We're Shannon and Jen, thirty somethings living in Corvallis, Oregon with our daughter Finnian and our fur babies Lilly, Brody, Tater, and Damon. This is a blog about our daily adventures and our life as new parents.

off we go...
Today is our 20 week appointment or as we like to refer to them, our visits with Miss Finn. :) We feel spoiled this week because we just got to see her on Wednesday at our ultra-sound appointment! These visits are just routine but we're so excited because each one that passes means we're one month closer to "meeting" our little girl. :)

blessed...
Only two more weeks until our ultrasound appointment! It's worse than waiting for Christmas as a kid! I'm excited about the possibility of finding out if we have a sprout or sproutette but mostly I just want to see a healthy baby. :) It's like a little visit with our baby and so amazing it's hard to be patient. So far so good and I would like to continue on that trend.
People are starting to ask me when I'm due and every morning getting dressed is an adventure. It's like all my clothes were washed and dried on high over night, each day things are a little more snug. I'm getting creative and long tops and stretchies have been my best friend! :)
I love it! I love watching my belly grow and feeling sprout move and knowing that I'm oh so very lucky to get to experience this. I feel blessed. :)

glub glub...glub glub...
We heard the heartbeat again on Friday, which I have to say, never gets old. :) We got some information about selecting a pediatrician and best of all, everything is still looking good! A little bonus is we got our paperwork to schedule our 20 week ultra sound appointment! We can't wait to see our little one again, make sure everything is still a-ok, and hopefully find out if it's a Sprout or Sproutette!
Jen and I have both been saying "she" and "her" but honestly we have no idea. A feeling, but really no idea. And if we're not having a girl it will be good to get used to saying "he" and "him". We honestly just want a healthy little one, the name we've chosen is gender neutral and so are the nursery ideas and will be happy either way. :) My mom (Nana) is tied with 6 grand-daughters and 6 grand-sons and she's rooting for a boy. Jen's mom (also Nana) only has a grand-son and is rooting for a girl. I don't think Grandpa/Poppi/Poppa really have an opinion. :) 3 more weeks and we'll know!
