Jim and I did have a GREAT Christmas and New Years.......I can't believe we are in 2010!!! Ainsley will be here before we know it! We are starting to get all of her things ready!! All of the furniture is here and put together in the nursery. The painter is hopefully coming tomorrow to get the room all ready! I can't wait. I will post pics of before and after!!<div><br /></div><div>Jim and I also went and started registering! This was so much fun....but very stressful at the same time! We have a LOT to learn. There are so many different types of bottles, diapers, creams, strollers, etc. We did get somethings registered at Babies R' Us and we are also going to go to Target. Here is a picture of Jim testing out one of the strollers.....I can't wait till we have her here and actually in the stroller! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdwTYsvc3SO88VbsFCxit2fh5ddT2_wR6iFIhz5zM2qfY84-mAOnAOBoykCHBfvVKB-gs15ns-a8luoIPQjckrsU7MyYd_K5MctR0QrzkPy03jk0cw5DA-t0f5Bxkwb-Fw846ukmWGwkM/s320/IMG_0565.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421935789376362082" /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>I am now 26 weeks and 3 days pregnant!!

The colored part of the eye still doesn't have too much pigmentation, so it is still too early to guess the color of her eyes! Though I am hoping she has Jim's beautiful blue eyes :)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">My goal this year is to start updating the blog at least twice a week!

I hope everyone had a FABULOUS Christmas. We certainly did :) Jim and I are so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. We headed to my Grandmother's house (mom's mom) Christmas Eve morning and spent time with family. My dad's family also lives near there, so Jim and I headed over to my Aunt Debbie's house to visit with them as well! Overall, it was a GREAT time had by all!

Baby Ainsley is moving all the time now! Jim and I can just sit and watch her moving in my belly.....so neat and weird!!! We have got to start getting things ready for her! We have a lot to do on her nursery and we haven't even registered for anything yet. We are going to start a baby class on January 7th....I am so excited to learn more about the whole process!

Baby Cobb is 16 weeks and 1 day old :) We go November 3rd for our next Dr.'s appointment....and if all goes well we will find out the sex! Baby Cobb is about 4 and 1/2 inches long and 3 and 1/2 ounces. I have gained 3 pounds so far. Hopefully, I will start to feel the baby move soon! They say this possible at starting at 16 weeks....but everyone is different!

Well....we went to the Dr. yesterday, and we are now 15 weeks along. The baby's heartbeat was 156 beats per minute....which is great she said! Even more exciting is that we will HOPEFULLY find out the sex in a little less than 3 weeks! YAY!!! If you know me,you know patience is NOT one of my strong suits. SO we will go back to the Dr. November 3rd to find out girl or boy. I can't wait to know so we can quit calling Baby Cobb an "it"!!

I can't wait!! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;">So....what is happening to the baby at 14 weeks?? Well, Baby Cobb is about the size of a clenched fist.

Jim and I have decided to start a blog so that all of our friends and family can follow along with us as we start this AMAZING journey in our life! We are thrilled beyond words to be expecting our first child April 6th! God has truly blessed us with this little miracle :)</span></span><br /><div><br /><div><div><div><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;">We went to the doctor yesterday for a health screening test. As you can see from the pictures above.... everything looked great! Baby Cobb is growing and looking very healthy! We are now 12 weeks and 1 day. The baby is about </span><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;">2 and 1/2 inches long now and had a heartbeat of 176 beats per minute! It was AMAZING to see our sweet little one in 3-d!! What an AWESOME sight! </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;"></span></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;">We are so excited to be able to share everything that is going on with our family and friends....especially those who are not close by! We will be updating belly pics, ultrasound pics, and nursery pics! Please feel free to leave comments at the bottom of the blog! Bare with us as we learn the world of blogging!!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;"></span></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;">We love you all!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333399;">Jim, Katie, and Baby Cobb</span></div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153);font-family:verdana;font-size:18;" ></span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK2_pngQX0p9UNbuV8kGN7D_WSThrWDns9g6nTg3fy7wGQeQSKBVO26IC2hY3bmkxam0hJPat16RQ_hScalAob1M2RyvuWjS3pfCGiVY8Bi0Xs1MbhVX6-UB_w-7Iclt-PhJCmb42HJXY/s1600-h/DSCN1406.JPG"></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Jim and Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00633144124428598686noreply@blogger.com10
