Like I said in the previous blog.. I am still learning!!! I was trying to get the photos in with that post, but I couldn't get it to work.. anyway.. The first photo is Clint at 17 weeks, and in that photo it shows his heart beating at 153 bpm. In the second photo (13weeks), I like to call that his " it's a hard life picture" because he is resting his arm on his forehead! And in the third photo (13weeks) Mr. Clint Lee Carver is showing his manhood to the whole world!!!

It's a Boy!

Hello everyone! Thanks to my best friend Elizabeth, I now have my very own blog! I am still learning, so I may get things a little backwards for the first couple of posts!
I am sure that everyone is curious about the baby! As of tomorrow, August 23, 2009 I am 18 weeks pregnant (4 1/2 months), and our due date is Jan 22, 2010! We are going to have a little "snow baby" as Jonathans mom, Debbie, says! Jonathan and I found out at our 13 week visit to the doctor that we are having a little Boy. We were a little skeptical at first because it was so early to be able to tell the sex of the baby. But, this past week at our 17 week visit, we are definitely sure that it is a boy! Names were no problem for us... If it was going to be a girl we were going to name her Lillian (Lily) Aline Carver. I have ALWAYs loved the name Lily, it is just do dainty and cute; and Aline after my precious grandmother! And for a Boy.. Jonathan always said that he wanted to name him HANK... haha.. I told him that when he said that name it sounded like he was trying to clear his throat... so one day Jonathan came home and said "What about naming him Clint Lee?" and I totally fell in love with that name! Clint after the old western cowboy actor "Clint Walker" and Lee after his great grandfather (his moms side)! So, here we are with little Clint Lee Carver!!!! As of August 18, 2009 he weighs 7oz and has a heart beat of 153 bpm! We go for our full anatomy scan on Sept 8, there they will look at his heart (and all the chambers), kidneys, spine, etc. We are super excited!
Last Saturday Aug 15 I was laying on the couch watching Tv and I had this weird feeling in my stomach.. I thought that it might be the baby, but I just wasn't sure. It felt like little tiny butterlies. Then Sunday night, Jonathan and I were sitting on the couch studying for his plumbing exam, and there he was again.. but this time it was much stronger. This time it felt like heavy butterflies, and I definelty knew that was my little baby in there moving! It is so amazing to be that I have another little life growing inside of me; I have 2 heart beats in me; God's miracles are so wonderful! It is still hard for me to believe that Jonathan and I are going to be parents; I am nervous and excited all at the same time, but I know that we are going to have plenty of help and little Clint will feel love from every direction! We are SO BLESSED!
I will try to keep everyone posted as to what is going on with us, meanwhile please keep us in your prayers! Love you all!
