oops...

So remember my last post when I said there was nothing going on? Well that was definitely not the case these past three weeks. I don't know where the time went!

I'll start from the beginning...

16 weeks

Jake and I spent the weekend in Seattle for Joe and Megan's wedding. It was an action packed weekend and the weather actually cooperated for it being Seattle. On Friday we spent most of the day doing touristy things around downtown. Emily, our own personal tour guide showed us all of the hot spots :) 

We hit the Pike Place Market, saw the disgusting gum wall shown above, and rode the ferris wheel. Not to mention all of the food...

On Saturday we took the ferry over to Silverdale, Wa which was about thirty minutes from the location of the wedding. As you can see our 16 week picture was taken on the day of the wedding. As you can also see my belly is huge!

I'm pretty sure it popped out as soon as I got to Seattle...unless it was all the food I ate since I arrived. At the last minute the ceremony was changed to outdoor since the weather was cooperating, so we took advantage of the scenery for some photo ops.

17 weeks

I missed a belly pic for 17 weeks because we were too distracted by our recent exciting news...it's a BOY!!! We snuck in early to get a peek prior to our 20 week appointment, and needless to say we're really excited. Of course we would have been excited about either gender but we both reeeaaally wanted a boy. And yes, we already named our little guy.

Easton Jacob Blanchard

 

We've liked the name for so long we might as well stick with it! Here are a few shots of our adorable babe.

Now for something I absolutely did not expect:

He's positioned completely face down :)

I guess whenever I pictured a baby in there I just pictured the textbook baby facing up. Apparently our little guy likes to be face down with his arms up by his head. 

18 weeks

I'll post this week tomorrow :) This pregnant girl needs to go to bed.
