coming up on 6 months!

I am so stoked! I can't believe we've been married (almost) 6 months now! We've grown and changed a lot since the big wedding day. Many of those changes coming from pregnancy on my part..but we're loving life:) Can't wait for our little baby Porter to come into our lives. I've been so anxious to start buying some baby clothes and accessories since my second month of pregnancy but I'm trying to be patient and wait until the baby shower has passed.

Deven and I will be starting school again next Thursday and we are both very excited to get back into the flow of things with our school schedules. And yay...we are taking a religion class together! :) This will help out a ton with F.H.E.:) And I have heard nothing but THE ULTIMATE BEST about the professor we're taking..he seems to be the most exciting and enthusiastic about the class.

Deven is also now starting a new job as a psych tech which he is pretty excited for..the hours work around his school schedule perfectly!!.. and I've just begun to take time off of work...due to our most recent vacation in 107-109 degree whether..i swelled up like a balloon and now have to keep my feet up and have a strict diet of almost no sodium. Hoping to be back in soon..i feel so helpless and lazy not working.

Pickin out a name...

So after much thought, Deven and I both fell in love with the name Porter Scott...the initials made me want to give our little boy a different middle name, either that or two of em...but this one is good enough. Although Porter is what we are sticking with now, it may change once we see our little bundle of joy when he arrives!

First kicks and discovering our little peanut's gender..

Worrying for weeks whether or not my baby was still alive Deven and I FINALLY felt it's first few kicks right after my appointment with WIC on August 20th around 3:50pm! Deven thought i made my tummy move but then realized the movement was more concentrated. We were both SOO excited!!

A few days later, Deven and I left for our week long vacation away from home..visiting Las Vegas and California with my parents and siblings, we came home to finally discover the gender of our baby...we're having a boy! September 2nd came along much too slowly for me. The small ultrasound room was packed! There were only 6 of us in there...but still..the room was TINY! There was no question on the gender though...heehee..and we were excited to hear our baby is strong and healthy and at this point weighs 1 lb 2oz. About 8 inches long! WHOOO!

I'm beginning to wonder if the year 2009/2010 is the year of males... of all the 6 friends/family of mine also expecting...none are expecting a baby girl...crazy!
