Our little man Lyric Waylon

So today was the big day and we were so happy to find out we are having a little boy. The whole time my husband and I both thought we were having a boy but many people thought it was a girl.

Well mother's instinct...Lyric Waylon showed it all.

A blog to check out!

Hey everyone my good friend from high school Katie is one of the most gorgeous women I have ever known inside and out. She has new blog all things hair and makeup. Totally awesome tips and ideas. You should check it out and totally follow this blog.

Her son is so freaking cute so you get some shots of him too on the blog so that is such a bonus.

Halfway there...crazy to think that

So today I am officially 20 weeks pregnant! It so strange to think that I am already halfway there. There has been so many crazy things that have happened in 20 weeks and I know now only the best is yet to come.

My first trimester was kinda of a breeze in the sense of having no morning sickness but that was the only thing that was easy. I was having a hard time coming to terms with being pregnant and had moments of joy and well as sadness. Its hard to admit that with the fear of judgment but it is the truth. Medically things have been a little off for me but I have been able to really understand what is happening and what is best for me and the baby for my pregnancy. You can't judge or take others experience or opinions to much in because everyone is different and every pregnancy is different.

As time as progressed and I have had the little tingles of my baby moving has helped me realize this is not a dream. I know it might be weird to say but some moments I actually think I am imagining the whole thing...I know I'm crazy no need to tell me cause my husband has first hand knowledge of this and shares it with me. LOL

Now that we are at 20 weeks and tomorrow we get to find out if we are having a boy or a girl things just seem to be getting better and better. I know there will be hard days coming but only greatness is going to be the end result of this and we will be holding our blessing and our family will grow one more :)

You can expect very honest, maybe sometimes too honest posts in the future as I track my experience of all this...good and bad.

Thanks for caring about my happenings and stopping by to read my posts. Love you guys :)

Monday is the big day

Okay so Monday at 3pm is our appt for our gender ultrasound! I couldn't be more excited and have been counting down the days.

So in honor of our great surprise I have put a poll on the right side of the blog and I would love to see what everyone predicts.

Please Please Please vote and come Monday we (if our baby doesn't start to be shy) will know if we are having our little man or princess.

Love you ALL!!!!

Names of our wonderful surprise

So last weekend my husband and I took a trip to see my niece and it was the funniest day. I miss that little girl so much. She is the smartest cutest girl ever! I know I am a little bias because her and I  share some DNA :) Okay so my niece told me and Uncle Josh that we should name the baby surprise! It was so cute and quite appropriate.

So for all the ones who want to know our baby will not be named surprise but here is what we are thinking:

If its a little boy: Waylon Dixon or Lyric Waylon
My husbands name is Joshua Waylon and we both really love his middle name. Then Dixon is for his grandfather. On the other hand we love the name Lyric. So we are not completley sure just yet.

If its a little princess: Stella Ann Presley 
We both just love the name Stella, then Ann is his moms middle name and then Presley because I just love Elvis.

So those are our choices and on the 22nd of November hopefully the baby is not shy and we will get know know what we are having :)
