1 more week!

One More Week until we find out if we are having a boy or a girl... I can't wait! Everyone I know due in September (which is at a count of 6 right now) is having a girl.... except one. She found out today she is having a boy. If we are having a boy... those two boys will have quite a few girls to choose from come (20) years from now :) I don't know if I can wait one more week!!!!

Should Have..... and the most embarrassing moment!

I should have done the gender test at baby belly at 16 weeks... it's driving me crazy the fact that I still have to wait 2 MORE WEEKS! before I know if we are having a boy or a girl. It doesn't help that I have been literally stuck in bed for the past 3 days with a horrible sinus infection and it has really made the days CREEP by. Ugh May 4th can you PLEASE just hurry up and get here!!

Now for my most embarrassing moment. I always hated when you would go to a new class or have those "get to know you" games that you would have to play some where and the question is "What is your most embarrassing moment." I know I have had tons... but never embarrassing enough to actually remember after a couple of weeks have passed. I never would have anything to say to this question. However, I do now... even though I'm sure like the rest it will too pass and when asked the question, I won't be able to think of one. But, for right now, it is definitely engraved in my mind.

Like I said, I have had a pretty bad sinus infection for the past couple of days. I have called the doctor's office several times and I am waiting on my doctor to get a chance to look at my chart and get me an antibiotic. Anyways, I was feeling a little better on Monday (or so I thought) and decided to at least try and head to school for a couple of hours, hoping that once I got there I would start feeling better and be able to stay. Well, I made it to 10:30... and that's when it happened. All of a sudden I had this sudden urge to throw up. I knew I was not going to make it to the bathroom so I ran to the trashcan that is in THE FRONT OF THE ROOM. UGH! I puked in front of my entire 5th grade class. If I could have just waited 10 more minutes, the kids would have been in specials and none of them would have seen it. But no, I had to right then. The annoying thing, none of the kids even noticed at first. They were doing a group activity and were paying no attention to the fact that I just puked into the trashcan..... until the kid sitting next to the trashcan felt the need to announce to the whole entire class.... "Mrs. Cooper just puked!!" I mean really?! So then the entire class got quiet and I just proceeded to grab my things and leave. So embarrassing!! :)

16 weeks!

Tomorrow I will be 16 weeks along! I feel like it has gone by so slow and so fast at the same time! I just keep thinking, in 4 more weeks I will be halfway through my pregnancy already.... but then September sounds sooo far away! I think I will really start feeling like things are flying by once school is over and I won't be focused on other things.
I went to the doctor today and found out that my child really likes to scare it's momma! The doctor came in and it seemed to take her forever to find the heartbeat! I try not to look at the doctor's face because if she is going to tell me bad news, I don't want to see it on her face first. But she did eventually find it, on the complete opposite side that it was on last time and SUPER low down. Once I heard it, I breathed a huge sigh of relief and then said wow it's down there really low and that's when she said "it's probably a boy"...
Now, don't get my wrong. I will absolutely love this baby whether or not it is a boy or a girl. I know there are so many people out there who struggle with having children or can't have children that I am so grateful God has blessed me with being able to have children, but I was hoping for a girl. There has not been a girl born on Nick's dad side of the family for a hundred years or some crazy amount like that so we were really hoping to maybe have the first girl in the family after so long. So hearing her say that it's probably a boy, just made it seem so real. I know we haven't had an ultrasound to prove that it's a boy yet but I'm pretty certain that it is. I have always said that I wanted a boy first because I LOVED having an older brother, so I am very happy that when we do get a girl (because Nick said no matter what we will eventually adopt a girl because he really wants a daughter), our daughter will have an older brother like I did :) It really is awesome having an older brother so I will be very happy if it's a boy too!
4 more weeks until we know for sure though... thankfully I have 4 more weeks until school is out too so hopefully that will make things fly by!
