my hands & knees!

soooo i a few days ago i fell. yup. not too bad though. baby is okay. i was "running" in the morning. Now mind you- since Ive gotten a little bit bigger my runs have turned into slow jogs and walks. So i have definitely toned my "runs" down a ton! Anyhow, I was "running" a few days ago and i jogged over the same railroad tracks I usually cross over, but this time I felt myself lose my balance and I started to feel myself fall forward. I couldnt catch myself and I kept thinking as I was falling that I couldnt catch myself. so i stumbled and hit the dirt and rocks with my hands and knees. my knees took the biggest part of the fall. There were cars around and some people so I was totally embarased! So i got up real quick and called tony and started to cry as I told him that I just fell and that he had to come get me. And then I quickly sped walk to get around the corner and I sat on the curb to see if my knees were ok..... they weren't.... they were bleeding and my right knee was totally scraped- to the point where you saw the white meat! oy! I felt sick looking at it and cried some more and then tony finally pulled up. He was sad that I was sad. We got home and I hopped in the tub to wash it off with soap and then Tony cleaned it up with some peroxide as i was all squimish and grossed out! Then I called the doctors office to see if I should come in. The nurse asked if I had certain signs and symptoms and luckily I didn't and she said baby should be okay! poor me and my knees! but thank goodness i didnt fall on my belly and that baby is okay!

On Friday, January 4th, we had our very first ultra sound! The technician couldn't tell what the sex of the baby was though. She said the baby kept moving it's legs so she wasn't sure- but she did say at first that it was a girl, then later 70% it's a boy, and then 80% it's a boy! So.... we'll have to get another one done!

lil baby cousin

my little niece loves the little baby inside my belly. She always says "baby cousin." Yesterday and today she said "baby cousin" " i love it" and then she prayed really quick for baby "dear lord bless baby cousin, in Jesus name amen." she's soooo cute!
