1st Baby feeling!
On Thursday night Warren and I were in bed and Warren asked if I had felt the baby yet. I didn't really know, I mean it could be some bubbles or something. So Warren put his hand on my belly and we both held real still...and he felt a bump! A kind of gently nudging, so then I felt it and it was so breath taking. It made me feel like Wow I have a little person inside of me, it made it much more real. So then I couldn't fall asleep so I had my hands on my belly and Womp!! felt a good kick right against my hand and a couple seconds later there it was again. I started laughing because it suprised me so much. So then Warren had to feel it and he got one good kick and then the baby settled down. :) Then I had a really hard time falling asleep. It is just very exciting. This week we will find out if it is a girl or a boy. I don't have a real idea of what we are having so it will be fun either way.

18 week photo
Yep, so this is what I look like at 18 weeks. Warren is pretty excited that I am showing, and now I have to wear my loose pants or maternity pants. It is fun. I am trying to get in some exercise like 3 times a week so I don't get too flabby.

Everything is good!
Well I am at 18 weeks this week and everything is going pretty awesome. I have my second doctors appointment on Thursday and then my ultrasound to find out the baby's sex is on the 18th. My doctor wanted to wait till 20 weeks so that they can see all of the chambers of the heart. Warren is doing a great job on building a wall unit for our office so hopefully we can get some more things organized. I'm not worried about a baby room becuase the baby will be in a basinet for the first 2-3 months in our room. I went to deseret industries yesterday and hit the jackpot on maternity clothes. I got 2 pairs of jeans, jean capris, long jean skirt, 3 shirts, 2 dresses, brown dress pants,1 green skirt, 1 cardigan, 2 pairs of boots, and a pair of sandals. I got all that stuff for $57.00! I love D.I. If you have one in your area you should definitely check it out.
We are going to try to have a little super bowl get together with some friends this evening but I don't know if we will get anyone. Christine and Patrick came up with the idea but then we haven't spoken to them about it since then, and we wanted to invite some other people but I bet they will already have plans. So we will see how it goes. Either way I am doing a chocolate fondue tonight, Yum!!!

Ultrasound
Warren and I went to our first ultrasound on Thursday Dec. 18. It was a ton of fun! Our baby was hiding so the nurse had to push on my belly a bit and then he(we'll just call it a him till we find out) came flying around into view. I ended up being farther along then we thought so I was at 12 weeks and he was 2 inches long. My due date is July 4th! Warren is happy because that is his favorite holiday. It was very exciting to hear his heartbeat. The sweetest thing was that he kept sticking his leg up, it was just an amazing experience to be able to see our baby.

Hodge Christmas party
Every Year Warren's family gets together with his mom's side of the family, the Hodges, and we have a Christmas Party in Simi Valley CA. Usually it is at Bruce and Dottie's or Denny and Diane's house but this year Bruce's son Tom and his lovely wife Becky hosted the party at their house which I must say was absolutely gorgeous. It makes me pine for the older architecture that Las Vegas is sadly lacking. It was also great because their house is set up with a playroom for the kids so this year all the kids had something to do rather than looking at us adults all the time wishing we would take them home. :) So I think we should do this again.
There were several funny events of the evening. Every year someone ends up with a very large pair of purple panties, Becky was the lucky recipient this year. But to add to the fun underwear department Tom donated a racoon pair of underwear which Diana was happy to receive.
Diana first picked out a set of those turning push up handles....she tried to say that they are pushups for her chest, hence the push up picture. But Sandy was not put off and took it from her. I like Ron's Captain Morgan pose, he is a hilarious individual and definitely perks up the room.
I was the lucky recipient of a turkey Fryer which Becky and Tom were kind enough to put in as a present. (don't tell but we stuck it back in their garage..Shhhhhh.....) >:D and Warren picked a reed diffuser which he kept because I wanted it. :) Aren't husbands wonderful?
For Christmas Eve we are going to Warren's parent's house, Linda And Dave, then Christmas day we will hang out with my folks. I am looking forward to this two week break, I'm sure I won't get very much of my things done but oh well, it will just be nice to relax a little. Hope everyone has a merry christmas, Love you.

Whoo hoo look at my skillz!
I figured out how to upload this Jukebox from Jango. I recommend this website to everyone I know. You can listen to all kinds of music and there are no commercials or ads and you can decide how many other artists you want to listen to.
