Baby update and Spring Break!

Hello! So as most everyone knows, we found out last Monday that we are having a GIRL!!! Yay! So we both had the day off but our appointment wasn't until 2:30 so we had to occupy ourselves until then. We went to Ihop for breakfast and it ended up being super crowded and their kitchen was way behind. We didn't mind since we were trying to kill time but our poor stressed out waitress felt bad that we had to wait so long and I guess at one point they lost Jacob's order. So she didn't even charge us! Whoo hoo free breakfast! Then we decided to go and get Wreck it Ralph and then we took our car through the car wash and got it vacuumed. We went home to watch our movie and then it was finally time to go! I had to drink 20 oz of water beforehand so when we got to the office I was ready to pee my pants. I signed in and the office was packed so I knew it was going to be a while. I bounced around in my chair and I finally couldn't take it anymore, I asked the receptionist if I could just go to the bathroom a little bit because I was about to explode! Haha! She said that was fine. After we finally were called back. The tech started and we immediately saw her spine. She had her back to us and her legs crossed! Stinker! We couldn't see anything so the tech told me I could go and completely empty my bladder so I did gratefully! When I came back she had flipped around so she was facing us, but she had her legs crossed and pulled  up to her chest! No!  She was trying her best to keep her parts covered! Finally we poked her enough where she moved for a split second and we got a good look at what she was! A girl! We were so happy! After the ultrasound we had a Dr's appt. My Dr came in and told us everything looks good, heart rate and size were right on track, but then she told us since she was curled up so tightly they couldn't get a good picture of her heart or her brain. The Dr. wants me to go to a high risk pregnancy clinic to have a more in-depth ultrasound. Now when I heard the words "high risk" I started freaking out. Did she know something and wasn't telling us? I asked her if anything was wrong and she assured me it was just because they couldn't get a good picture. Well I felt a little better but still nervous. My appt is this Thursday and I am hoping all goes well and that she will cooperate too. 

Well onto spring break. Jacob really wanted to go to the Dunes so back in November we started planning a trip with my dad to the dunes to go riding. Well since I'm pregnant I can't ride the atv's but I went for the camping fun. We left on Tuesday and got back Thursday. It was so much fun! Jacob had a blast riding with everyone, my friend Shanae and her family were there as well and so were some other guys from our ward. I had fun sitting around relaxing and eating! By the way I have my appetite back! It's wonderful! I love camping. I want to go back when I'm not pregnant so I can ride! So that's how we spent our spring break. 

Let's see more updates . . . . I am feeling the baby move now! It's so exciting. It's just little flutters but she's definetly  moving now. She likes when I play music. I can eat again which I am so happy about, although there are still some foods that gross me out (like pickles! haha) I have been craving Big Macs (yes, specifically Big Macs) and sour candy. It's so nice to be able to eat again! Anyways, that's all the updates for now! Here are some pictures!
Baby girl!
