Adventures in Pregnancy

Well, before I get to all the exciting pregnancy updates I thought we should first take a quick look at our Christmas Holiday.  Westin bought me a new camera for Christmas!  I LOVE it!  I would take a picture of it but... well you know.


Here is Westin at the Judd family Christmas dinner. This is when he decided to have just a mustache for a couple of days after his brother talked him into it.


Here is Jon (Westin's brother) playing with the remote control helicopters that Westin's dad had bought for Christmas.  The boys LOVED playing with them.  


Here is Westin with Aunt Chris playing the electric keyboard during Judd family dinner.  They sounded awesome.


Okay on to pregnancy news!

Here is Westin using his tie as a odor shield while cleaning up some throw-up that didn't make it to the toilet.  He has been so good at taking care of me.

Here I am filling out some paper work for my first doctors appointment

Westin and me waiting in the waiting room

Here is baby Smith!  He/She is currently 6.93 Cm long. Which puts me due a week and a half sooner than I thought I was! July 31, 2009 here I come!


The Dr's appointment went really well.  I felt like the Dr. Lamoreaux answered all my questions plus some.  I do have to go in again tomorrow and get my urine checked again.  I had too many ketones in my urine (+4 which is the highest/largest you can have) and ketones make you even more sick and nauseated.  So for today I have to stay home nibbling constantly on crackers, pasta and whatever else and constantly drinking 1 tsp of juice at a time. So hopefully tomorrow my ketones will be lower or I will have to go get an IV in order to get hydrated.  But still I am just happy, seeing my baby move on the ultrasound made it all better!

Anyway more posts to come! Please leave a comment!

I'm so sorry you're sick, it's the WORST! I agree, what a sweet husband to clean up puke, so not fun. But that sweet baby will be so worth it in the end. Though it won't make you want another one for a long time. I'm sorry girl, keep up updated, we're all worried and praying for you. We send all our love and support!

O my that is so much fun!! I remember the first time I saw my little baby on the ultrasound. It's the coolest thing! I am so excited for you two; it's quite a fun adventure! I hope you're not sick for too much longer... That's no fun! and P.S. Shoot for July 26th... I hear that's a pretty good day to have a baby. ;)

How sweet :) I agree with everyone that it's good you have an awesome husband who will take care of you! I really hope you feel better soon.

So, that's kind of gross that he cleaned up your puke...Ha ha, just kidding! I don't think Jon will do that for me! He's kind of a pansy when that happens though. ;) That's so awesome though! Cute little bean pod! :)

Chelsea, I'm soooo sorry you're so sick! Now I feel like a total wimp for complaining... and I'm glad Westin is taking care of you. The baby pics are so cute! I'm still amazed that this is really how babies get here!!!

I am so sorry that you have been so sick but I can promise you that it will all be worth it when you are holding that little baby in your arms. We found out yesterday that Megan is having a little boy. We are so excited! Your kids will only be about 2 months apart.
