More like Chuck Norris

Sorry its been so long! I have no excuse...but, I do think that maybe Chuck Norris is more appropriate than Daniel Son. Let me explain. The other night Lee had just come home and he wanted to tell William hello....so, he leans down and goes "Hey William, whatcha doin?" and then puts his ear to my belly... and then BAM gets a roundhouse kick to the temple! I think it may have hurt Lee's feelings that his son would kick him in the head, but I think William is a comedic genius.

I finally uploaded all of my pictures from my camera from forever ago and decided even though they have nothing to do with William, I HAVE to post the pic of Lee and I dressed up as Dwight and Angela from The Office for Halloween. I also have some pics of William's room. We're not finished yet, so its kinda bare but the walls are painted (thanks to my lovely parents)and I'll try to be better about updating them!

Pregnancy update: I'll be 29 weeks pregnant on Monday...Ahhh! Oh, and I passed my gestational diabetes test (I failed the first one).

Daniel Son

So, I'm thinking maybe we should have named William the more fitting name of Daniel Son aka The Karate Kid. He has started kicking REALLY hard, its been pretty funny to see how much stronger he has gotten over the past two weeks. It went from "I think he may have just kicked" to "Oh my gosh, my entire stomach is moving." No one told me how weird it feels when they do that. Everyone said its like sweet little butterflies fluttering around. Definitely not true, but it is incredible all the same and so much fun to see him kick!

So lately we've been working on getting the baby's room together. I'm really excited to finally see it all come together. We're going with a western theme which Lee thinks is a good financial move since we'll be converting a "Texas" room into a "western" nursery and will get to use some of the same decor :)We're also about to experience our first parenting class at the hospital and tackle the job of registering for baby stuff. Which honestly, can be a little nerve racking. You want to make sure you're getting the absolute safest, durable, and practical items out there. There's so much!! But thankfully God has blessed us with many friends who are going through the same thing and have done a lot of research and who are generous enough to let us copy their registry!

No new pictures of William, but all of our appointments have gone well. Strong heartbeat, good growth etc. Hopefully we'll get some more soon. Time has flown by and I can't believe we'll get to meet him in four months!

It's a .......

BOY! Baby Eidson is a officially a boy, and will be named William Henry Eidson. If anyone names their new pet dog "William" in the next 4 months, I will personally come to your house, take your dog, and rename it.

Check out the pics from the latest ultrasound below, and no, the 3D picture/video is not abstract art. William refused to uncoil himself from what is apparently called the "fetal" position for the photo-op. Already causing trouble. Sweet.

12 week Ultrasounds

12 week ultrasounds are here! Or for those of us now on the Julian calendar, or just used to counting time in increments larger than 7 day periods, that is 3 months. Check out the hands! Little dude is saying "what's up" - the tech took it upon herself to place the words "Hi!" next the baby's hands. I feel "what's up" more accurately portrays our baby's disposition.
