

More pictures!!!!

This was the first picture we got of our little 'gummy bear' (as the doctor so lovingly kept referring to it as at this apt.- I prefer to refer to it as a new fruit each week.... i think it was a prune here!) 9 weeks This is another profile of baby from our last apt (12 weeks)- aka a peach. Apparently no one else can tell what the other one is (from the last post), beside it's mama... it is so clear to me :) This one looks a little creepy to me, but whatever... I just can't wait to see it's cute face/profile in real life!

Love you Baby!

Welcome Scarlett Baby!!!!

Well it's official... we are expecting baby to arrive June 29th 2010! We couldn't be more excited! We have actually know for quite some time now, in fact i took the pregnancy test right before I posted my last blog!!!!

I found out a few days before Will's birthday... so I decided to keep it a secret from him and tell him on his birthday! Every other birthday surprise that I had for him had been spoiled, so I thought what better a surprise this could be. Except for the fact that I had to keep it inside. I think that this is the best secret I have ever kept... I didn't even tell my mom or sister (probably one of the hardest things ever, besides not telling Will right away!) I kept it is for 2 days!!! I kept trying to get Will to open his present early, but he is stubborn and refused!!!

I went and got UNLV baby clothes, one for a boy and one for a girl. I wrapped them up with the pregnancy test and got him a card about being a good DAD.... He was a little confused after opening the card!

I woke him up early... he doesn't know what he is about to find out!!!!

The confusion after reading the card....

Seeing the baby clothes!

The officialness of the pregnancy test :)

Will telling the good newss to our family, by showing them the presents I got him!

Needless to say, we are so happy and excited to start our little family! June 29th couldn't come sooner.... as long as I keep feeling the way I do. Haven't been sick yet, and let's cross our fingers!

it's about time....

I know it's been a while, but we have been super busy. Will started his new job, and his last semester of graduate school, we both got new callings, I started another school year.... between our lives, church and our families.... we tend to keep schedules filled up! So heres a few pictures to document our crazy lives.....
