Our beautiful baby

Today I had an ultrasound after some concerns that I had last week. After my appointment with my doctor, he wanted me to have one to be sure, even though he thought all was well. Here is a shot of our beautiful baby! Willie was unable to attend because he had to work, but my mom came along. I think she enjoyed seeing all of the different shots they took. It's still hard to believe that there is a human growing inside me.

We are busy getting ready for the holidays. We are heading down to Madison Saturday and Sunday to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my family. In January we will head to Willie's side.

We have also been busy getting things ready for the baby. We have the room painted, thanks to Tom and Jamie (or should I say to Jamie), and our furniture is put together. I would love to post pictures, but my computer has recently taken a crap and will not stay on longer than 1 minute.

I hope everyone has a great Christmas! The Christensens are looking forward to an eventful 2012!

Baby C is on its way!

We are so happy to announce that we are expecting our first (human) little bundle of joy! While we love our cats dearly, it is time that we stop treating them like children and dressing them up for the holidays. So now I can play dress up with the little one!

I found out I was pregnant the morning of my birthday. For some reason, I just had to take a pregnancy test. When two lines showed up, I almost wet myself. I wasn't quite sure what to do, so I called Willie at work and told him that "I might be pregnant." His response : "How do you know?" I went to the doctor that day to confirm it, and YES, it was true! There is a little one roaming in there.

Approximate due date: May 28th, 2012. Perfect timing as a teacher.

I'm trying really hard to relax as these weeks are really crucial to development. I think Willie is trying very hard to understand everything, but there is so much to know that he is overwhelmed.

As far as the kitties, they don't know what hit them. I believe Toby is stressed because he has a Urinary Tract Infection. Poor guy :( Marble is Marble, fat as can be.

I must head to bed now. The exhaustion has set in full force!
