Baby is 12 weeks!!!


Thursday, August 23rd, Baby turned 12 weeks. The Sunday prior, I started having some problems. I started bleeding. VERY SCARY! I immediately called my physicians emergency hot line and talked to the doctor on-call. She told me it could be due to my progesterone supplements, or it could be other things. She scheduled me for an ultrasound for Monday morning. Needless to say, none of us slept Sunday night. I think I may have slept for 45 minutes. I was so freaked out that I needed Mom to go along with Tim and I. We had the ultrasound and everything is fine. The bleeding is called implantation bleeding and is fairly common. She showed us on the ultrasound where it is coming from and it is no where near the baby. She said it is not hurting the baby in any way. Also, because baby is now 12 weeks, she said I could stop the progesterone. Hallelujah! Baby's heartbeat ranged from 168-171, which they said is perfect. Some people say that means it is a girl, but still too early to tell. The tech tried to tell, but couldn't. Baby seems to be perfect and is quite the comedian. I think we are going to have a very active baby on our hands. The baby was kicking, turning, spinning, and NEVER stood still. That is until the tech decided to get some pictures for us to take home. At that point, Baby decided to face the camera. We all cracked up. So, all of the four pictures she gave us, look the same. Baby is facing us and waving. They gave us a video and baby was blowing kisses and waving. It is hilarious!!! I guess Baby knows that Daddy is a picture fanatic and will constantly be taking pictures!




Baby Stover's 1st High School Musical Party!

On Saturday, August 18th, we were invited to Hannah's High School Musical 2 party. We felt VERY privileged, since all of the other invitees were 10 year olds. Hannah informed us that if we were coming, we needed to show up in HSM t-shirts. Since they don't make them in adult sizes, Tim, Laura, and I decided to make our own. We had a blast making them. We purchased all of the items at Target and headed home to make them, while watching HSM2 to get ideas. Here is a picture of our finished project!!! (notice my shirt... an arrow pointing to future HSM 3 fan)



When we got to the party, the three of us walked in and Hannah LOVED them. We also did some fun things throughout the movie and Hannah told us that we were awesome!!! It is fun to be cool to a ten year old. Hannah has decided that she is going to be the cool cousin to Baby Stover, just like we are the cool cousins to her! The party was fun, but having 16 ten year olds screaming during most of the movie is a little overwhelming. The kids had a blast and we were SO glad we were invited.
