Baby Shower
My special area teachers hosted a fantastic super hero shower for Henry. Teachers from every grade level attended. I got lots of great things. It was wonderful.

Went on Babymoon
We went on a fabulous road trip with the girls where we got to see Aimee in Atlanta, Nana and Grampy in Silver Springs and Holly, Dave, Peter, McKenzie and Andrew in Clearwater. We went to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and saw Hope and Winter from Dolphin Tale too. It was great!

Prental Tests: Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)

Husband/Partner Felt Baby Move for the First Time
For the past few mornings I have felt Henry kicking while laying in bed inn my back. Finally, Josh was able to feel him too and he gave Josh quite a strong kick too!

Found Out Baby's Gender
It's a boy! The girls and Josh could not be with me so I surprised them m with blue balloons and one white one with Henry written on it. I showed up during tennis with my balloons and ultrasound pictures announcing we were having a boy!

Picked a Name
We have had Henry picked it for a boy since before we were pregnant. We have decided on Edith Marie for a girl. I think it's a beautiful name. I first heard it on the show Downton Abbey. Nana loves it and days she had a girlfriend named Edith who was a lovely person and beautiful too.
Henry is a banner that Josh and I both love. It is both sweet and strong. We haven't completely decided on a middle name. It may be Noble or Joshua. I am leaning more towards Joshua lately. I think it would be very nice to honor his father that way. :)

The girls first ultrasound attendance!
Both Olivia and Amelia were able to attend my ultrasound appointment today. Olivia was a little unsure if wether or not she was comfortable watching our not until we all started ogling over ever movement the baby made. We got to see the baby open and close his/her mouth, wave hands and more. We even saw what might possibly be a penis but could also be umbilical cord. Still too soon to tell with accuracy.

Told My Boss About My Pregnancy
I finally told Mr. Gray about this pregnancy. He said congratulations and that he was happy for me. We are going to ask Kathy Thompson to cover my maternity leave. She has already agreed that she would!

Started Wearing Maternity Clothes
I wore a pair of my favorite maternity pants to work today. They are gray slacks with a waist that goes over the belly. They are very comfy and very small so they are perfect for early pregnancy. I purchased them from Goodwill for only a couple of dollars!

First Ultrasound
February 3rd was my first ultrasound. I was excited and scared at the same time. The last time I was at the clinic for an ultrasound, I found it my baby had no heartbeat at 14 weeks. This time was joyful! My little been looked perfect. 4.7 millimeters long with a strong heartbeat at 109 beats per minute. That is perfect for 6 weeks and 1 day. It was all wonderful news!

Heard Baby's Heartbeat for the First Time
I was lucky to be able to hear my baby's heartbeat at 6 weeks and 1 day. Pam said that it had probably just started beating that day. It was 109 beats per minute which is normal for so early (90-110 is expected). It was very reassuring!
