Crazy Week Recap!

Ok, so as my last post promised, we have lots to catch up on!
First on Monday we had our ultrasound.  It definitely is a boy!!   Little Flagan is very healthy (1/10,000 chance of a birth defect) and it looks like he isn't going to be quite as petite as Madison.....  An average baby is 8 ounces at this stage, he is 11 ounces.  I find this very interesting because at my OB appointment on Thursday, I have only gained one pound so far and I have quite the belly..... and I promise I am eating!!  He also is very active and I am very aware these days of when he is awake!




Tuesday Madison started swim class at Williams Pool.  I was a very nervous mommy all day about her starting class.  I wasn't sure if she would like it and I also was nervous that they were going to dunk her and she was going to freak out.  Well turns out, she absolutely loved it!  She squealed as soon as she and Adam entered the water and had a huge smile all class.  And there was no dunking.... yet.





Finally yesterday was Madison's 1st birthday party and today is her birthday.  It is so amazing to think of how far we have come in a year.  One year ago she was so helpless and this morning we all had breakfast together.... Madison fed herself cheerios, apples, and gave herself a bottle, then she got down, walked over to a book and brought it back for me to read it to her..... AMAZING!
Here are some pictures from her party yesterday.... yes it was a princess party!

Lots going on!

First here is my 18 weeks pregnant belly:

We sure have a busy week coming up! Monday we have an ultrasound and should be able to know for sure that my little circus act in my tummy is a boy, they will also do a full anatomy scan.  Tuesday Madison starts swim class.  Thursday I have my monthly OB appointment.  Since spring break is over we have our standard Book Babies, Gymnastics Class, and Kindermusik Class.  Saturday I have a wedding that I will be working all day and...... Sunday we are having Madison's 1st Birthday Party.... her 1st birthday is Monday (I am going to be a mess)!!  So that means stay tuned.... we will have lots to post!
Adam is very engaged in March Madness right now.... here is a video of Madison getting ready for her Daddy to get home for Round 1.

Our garden is also continuing to grow!  One of our tomato plants already has flowers and the corn, basil, and cilantro that we planted are starting to pop through the soil!

16 weeks and Garden

Here I am at 16 weeks pregnant!

Also today Adam and I decided to plant a vegetable and herb garden (well Adam planted and I picked out the goods).
He planted tomatoes, corn, onions, broccoli, orange bell peppers, basil, cilantro, parsley, and thyme.  We will keep you updated on its progress.
Here is the whole thing:
