21 Week Check up

We went to the Dr yesterday. She said that everything was looking good. She said I am measuring perfect and that she went over the ultrasound report from July 1st and everything looked real good. He has two kidneys, two lungs, etc. I am so ready to see him again, but we didn't get to yesterday. We did hear his heart beat for just a second. The nurse was the one who came in and did that. It took her a while to find it and then only held it there for a second. She didn't ask us if we heard it or anything. She was not the friendliest, but oh well at least we did hear it. Dr Salas is so nice. She is so easy to talk to and very friendly. We were in and out of the Dr's office within 30 minutes. It was very nice. When using Dr. Bryan it took at least an hour. I guess that is the advantage of using a Dr that is new to the area.
I scheduled our child birth classes today. We are taking the ABCs of Baby Care, Breastfeeding class and Child birth basics. They are all one night, two hour classes. I am very excited and can't wait!
I have started telling Danny that we need to go and register. He is not real excited about it. I told him I could go and do it without him, but he didn't like that idea either. He thinks we have everything we need...HAHA!!! I just really want to get registered before I am too big to walk around the store...lol. I could always do it online, but I like to see and feel things in person. I have however been looking online at bedding and stuff, just to get an idea. I have found one I love at babiesrus.com. Danny likes it too, but didn't seem to like it as much as I did.
Last night Parker was moving around like crazy. I can't wait until Danny can feel it too. I am ready to start feeling him all the time!!

I think I have finally started filling the flutters of Parker moving around in there. I don't notice them very often, but when I do it is amazing! I can't wait to start really feeling him. I really can't wait until Danny can feel him too!!
I have been trying really hard to sleep on my sides since that is what is suggested, but it is so hard. I am not very comfortable on my side. I also probably get up to go to the bathroom 5-10 times a night (ok, may be a little exaggerated, but that's what it feels like). I hate that!! I have decided to start cutting myself off from drinking at least by 7:30. I hope that helps!
Not much else new going on. I am leaving on Wednesday to go to Missouri to visit some family. I am very excited about it! I haven't been up there in three years! Danny isn't getting to go because he will have to work. I really want to take him up there one day though. He has never been to Missouri, so I think he will really like it.
Ok, I guess I have rambled enough for today.

Parker Blaze

Well we went to the doctor yesterday and found out its a BOY!! It was amazing to see him moving all around. He weighs around 7 oz. Danny and I were both kind of shocked that it was a boy. We just knew it was a girl since everyone else has boys. We are very excited about a boy though. I didn't care either way, but Danny has wanted a boy since before we were even married. He always said if we had a girl she was going on EBay...of course he was joking, but he really wanted a boy. He had gotten to where he was ok with a girl though.

We have compromised on the name Parker Blaze. I have always loved Parker and Danny wanted to name him Blaze Jericho. Well, obviously we had to compromise somewhere.

I saw my new dr. yesterday also. She is really nice. (in case you are not aware my OBGYN retired June 30th.) She said that everything looked good. I asked her about my ankles already swelling and she said it was normal since it is the summer. That made me feel a lot better.
