16 weeks!!

It was so wonderful being home with our families this Holiday season!  But Ahhhh, we're home from all of our traveling!  Thank Goodness.  Just feels good to know we don't have to travel again for a while.  I mean not to mention the move we are about to endure, but after thats done, we have vowed to each other (Shaun and I), we will not be traveling anymore for at least a year, maybe more.  We have just got to stop, especially with a new baby coming into our lives!!  Brooklyn needs to get settled into preschool and since the military wont be moving us anymore, there is no reason to use moving every 5/6 months as an excuse.  So, needless to say, we will be accepting visitors at any time, so please, feel free :).  Granted we don't know where we will be stationed yet, but still, feel free to join us at any time!  Just preferrably not the week before, of or after June 21st (this obviously excluding immediate relatives, hehe)!!  But yes, its time for us to finally call a house a home for a while, not a temporary residence!  Ahhh, and the sound of that sound amazing!!  This move we have coming up will make number 20 for us.  Yikes is right.  But we are very organized people and we only have the things we need in life everything else is nicely organized in plastic bins.  haha.  It sure helps the "spring" cleaning!!!  So as you can tell, we are anxious to find out where our "HOME" will be!! 

We went to the doctor again on January 5, and it was so great hearing the heartbeat again!!!  Baby Jalapeno would no stop moving.  The doctor would get the doppler on it, we'd hear the heart beat, then almost instantly it'd start tumbling around and she'd have to go on the hunt again really quick.  She said she wouldn't be surprised if I started to feel the baby almost any day now!!!  With as active as it was during the doppler, I am very excited for this!  Not only am I excited to feel it for myself, i'm very excited for Brooklyn and Daddy to feel it kick!!  They talk to the baby daily and its got to be one of the sweetest things of the pregnancy thus far.  The heartbeat on this doctors visit has definitely been a top rank for me.  Sure did make me teary eyed.  Either way though, i'm so ready to feel this little bugger move!!!! 

Since we are moving, our next Ultrasound Appointment is scheduled for January 21st!!!  This is when we are hoping to find out if we are having a Boy or a Girl!!!  Fingers Crossed and Prayers Made that the baby is laying properly!!!!

So i'll be keeping up with my blogs from here on out, at least thats the goal!!  My baby bump is getting bigger, all belly!  I've only gained 1.8 lbs!!!  And this pregnancy is right on track!!!!!! 

And.  Thanks to everyone for keeping us in your prayers!!!  We miss and love you all!!!

Shaun, Steph, Brooklyn & Our Baby Jalapeno!!!
