Baby Foy goes to Las Vegas!

V E G A S

The first week of April we headed out to Las Vegas for Mikes brothers wedding.

The weather was great, the wedding beautiful and it was fun to see all that Las Vegas had to offer. Even though we all came back with blisters on our feet from walking so much it was definitly worth it!!

I'm on the far left.. and no thats not a bronze butt in front of my belly :-)

Watching the Bellagio fountain show ~

Boy or Girl Foy ????

I just reached my 20th week and got the chance to find out
what we are having.


The news surprised me since I swore I was having the opposite... the old wives
tales were wrong on this one.. they all pointed to a boy...


But a Mini- Miranda is what we are having!!


Yippie!!!!!!!!!!! pigtails and tea sets and super cute outfits are just around the corner.

Fun fact- all 4 of us girls at work are having girls..and all 3 of us Foy/Mosolino girls are having girls as well...

Week 17 *

Baby's skeleton is hardening, changing from rubbery cartilage to bone, and fat is finally accumulating around it. Th umbilical cord is getting thicker and stronger, and those little fingers and toes are now topped by one-of-a-kind prints!!

My girlfriend Natalie sent me the book Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy. Its the naked truth about pregnany and chilbirth...and she is blunt all right!

Its definitly a funny read! I reccomended it to all pregnant ladies~

Zzzzzz

Mike catching me at what I do best these days.... it surely doesn't help to have the worlds softest, cuddely cat laying next to you either!

Growing Family

Spring starts tomorrow! A time for fresh, new beginnings in both nature and in our family.

On the first weekend of April we head out to Vegas for Chris & AnneMaries wedding. We can't wait for their big day.

In May we will have Mikes cousin Sam& Kristy giving birth to their second child. And 2-3 weeks before we have ours...Mikes other cousin Tim & wife Kelly will be having their baby! Our family sure is growing. :-)

My friends Nick & Sarah from St.Cloud just had their baby boy William on Saturday.

I just had to add a picture of him cause he is so dang cute!

Makes me want one NOW!!! :-)

Week 14

Baby Foy is now 14 weeks along

..growth this month is remarkable.

Baby is now 3 and a half inches long and weighs one and a half ounces . The size of a fist.

About now, the fetus can grasp, squint, frown, and grimace. It may even be able to suck its thumb.

One thing that I have noticed is quite the increase in indigestion and heartburn. Tums are with me where ever I go these days. My baby bump is starting to show but i can still fit into all my regular clothes..with a little give. I'm still at my pre-pregnancy weight but it seems like the weight has just shifted around a bit. :-)

Next check up will be in 3 weeks~

Mike turns white

On Tuesday morning I was able to get an early appointment with my doctor to hear the fetal heart tones. Mike was also able to come with me since it was before he left for work.
Little did we know that the appointment would make Mike turn WHITE!

It happened when the Dr was listening to baby's heart.. All sounded good . Heart Rate was 160s. Perfect!! Then the Dr noticed that my belly was slightly larger by the bellybutton then it usually is at this stage of pregnancy. He felt around and said.. either you are carrying the baby really high or you may have Twins in there!

gulp!




Mike turned the oddest color i have ever seen!

It was priceless. Since his mother has twins in her family mike couldn't help but think of what we had missed on the first ultrasound.
Two hours later i was at the Ultrasound and saw that there FOR SURE was just ONE beautiful baby in my belly. I called Mike right away to give him the relieving news. It was kinda fun to think about maybe having twins.. but I'm just glad to have one healthy one!

During the ultrasound they took a few more measurements and told me that baby is right on schedule and the correct weight! I'm just carrying it really high...which hopefully means my shape will stay pretty much the same and I'll just have a basketball for a tummy.

Now that I'm almost 14 weeks the dreaded nausea has really subsided. I did almost loose it in a patients room yesterday when they were throwing up what looked more like should be coming from the other end.

No odd cravings yet. I usually have to eat every 2 hours to keep baby happy. I can eat ice cream now....ever since my trial run at cold stone with my sister Natalie! :-) mmmmm I also am always thirsty!
