* 6 Month Appointment *

Today was my 6 month doctor appointment! I'm really not officially 6 months until March 3, but whose counting?! The doctor said everything looked great. He told me I had a beautiful stomach. He made a comment about me not having any stretch marks- that made me happy cause I am so scared to get them! I lotion my stomach all day long. My sister in law Summer told me to use Ucerin, and so far it has been a life saver. Not only has it help with stretch marks, but the itching has stopped too! Anyways, he also measured my stomach and listened to the heartbeat, and sent me on my way. Oh wiat, he told me I had to go get the rogam shot in 2 weeks. I have been dreading that!!! I hate shots more then anything. I get all clamy and sick to my stomach just looking at a needle. I guess I need to buck up and just do it! I'll start praying now, so in two weeks it won't be so bad! The only down side to the appointment was when I got on the dang scale. Yes, I have gained more weight! The nurse was rude about it too. She said, " Wow! Okay." I wanted to tell her at least my hairdo doesn't look like something from Foot Loose. I didn't though- I just got my purse and left. All in all it was a good doctor visit. Rylee is still doing good, and only has three more months until we all get to meet her!


My butt is catching up with my stomach!

Front view... not so pretty! You can really see how chubby I am! Oh well I'm pregnant! The ladies at work today took bets on how much weight they thought I had gained... they are so funny. The winner gets a Diet Coke. I'm glad my wiehgt can keep them entertained!

OH honey! You look beautiful, you don't look like you've let yourself go, you look like you have a beautiful baby in your tummy! Don't listen to stupid nurses.

Lynds you look great! Good luck with avoiding the stretch marks. I did the same thing and got stretch marks all over my belly (overnight) only one week before I delivered...I was not happy. Hope you have better luck but if not...then they are your "mommy marks" (that's what Nate calls them):)

Oh Lynds, you're a beautiful pregnant woman! Embrace that you can eat whatever you want now, cuz you won't be able to in 3 months! Trust me, i know!

I'm so happy you're using that name. That was my first choice for Alyssa, but spelled differently. Riley. Chris wasn't crazy about it, and both my brother and sister in law loved it, so they used it. LOVE LOVE LOVE the name. Cute belly pics

Lynds I think you look so cute stop it! We do do a lot of fun things with my family and so do u! We should do more fun family things together haha. I really am so lucky to have Jaqlyn. She is so protective of Connor it is so cute! She definetly looks out for him. Luckily your baby will have a lot of older cousins to look out for her!
