20 Week Ultra Sound

IT'S A BOY! We had our Ultra Sound today and found out we have a boy on the way! Every thing was looking good and measuring right on with our due date. He was very active and didn't want to show us his goods all that much be we got a few good shots to confirm. I have an appointment on Friday and the doctor will have looked over all of the pictures by then to confirm that everything is looking great but our wonderful U/S tech said everything looked normal. I did mention that I have not felt much movement from the baby yet and after looking around we saw that the placenta is in front of the baby and acting like a cushion right now so no need for concern there either. I will count my blessings I can sleep great for now with out feeling much and know that these nights are coming to an end very soon.

Baby Update

It has been a while since I gave you all a baby update. Not much has happened or change but me and baby are doing great. We are both growing tons right now, well me more so than baby I think. I am now 17 weeks along, at my last few appointments Doc said everything is looking good and the heart beat has stayed the same every time at a steady 145/150 bpm. I got to schedule our ultra sound today so 3 more weeks until we know if it is a Corey Jr. or not. Hmmm do I really want to know this already? Yup 20 more weeks to mentally prepare myself for 2 boys in my life, or 20 more weeks of shopping for hair bows and cute outfits.

Sadi

So lately I have had lots of posts of Bailey and I don't want to leave Sadi out. She has been relaxing and watching the birds now that spring is here. This is a picture of Sadi waiting for Corey and Bailey to get back from a walk. Since her injury of a torn ACL in her knee she is no longer aloud to take walks. I try to spoil her and give her a bone as soon as they leave but she would rather watch for them to come home. Poor thing use to love walks. Now that summer is almost here she gets to start her summer rehab again by swimming in Grandma Kragts pool to lose those winter pounds.

My New Best Friend

As many of you have heard Corey and I talk about Bailey being very protective of me even before we new I was pregnant. He has to be right at my side at ALL times. Corey no longer can sit on the couch due to lack of room, (see photo) and Bailey is now trying to take over Corey’s side of the bed too. I now get to shower with him either in the bathroom with me or outside the door crying. If he falls a sleep and I leave the room the poor dog about has a heart attach trying to find me. All of this is very sweet but he thinks he needs to be on my lap all the time and he is NO lap dog. I am glad he is loving me so much but this is going to be a really long pregnancy with all 107lbs of him at my side. In return at least Sadi has been giving Corey lots of love and attention or I might have a depressed husband on my hands too. These old dogs always amaze me!

Pretty Boy

Bailey went to the groomer to get his hair cut today!

After

Happy Birthday Dykstra's

March was the Big 30 for both Tom and Tracy. We all went out to help them celebrate by starting out at Buffalo Wild Wings with the feather bowling room. After that we headed over to the Wiskey River Saloon for some live country music and some great people watching. Welcome to the 30 club Dykstra's we love you both.

Florida

We had a wonderful vacation to Florida. Our Condo was great and very spacious and the Pool was amazing. The first day at the Pool we had the entire pool to ourselves and the other days we had a few people there but didn't have to fight for a chair.

Thursday night we went to the Dog Track. As you can see below we are still smiling. I won $51 on the 1st race we saw and none of us ever won again. We broke even by the time we left with the other 7 races we bet on and the beer Corey drank. Could of been worse I guess.

Saturday we spent the day at Disney World. I had not been to Disney since I was 10 years old so I was very excited to go back. And yes if you do the Math it was 20 years ago.

I didn't exactly follow all of the rules on the warning signs. This one was for the Safari and as I was told by Corey "your everyday driving is worse than going on the Safari ride"

Was very glad I went on this, it was great to see all of the animals so close up.

Magic Kingdom was also a ton of fun I remembered some things from when I was little.

The Castle was awesome to see of course.

We went on a few rides here too. I didn't think I went through the haunted castle when I was little but once we went inside it all came back to me.

I have to say it was much scarier when I was 10.

Sunday we went to a Tigers spring training game.

Verlander Pitched the first few innings not that it helped. Tigers loss 0-2 and had NO hits. I have never been to a no hitter game but was hoping if I saw a no hitter it would be with the Tigers pitching not hitting.

Monday was a cloudy day so we headed over to Universal Studios city walk. This place was very cool. It was free to get in (expect parking of course) and it had all kinds of shops and resturants.

We had dinner at Margaritaville of course.

This was one of Jimmy's real plane's

Overall it was a great trip. We had tons of fun and did LOTS of things. I have million photo's and could keep posting them for hours, but this gave you the highlights of our trip.
